IMPORTANT
For 24" cabinets, the water line
opening must be in the location
as shown.
With cabinets deeper than
24", there is room to t the
pipe behind the appliance
and the wall so there are no
requirements for the water line
lead out position.
The free length of the water sup-
ply line must be at least 31-1/2"
(800 mm) when the tube comes
out of the prescribed opening.
Do not install the shut-o valve
behind the appliance.
For appliance with panel to be flush, adjacent cabinetry depth must equal appliance depth (24") plus panel thickness (5/8" - 3/4").
This is where the power cord extends from the back of the appliance.
Free length of the power cord = 90 inch (2280 mm)
Be sure to take these speci­fications into consideration when choosing the location of the electrical outlet.
