• Do not use existing holes unless they are in the
target area.
• Failure to properly locate the hole for the water
and drain lines may prevent the dishwasher
from installing flush with the cabinets and could
result in kinked, pinched, crushed, stressed or
damaged lines.
Installing Moisture Barrier Tape

of the countertop to protect the surface from
condensation when the appliance is opened.

Clean and dry the area on the underside of
the countertop and the sides of the cabinet
opening where the tape will be applied.
2
Remove the protective film from the tape.
3

waterproof materials, the moisture barrier tape
is not required.
