iMPORTANT: If wheels were removed, cover the floor
when moving the dishwasher. Slowly move dishwasher
completely into cabinet opening. Do not kink or pinch
water line, drain hose, power supply cord or direct wire
between dishwasher and cabinet. Remove cardboard
from under dishwasher.
NOTE: It is all right if dishwasher fits tightly into cabinet
opening. Do not remove insulation blanket- the blanket
reduces the sound level.
NOTE: If using power cord, make sure to route end
through hole in cutout before sliding dishwasher into
cabinet opening.
Align front of dishwasher door panel with front of
cabinet doors. You may need to adjust alignment to be
even with your cabinets.
Check that leveling legs are firmly against the floor.
Close and latch the door, and place level against the
front panel. Check that dishwasher is centered from front
to back in the opening. If needed, adjust leveling leg until
dishwasher is plumb. Repeat for other side of dishwasher.
Helpful Tip: Push up on front of dishwasher to raise
dishwasher offthe ground to adjust front legs. With
some installations, it may be easier to adjust the front leg
using the sA6"hex head socket or adjustable wrench.
Place level against top front opening of tub. Check that
dishwasher is level from side to side. If dishwasher is not
level, adjust front legs up or down until dishwasher is
level.
