DISHWASHER PREPARATION

Dishwasher preparation involves four tasks:
• Installing the Mounting Brackets
• Removing the Toe Panel
C
• Installing the 90° elbow fitting
• Junction Box Preparation
Installing the Mounting Brackets
CAUTION: Before installing the supplied
mounting brackets (letter E in the Materials
Figure 10/Ilus. 10
Supplied section of this manual), decide
which method of securing the dishwasher
into its enclosure will be used. Once the
mounting brackets are installed on the
dishwasher, removing them is difficult and
will damage the mounting brackets and the
dishwasher.
The dishwasher can be secured into its
enclosure in two ways:
1) Top Mount is used for countertops made
of wood or other materials that can easily
drilled. Orient the mounting brackets as
shown in Figure 11, letter A, and position the
two small tabs on the mounting brackets
over the two slots on the dishwasher's front
corners. Push the mounting brackets down
firmly to insert the tabs into the slots.
2) Side Mount is used for countertops
made of marble, granite, or other very hard
materials that cannot be easily drilled. Bend
the mounting brackets along the small holes
and in the same direction as the two small
Figure 11/Ilus. 11
tabs. Orient the mounting brackets as
shown in Figure 11, letter B, and position the
two small tabs on the mounting brackets
over the two slots on the dishwasher's front
corners. Push the mounting brackets down
firmly to insert the tabs into the slots.
