5. Using Teflon tape or sealing compound, connect a 5/8" NPT 90º elbow to the water inlet valve
on the left bottom front of the dishwasher. The 90º elbow must be facing downward after
connected otherwise the water supply line will become kinked when attaching the kick plate.
Do not overtighten the 90º elbow or it may damage the water inlet valve and cause a water
leak.
6. Connect the water supply line to the 90º elbow and secure it in the left base channel with duct
tape or cable ties. Make sure the water supply line is not twisted or kinked.
7. Slide the dishwasher carefully into the installation space. If possible, gently pull any excess
lengths of water supply line, drain hose and power cable back as you move it into place.
Ensure the water supply line and power cable remain in their respective channels and do not
get kinked or twisted, and that the dishwasher base does not pinch or crush them.
