SAFETY TIPS

• Disconnect the power before servicing the dishwasher.

• Reconnect all grounding devices after repairs are complete. This includes

all grounding wires that are attached by screw and ring connector as well
as the power input, whether cordset and outlet or hardwired.

• Install the dishwasher on a properly fused and grounded dedicated circuit.

• Steam is HOT! Use care when working with live steam.

• Do not use the open door as a step or a resting place for dishes, pots and

pans, and other heavy items.

• Use ONLY detergent and drying agents developed for automatic
dishwashers. DO NOT use detergents made for hand-washing dishes.

• The dishwasher must be set on firm and even flooring that is at the same
level as the kitchen flooring for the ease of installation and servicing.

• Do not leave the racks out of the dishwasher. Children may be tempted
top play inside the dishwasher.

• If the dishwasher is not used for long periods (vacation, seasonal home, et
al.) turn off the water valve.

• Touch the buttons with your fingers only. Do not poke them with forks,
screwdrivers, or similar items.

• Do not use the dishwasher to wash items other than dishes and items
used in food preparation. Do not put other items, like aquaria, toilet seats,
bedpans, and other items in it. It is a dishwasher and not an autoclave.

INSTALLATION

Installation is covered briefly for the servicer who may need to uninstall and
reinstall the dishwasher for repairs. For new installations, please refer to the
installation guide that was supplied with the dishwasher.

• We recommend a location as close to the sink as possible (but not directly
under it) for easy connection to water and drain lines.

• The installation must be within 10’ (3 m) of the sink for proper drainage.

• If the dishwasher is installed in a corner (next to an adjacent wall), there

must be 2” (50 mm) clearance.

• The floor under the dishwasher should be at the same level as the rest of
the room so the dishwasher can slide in and out easily for service.

Drill a 1½” hole on either side to allow
for the drain hose, water supply hose,
and electrical cable. The opening must
be in an area within 4” (100 mm) of the
back wall and 4” (100 mm) of the floor.

If there is a floor in the cabinet under
the sink, it will be necessary to cut
through it to connect the water, drain,
and electrical cable under the sink.

The dishwasher must be supplied with
120 V
on the rating plate and connected to a
properly fused and grounded dedicated
20-amp circuit.

The wire or water supply can be fed
from either side, and both from the
same side, depending upon source
location.

They must be run in the channels
under the dishwasher, as shown in the
drawing.

LDF9810ST DISHWASHER

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY PREPATATION

The dishwasher can be hardwired if necessary and if permitted by local code. We
recommend the use of a dishwasher installation kit, available at most hardware
and home supply stored. This kit includes a cordset, a flexible water supply line,
and the elbow connector necessary to connect it. Using a cordset requires an
electric outlet under the sink accessible when the dishwasher is installed. The
cordset makes it easier to disconnect the dishwasher from power while working
on it and makes removal and replacement easier. As stated earlier, installation
requires a properly fused and grounded dedicated circuit.

WATER SUPPLY PREPARATION

The dishwasher may be connected to either hot or cold water. If the hot water
can not maintained below 149° F, the dishwasher must be connected to the cold
water supply. Lay out the water supply line as indicated on page 14 of this
training manual. Use sealing tape or joint compound to avoid leaks.

INSTALLATION

Adjust the legs to the required height
for the dishwasher to slide under the
countertop and be level. Check the
level using a spirit level.

Attach the leveling feet kit to allow for
fine tuning when the dishwasher is
pushed into place.

To complete the installation:
Remove the lower cover.
Make sure the legs are adjusted and

the dishwasher is level.
Lay out the electrical cable, water

supply tube, and drain hose as
shown.

Slide the dishwasher carefully back
into place.

Make the appropriate connections, as
directed below.

LDF9810ST Page 9 DISHWASHER

LDF9810ST DISHWASHER

DRAIN CONNECTION

The drain hose must be connected in a manner that meets the local plumbing
code. If the end of the drain hose does not fit the available connector, an adapter
may be obtained from a local hardware or plumbing supplier.

The rubber end can be cut off for the
correct size attachment.

This drawing shows the drain line
installed with a rise in the drain pipe
but no air gap. It can also be with an
air gap installed. Be sure to observe
the clearances listed.

Most garbage disposers have a
dishwasher drain fitting built in to
them. If your installation does not
include a disposer, you can use a

See supplementary drain information on
page 50 of this training manual.

special tail piece with a drain
attachment available at most
hardware and home supply stores.

WATER CONNECTION

Turn off the water supply and connect
the elbow to the inlet valve.

Connect the flexible supply tube to the
elbow.

Use sealing tape to make all
connections.

Make sure the supply line is not kinked.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Use wire
connectors and
replace the
cover on the
junction box.
(12/2 w/ ground,
20-amps)

LDF9810ST Page 10 DISHWASHER

LDF9810ST DISHWASHER

FINAL INSTALLATION

1. Turn on the water at the valve under the sink.

2. Turn on the power at the fuse or breaker (or plug in the cordset at the
outlet under the sink.

3. Run the dishwasher through one QUICK cycle to check the operation and
to check for water leaks.

4. Replace the lower cover.

When the door is closed, the top edge with the controls should be under the
countertop.

LDF9810ST Page 13 DISHWASHER

LDF9810ST DISHWASHER

ADDING DETERGENT

Detergent must be added to the dispenser before the start of every cycle except
RINSE ONLY. The detergent chamber holds 1.4 oz. (40 g) when full. If the
dishes are only moderately dirty, it might be possible to use less detergent.

Press the latch button to open the
detergent chamber.

Add detergent in the proper amount.
(See chart, below.)

Close the cover and be sure the latch
clicks.

If pre-wash cycle is selected (in SOAK
or POWER SCRUB only), add the
appropriate amount of pre-wash
detergent in the recess on the door
cover. When you close the dishwasher
door, the detergent will fall into the tub.

NOTE: Too much detergent can leave
a film on the dishes.

CYCLE

Amt. Detergent

Soak Full (0.35 oz.) ¾ full (1.05 oz.)

Power Scrub Full (0.35 oz.) ¾ full (1.05 oz.)

Normal None ½ full (0.7 oz.)

Steam Delicate None ½ full (0.7 oz.)

Quick None ¼ full (0.3 oz.)

Rinse Only None ½ full (0.7 oz.)

LDF9810ST Page 14 DISHWASHER

LDF9810ST DISHWASHER

ADDING RINSE AID

Turn the round cap counterclockwise
and remove it.

Fill the reservoir. It holds 4.8 oz.
(145 ml)

Replace the cap and lock it.

Adjust the rinse-aid setting
as necessary.

The factory setting for rinse aid dispensing is 3. Too little rinse aid contributes to
spotting, streaking, and poor drying performance. Too much rinse aid causes
foaming, which leads to poor washing performance.

How often you refill the dispenser depends upon your washing habits, including
the rinse aid setting, the number of loads per month you wash, and other factors.
The indicator light will illuminate when the level is low at the start of a load.
