Moving the Machine Into Place
Position the machine in front of the cabinet
opening. Make the preliminary height adjustment
while the dishwasher is in front of the opening.
Pull out the drain hose to ensure there are no
sharp bends. On the bottom rear of the
dishwasher there is a black ziptie around the
rubber buffer that holds the circulation pump in
place. Cut the ziptie and remove it. Start to feed
the water, electric,and drain lines into position.
Make sure you've put the protective slides on the
rear legs to prevent damaging the floor when
sliding the unit into place. Gently slide the unit
into the dishwasher opening. As you do this, feed
the drain line into the drain line opening. Also
feed the electrical and water lines to right front of
the dishwasher.

CONNECTING THE ELECTRICAL CABLES

If the cord is not long enough, or if a hard wire installation is needed, follow the steps below to complete the electrical
connection.
WARNING!
Before connecting the electrical cables, make sure the
electrical power supply is off at the circuit breaker or
fuse box.
1. Connect electrical wire with an UL-agency listed strain
relief bushing (if non-metallic cable is to be used).
2. Connect white wire from electrical power supply cord
to neutral lead.
3. Connect black wire from electrical power supply to live
lead.
4. Connect ground wire to ground connection screw on
bottom.
N N O O T T E E : : When doing a hard-wire installation, remove the supplied power cord.

CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY

Refer to page 5 for proper plumbing instructions.
Flush the water supply line prior to connecting it to the inlet valve of the machine. The unit has a float switch in the
base pan to protect against flooding. If the inlet valve connection is not sealed properly, water may leak into the base
pan and activate the float switch. Make sure the connection is sealed and not leaking before completing the
installation.
Testing for Leaks
•Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.
•Turn the power on at breaker/fuse box and test the dishwasher operation by running a Rinse cycle. (This should take
about four minutes.)
•Turn off the electrical power and check for leaks under the dishwasher.
•Make sure that no kinks have developed in the drain lines.
If there are no leaks and the dishwasher seems to be working properly, continue with the installation.

ADJUSTING THE LEVELING LEGS

NOTE:
It may be necessary to install a wood trim above the dishwasher if the standard toe space is maintained or
you can raise the dishwasher to fit using the leveling legs.
Adjust the feet of the dishwasher with a 1/2" (1.3 cm) wrench to fit the opening. The dishwasher may have a maximum
inclination of 2 degrees without affecting its performance.
When the legs are adjusted, tighten the locking nuts to the base pan.

Open the dishwasher door and remove the screws that attach the side and top trim to the dishwasher. Adjust the side
and top trim to the desired hole setting in the side and top trim and replace screws. Be sure to attach the side and top
trim from inside the dishwasher.
When using a 23 5/8" (60.0 cm) cutout, it will be necessary to remove the side trim.
