NOTE:

When it is not possible to attach the dishwasher to the 

cabinet or the underside of the counter top, you should 

install tip guards to prevent the machine from tipping when 

you open the door. Sold individually.

It’s necessary to fasten the dishwasher to the cabinet so 

it won’t tilt when the door is opened or if something heavy 

is placed on the door. Use only the stainless steel screws 

provided with the machine.
1.  Use  option  A  for  U.S.  or  European 

standard installations. Use option B only 

for European standard installations, or 

U.S. installations where there is a hard 

counter-top such as tile or marble.

2.  Cover the screw heads with the plastic 

plugs provided with the machine.

3.  When the machine is properly attached, 

check that the feet are tight against the 

floor and that the machine is level.

NOTE: 

Be sure to use white spacers to keep from over-tightening 

the mounting screws.

adjusted vertically.

1.  Press the grey catches towards each other to release 

the toe kick brackets.

2.  Pull out the toe kick brackets as far as the installation 

requires to provide the proper toe kick depth.

3.   Once the toe kick brackets are at the appropriate 

depth, press the grey catches away from each other 

to lock the toe kick brackets in place.

4.  The back side of the toe kick has hooks that will hang 

the toe kick on the toe kick brackets. Lift the toe kick 

up and let the hooks slide onto the brackets as you 

lower the toe kick to the floor.
