STEP 7 INSTALL DRAIN HOSE TO
DISHWASHER DRAIN PORT
Skip this step if drain hose has been preinstalled.
In this step you will need the drain hose and
clamp set aside in Step 1.
IMPORTANT – Prevent drain hose damage and
possible leaks. Be careful not to nick or cut the
drain hose.
• Route the small end of the drain hose from the
left side of the dishwasher through the strain relief
attached to the dishwasher frame and toward the
center of the dishwasher as shown in the figures.
• Place the hose clamp over the small end of the drain
hose.
• Push the small end of the drain hose over the drain
port on the collection chamber, making sure it is fully
seated against the hose stop.
• Tighten the hose clamp to at least 15 inch-pounds of
torque.
NOTE: The drain hose supplied with the dishwasher
is approximately 78" long. If a longer hose is needed,
a 10-foot-long hose may be purchased from an
authorized GE Appliances dealer. The 10-foot-long
hose is part number GPF10S.

Tip: Avoid unnecessary service charges for drain
issues.
Make sure the drain hose connection is leak-free and
the hose is routed through the strain relief so it will not
