5. Install the Plumbing and Grip Rails

CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Ensure a watertight seal on the whirlpool drain.
- Connect the drain to the trap according to the drain manufacturer's instructions.
NOTICE: An access panel will simplify future maintenance.
- Install the faucet valving according to the faucet manufacturer's instructions. Do not install the faucet trim until
instructed. Open the hot and cold water supplies, and check the supply connections for leakage.
- Run water into the whirlpool, and check the drain connections for leakage.
- If your whirlpool requires grip rails, install them now according to the installation instructions packed with the
grip rails.

6. Make Electrical Connections

NOTE: The whirlpool model number is printed on a label near the whirlpool pump. This label also identifies the
electrical rating of the whirlpool. All whirlpools come equipped with a wiring junction box and will only
operate at 220 V/240 V and at 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the pump to a properly grounded
Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) or Earth-Leakage Circuit-Breaker (ELCB). This will provide additional
protection against line-to-ground shock hazard. A 220/240 V, 20 A, 50/60 Hz dedicated circuit is required.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Make sure the power has been disconnected before performing the following
procedures.
- The whirlpool controls and system have been prewired at the factory. A licensed electrician should make a
routine service connection to the junction box.
- Connect service to the junction box. The junction box contains blue, brown and green with a yellow stripe colored
wires and a ground lug.
- Provide a separate equipment earthing conductor for the earth lug located inside the junction box. The earthing
conductor must not be connected to any current-carrying conductor. Follow local electrical codes.
- Bond in accordance with national and local codes.
- A wiring harness has been prewired at the factory. It allows communication between the keypad, neckjets,
valving (if equipped) and the control. No additional wiring is required, but ensure that all wires are securely
fastened.
NOTE: Your wiring harness includes an antenna for the optional remote control. Do not alter or damage this
antenna during installation.
