Shim
Note: The wood runners that come with the shipping base work
well for shims.
Built-up floors: If the kitchen floor is higher than the cabinet
opening's floor - for example, the kitchen floor tile does not
extend into the cabinet opening - add shims, as needed, in the
area shown to bring cabinet floor up to same level as the kitchen
floor.
NOTE: Shims must be securely attached to floor to avoid
movement when the dishwasher is in use.

Route cable from power supply through cabinet hole. (Cable
must extend to the right front side of cabinet opening.) Tape
cable to the floor in area shown. This will prohibit cable from
moving when dishwasher is moved into cabinet opening.
