Toe Kick

The toe kick is a decorative panel covering the
machine area of the dishwasher. The panel
provides a safety barrier, closing the front of the
dishwasher machine compartment. The toe kick
prevents injury from electrical components under
the dishwasher. To remove the panel, remove
two 1/4-inch hex-head screws and pull the panel
away from the dishwasher.

Junction Box and House Wiring
Connection
The junction box is located behind the toe kick
on the right-hand side of the dishwasher. The
junction box is where the 120 VAC house voltage
connects to the dishwasher. The dishwasher
may be hardwired or an optional cord may
be installed (available separately, Part #:
WX09X70910), which plugs into a wall outlet and
connects to the harness plug into the control (see
the separate Installation instructions for more
information). The cover is held in place with a
1/4-inch hex-head screw on the left side, and tab
on the right side. To remove the cover, remove
the screw and pull out and left to release the tab.
