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 Approved clamp connector to
the house wiring junction box. If using conduit, use a
UL Listed/CSA Approved 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 7/8" strain relief.
3 wire connectors.
Part Number 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.
Drain 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.
