INSTALLATION
2.1
Pre-Install checklist
□
Unpack unit. Retain packing material until installation is
successful. Remove packing material from inside the
dishwasher.
□
Inspect parts to ensure you have all the necessary materials.
□
Flush household hot water supply for at least two minutes.
□
Measure the enclosure area. The opening must be at least
34" (87 cm) high and 23-5/8" (60-61 cm) wide.
□
The opening must be close enough to the sink for water line
and drain hose plumbing access.
□
Unit must be installed close enough to the sink so that drain
hose length does not exceed 92" (234 cm) and a high loop is
raised at least 20" (51 cm) above the floor.
□
Wooden openings must be sanded smooth and metal
openings must be covered by a protective gasket.
□
Is your water heater set at 120°F (49°C) and does water
pressure measure 15-145 psi (1-10 bar)?
□
If installing in a corner, the dishwasher door must clear
cabinet hardware.
□
Determine mounting method based on dishwasher model and
countertop type, whether top or side mount.
2.2
Alignment
Gently rest the unit on its back, taking care not to crush the drain
hose. Remove the toe panel(s). Loosen front feet slightly.
Remove junction box cover and retain for later use. Place
dishwasher upright, then level side to side and front to back.
If your dishwasher has pre-attached mounting brackets and you
have a wooden under-counter, position brackets as far apart as
possible by sliding them within slots in direction of arrows. Do not
attach them to the countertop yet.
If your dishwasher has pre-attached mounting brackets and the
counter top is stone, use pliers to rotate bracket flanges to
remove brackets from the top. Grasp brackets with pliers at
perforation and bend until the rounded end breaks free. Discard
the ends. Slip brackets through side slots. Using pliers, bend
bracket flanges so the brackets will not slip through slots. Do not
attach them to the countertop yet.
