LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Dishwasher must be fully enclosed (top, sides, back, and oor) upon installation. A side panel kit is available from your dealer forinstalling your dishwasher at the end of your cabinetry.
An optional moisture barrier accessory is also available for installing underneath a wooden countertop. See the “Tools and Parts” section at the front of the guide for part details andorders.
Check location where dishwasher will be installed. The location must provide:
■ Convenient access for loading and unloading dishes. Corner
locations require a 2" (51 mm) minimum clearance between the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet.
■ Easy access to water, electricity, and drain:
■ Grounded electrical supply is required.
■ This dishwasher has a water heating feature and also
requires a connection to a hot water supply line.
■ Make sure pipes, wires and drain hose are within the
shaded area shown in the “Product and Cabinet Opening Dimensions” section.
■ Do not run drain lines, water lines, or electrical wiring where
they can interfere with or contact dishwasher motor or legs.
■ Shelter dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher
against freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
NOTE: If dishwasher will be left unused for a period of time or in a location where it may be subject to freezing, have it winterized by authorized service personnel.
■ If installed in new construction, ush the water supply line
of debris before connecting it to the ll valve. If it is not ushed, debris from the water supply could plug the ll valve screen.
■ A square opening for proper operation and appearance
■ The cabinet front to be perpendicular to oor
■ A level oor
Helpful Hint: If oor at front of opening is not level with oor at rear of opening, shims may be used to level dishwasher.
NOTE: To avoid shifting during dishwasher operation, shims must be securely attached to the oor.
■ The location where the dishwasher will be installed must
provide clearance between motor and ooring. Motor should not touch the oor.
■ Do not install dishwasher over carpeted ooring.

DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
■ A new drain hose is supplied with your dishwasher.
Ifdrainhose is not long enough, use a new drain hose witha maximum length of 12 ft (3.7 m) that meets all currentAHAM/ IAPMO test standards, is resistant to heat and detergent, and ts the 1" (25 mm) drain connector of thedishwasher. See the “Tools and Parts” section at the front ofthe guide for part details and orders.
NOTE: Do not connect multiple drain hoses together.
■ Make sure to connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer
inlet above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (508 mm) minimum above the oor. It is recommended that the drain hose either be looped up and securely fastened to the underside of the counter or be connected to an air gap.
■ Make sure to use an air gap if the drain hose is connected
tohouse plumbing lower than 20" (508 mm) above suboororoor.

Cut insulation blanket along perforation for cabinet opening height of 331/2" (851 mm). For other cabinet opening heights, donot cut the insulation blanket.
Built-up oors: If the kitchen oor is higher than the cabinet opening’s oor - for example, the kitchen oor tile does not extend into the cabinet opening - add shims, as needed, in the area shown to bring the dishwasher up to 34" (864 mm) below the countertop.
NOTE: Shims must be securely attached to oor to avoid movement when the dishwasher is in use.
6. Remove foam block
Foam block
Remove and discard the foam blocks (if blocks are present; notall models have them) located above the front legs on eachside of the dishwasher. The blocks cover the rope/link pulleys on the dishwasher.

Place wires inside terminal box. Replace the cover by inserting the hooks of the terminal cover into the slots in the oor of the terminal box and sliding the cover tight against the back wall where wires come in. Make sure wires are tucked inside the box and not pinched by the cover.
Put the terminal box back on the crossbar with the tab in place. Use a 1/4" (6.35 mm) nut driver and the screw removed in Step 22 to secure the terminal box to the crossbar.
Once the terminal box has been remounted on the dishwasher, tuck any excess length or slack over nearby components or clip them back into the nearby clips to help keep them off the oor.
NOTE: Route power cord out the rear of the dishwasher. Do not plug cord into an outlet until instructed to do so.
