Tub Gasket

Tub Gasket
The tub gasket seals the top and sides of the tub to
the door. The retainer is part of the stainless steel
tub. The seal pushes into the retainer area of the
tub, and no sealant or RTV is used to install the tub
gasket. When installing the tub gasket, there will be
a 2 inch extension at the bottom of the tub on each
side.
2" of tub gasket extends toward
center of tub
To Remove Tub Gasket: Pull the gasket from the
retainer area.
Tub Gasket Installation
1. The center of the gasket has a mark which is
placed pointing to the inside of the dishwasher.
This position will orient the gasket wiper to face
the inside of the dishwasher and to the inner
door.

2. Start by placing the mark down and align with
the tub latch. Push the gasket into the track,
working outward to the top corners.
3. Push the gasket into the track through the
corners, making sure the wiper portion of the
gasket does not turn inward or outward causing
the gasket to not have an even plane around
the corners. Stretching the gasket may cause
the gasket to roll in or out, which will cause the
new gasket to leak. If the gasket wiper rolls in or
out, pull the gasket out of the track and reinsert
into place.
The wiper on the Gasket
must make a smooth turn
through the corner
