GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS
For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. The dishwasher is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service representative if you are in doubt whether the
dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
For a permanently connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded
metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-
grounding conductor must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment-
grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.
SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS
Contact a qualified electrician.
Ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in
conformance with all national and local codes and ordinances.
You must have:
• 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15 or 20 amp fused electrical supply.
• Copper wire only.
We recommend:
• A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
• Aseparate circuit.
If direct wiring dishwasher:
• Use flexible, armored or nonmetallic sheathed, copper wire
with grounding wire that meets the wiring requirements for
your home and local codes and ordinances.
Use strain relief method provided with house wiring junction
box or install a UL-listed/CSA-certified clamp connector to the
house wiring junction box. If using conduit, use a
UL-listed/CSA-certified conduit connector.
If connecting dishwasher with a power supply cord:
• Use Power Supply Cord Kit (Part Number 4317824) marked
for use with dishwashers. Kit contents include:
• Voltex, Inc., UL listed 16 gauge 3 wire power supply cord
with 3 prong grounded plug.
• Neer C-500 _/_" strain relief.
• 3 wire connectors.
• Part No. 302797 grommet.
Follow the kit instructions for installing the power supply cord.
• Power supply cord must plug into a mating three prong,
grounded outlet, located in the cabinet next to the dishwasher
opening. Outlet must meet all local codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT: If you plan to install a garbage disposer, an
additional separate 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15 or 20 amp fused
electrical supply is required.
Use the new drain hose supplied with your dishwasher. If this
is not long enough, use a new drain hose with maximum
length of 12 ft (3.7 m) that meets all current AHAM/IAPMO test
standards, is resistant to heat and detergent, and fits the
1" (2.5 cm) drain connector of the dishwasher.
Connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer inlet above drain
trap in house plumbing and 20" (50.8 cm) minimum above the
floor. It is recommended that the drain hose either be looped
up and securely fastened to the underside of the counter, or
be connected to an air gap.
Use a drain air gap if the drain hose is connected to house
plumbing lower than 20" (50.8 cm) above the subfloor or floor.
Use 1/2"(1.3 cm) minimum I.D. drain line fittings.
