• If a longer drain hose is required, and you did not
purchase the GPF10S drain hose, add up to 42" length,
for a total of 120" (10 feet), to the factory- installed

IMPORTANT – When connecting drain line to
disposer, check to be sure that
drain plug has been removed.
DISHWASHER WILL NOT DRAIN IF

Tip: Avoid unnecessary service call charges for a
no drain complaint.
Make sure excess drain hose has been pulled through
the cabinet opening. This will prevent excess hose
in the dishwasher cavity from becoming kinked or
crushed by the dishwasher.
