MOVING THE MACHINE INTO PLACE

WARNING!

Make sure you put the protective slides on the legs 
to prevent damaging the floor when you slide the unit 
into place (see page 6).

As you do this, feed the drain line and inlet hose into the 

access hole(s) in the side of the cabinet. Use caution 

when sliding the dishwasher into place. The protective 

slides could cause damage to certain types of soft 

flooring.

WARNING!

Be careful of sharp edges.

1.  Position the machine in front of the cabinet opening.
2.  Push the plastic feet into place on all steel feet 

(included in document bag). (Only certain models.)

3.  Start by measuring the height from the floor to the 

bottom edge of the counter top. Measure the height 

from the floor to the top edge of the dishwasher.

4.  Loosen the lock nuts on the dishwasher’s steel feet 

using a 5/8˝ (16 mm) open-ended wrench. Screw the 

lock nuts down as close to the floor as possible.

5.  Make the height adjustment while the dishwasher is 

in front of the opening. Adjust all feet by turning them 

clockwise to raise or counterclockwise to lower the 

dishwasher.

6.  Check that there is a 1/8 inch (3 mm) space between 

the top of the dishwasher door and the underside of 

the countertop.

7.  Tighten the lock nuts on the rear feet.

8.  Pull out the drain hose to ensure there are no sharp 

bends.

9.  Start to feed water and drain lines and electric cord 

(if necessary) into the access hole(s) in the cabinet.

10. Gently slide the unit into the dishwasher opening. As 

you do this, feed the drain line and inlet hose into the 

access hole(s) in the side of the cabinet.

11.

 

If installing in a metal cabinet, the hole(s) for the drain 

hose and connection pipe must be fitted with edge 

protectors/rubber grommets.

12. Place the spirit level on the dishwasher door to check 

that the machine is level and adjust if necessary. The 

door must be fully closed!

13. Make any final adjustments to the front feet. (The 

machine may have an inclination of 3/16˝ (5 mm) 

maximum without affecting its performance.)

14. When the front feet are properly adjusted, tighten the 

lock nuts to the base pan.

15. Once the steel feet are properly adjusted, tighten the 

two rubber feet against the floor. The rubber feet now 

prevent the machine from tipping over.
