Tip: Pull lower rack out, about halfway. Check to be sure the
rack does not roll forward or back into dishwasher. If the rack
�������
rolls in either direction, the dishwasher must be leveled again.
• If door hits the tub, the dishwasher is not installed correctly.
Adjust leveling legs to align door to tub.
IMPORTANT
– After leveling, verify that the
dishwasher is still in the correct position shown in

STEP 13 SECURE DISHWASHER TO
COUNTERTOP OR CABINET
In this step you will need
the 2 Phillips special head
screws set aside prior to
Step 1. The dishwasher
must be secured to the
countertop or the cabinet
sides. When countertops
are made of wood,
use Method 1. When
countertops are granite or
other materials that will not
accept screws, use Method
2 to secure dishwasher at the sides.
IMPORTANT
Drive screws straight
and flush. Protruding
screw heads will
scratch the top or
sides of the control
panel and can interfere
with door closing.
Method 1
Secure dishwasher to wood countertop
• Fasten the dishwasher to the underside of the countertop
with the 2 Phillips special head screws provided.
Method 2
Secure dishwasher with side-mounting brackets
• Remove plug buttons (one on each side).
• Install screws through the dishwasher side mount bracket
and into the adjacent cabinet on each side. Reinstall plug
buttons.
