Complete Installation - KitchenAid W10078153B Installation Instructions Manual

Bottom sound pad installation
1. Remove the bottom sound pad from inside the
dishwasher and take it out of the plastic bag.
2. Place pad on the floor in front of the dishwasher, making
sure lettering is facing up and vinyl pad faces down.
3. Fold up and hold the side panels down. Carefully slide
the pad toward the back of the dishwasher as far as it
will go, making sure not to push or pull any wires or
hoses. (Do not force.) Side panels will open to proper
position.
NOTE: If there are pipes or other obstructions coming up
through the floor, you will need to cut a slit in the pad to
fit around the obstacle.
4. Fold the front end of the pad up into position. Make sure
the vinyl pad is tucked up behind the door and the
dishwasher front legs, as shown.
