CUSTOM WOOD PANELS
If custom wood panels are to be used, they should
be
l/4"
thick.
Length
and
width
dimensions
should
be the same as front
panel inserts. If wood
panels
are less than
l/4"
thick
they
must
be
shimmed
up to the required
l/4"
with
proper size
back
up
board
(corrugated,
masonite,
etc.).
If
panels are thicker
than
l/4",
the panel edges will
have to be trimmed
down on all four sides.
Refer to Fig. 10 for dimensions
of custom panels
greater
than
l/4"
thick.
For custom
panels l/4"
thick and less, use outside dimensions
only.
When wood
panels are used, heavier door springs,
#C-240418,
should
be
ordered
(2
required).
CAUTION:
The finish applied to the wooden front
panels should
be applied
to both
the front
and
back sides and all edges, and must be waterproof
since a certain amount
of moist air does discharge
from the machine.
CAUTION
To protect
against possible rupture
of the fill valve, BE
SURE water
lines leading to the dishwasher,
as well as
water
lines
in the dishwasher,
are protected
against
freezing.
Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty.
If the dishwasher
is to be left unused and sujected to
freezing
temperatures,
it must be prepared as follows
to
avoid fill valve damage: Turn
off electrical
power and
shut off water supply
at the hand valve. Remove lower
panel.
Disconnect
outlet
line at the check valve. This
permits water to drain from the dishwasher
tank, pump
and drain line. Disconnect
both the inlet and outlet

to control
water
drained

trical power.
