Site Preparation

It is recommended that a thorough site inspection be conducted PRIOR to unpacking and moving this appliance.

• Please read this installation manual and

particularly the safety instructions completely and carefully. They will save you time and effort and help to ensure optimum dishwasher performance.

• Be sure to observe all listed warnings and

cautions. Look particularly for the icons with exclamation marks inside. The information icon also will provide important references.

WARNING

Indicates a potentially hazardous

situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous

situation which, if not avoided,

may result in injury. It may also be used

to alert against unsafe practices.

NOTICE

Indicates a potentially hazardous

situation which, if not avoided,

may result in damage to the dishwasher,

the tableware, the equipment, or

the environment.

In addition to these instructions, the dishwasher shall be installed:

• In accordance with all local codes or, in absence of a local code,

• In the United States, with the national Electric Code,

• In Canada, with the Canadian Electric Code C22.1-latest edition/Provincial and Municipal codes and/or local codes.

WARNING

Read these installation instructions completely before installing and follow them carefully. Save these installation instructions and pass them on to any future user.

When installing the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• The dishwasher should only be converted from cord-connected to permanently connected by an authorized service representative.

• Installation and repair should be performed by a qualified installer. Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.

NOTICE

Installation should be performed by an insured licensed plumber, contractor, or trained installer. Installation performed by persons other than this could result in improper installation and property damage.

NOTICE

• Do not discard any bags or items that come with the original package until after the entire installation has been completed.

• DO NOT operate the appliance if damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or if it has missing or broken parts.

• Also follow the safety instructions of the use and care guide.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to persons, the installer must ensure that the dishwasher is completely enclosed at the time of installation.

• Only connect the dishwasher to the power supply when all installation and plumbing work is complete.

• If the dishwasher is installed in a location that experiences freezing temperatures (e.g. in a vacation home, cabin, etc.), you must drain all the water from the dishwasher’s interior. Water system ruptures that occur as a result of freezing are not covered by warranty.

• Dishwasher must be secured to adjacent cabinetry using the brackets provided. Failure to do this may cause damage to property or bodily injury.

• Connect to a properly rated, protected, and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload. The dishwasher is designed for an electrical supply of 120V (volts), 60Hz (hertz), AC, connected to a dishwasher-dedicated, properly grounded electrical circuit with a fuse or breakers rated for 15 amperes. Electrical supply conductors shall be a minimum of #16 AWG copper wire rated at 167°F (75°C) or higher. These requirements must be met to prevent injury and machine damage. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

• DO NOT use any extension cord or portable outlet device to connect the dishwasher to a power supply.

• Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, small pieces, etc., are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!

• Remove the dishwasher door when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it. Ensure that the appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

• Old appliances may contain materials that can be recycled. Please contact your local recycling authority about the possibility of recycling these materials.

NOTICE

• The dishwasher drain hose must be installed with a drain loop at least 28” (710mm) off the cabinet floor; otherwise the dishwasher may not drain properly.

• This dishwasher is intended for residential use only and should not be used in commercial establishments.

• New Installation: If the dishwasher is a new installation, most of the work must be done before the dishwasher is moved into place.

• Replacement: If the dishwasher is replacing another dishwasher, check the existing dishwasher connections for compatibility with the new dishwasher, and replace parts as necessary.

• Inspect the Dishwasher: After unpacking the dishwasher and prior to installation, thoroughly inspect the dishwasher for possible freight or cosmetic damage. Report any damage immediately.
