Installation
STEP 14: PUSH DISHWASHER INTO
FINAL POSITION
, Check the tub insulation blanket, if equipped, to be sure it is
smoothly wrapped around the tub. It should not be "bunched
up" and it must not interfere with the door springs. If the
insulation is "bunched up" or interfering with the springs,
straighten and recenter the blanket prior to sliding the
dishwasher into its final position.
. Slide the dishwasher into the final position by pushing on the
sides of the door panel. Do not use a knee or push on the
center of the panel. If you do, damage to the panel will likely
result.
