Location Specifications
■
Carefully check the location where the dishwasher is to be installed.
Put it in a location with convenient access, close to the kitchen sink
for easy water supply and drain connection.
■
The cabinet must enclose the dishwasher on top, back and sides.
■
If dishwasher is installed in a corner, there must be a minimum
clearance of 2” (5.1 cm) from the side wall so the door can open. See
diagram.
■
Floor must be solid and level. All cutout surfaces must be at right
angles. Surrounding cabinet must have sufficient material for
attachment of the anti-tip brackets (see installation instructions).
■
Plan the installation so that the appliance can be removed easily if
service is required. The electrical outlet/junction box, water supply
valve and drain connection must be installed to the right or left of
the unit and accessible when dishwasher is installed. Plan the utility
connections so that they can be disconnected without removing the
dishwasher from the cutout.
■
The power cable, the drain hose and water supply line must enter
through one or both of the shaded locations shown above right.
■
The access hole(s) in the cabinet for the power cord and water line
shall be no bigger than 1-1/2˝ (3.8 cm) in diameter. The access hole
for the drain hose shall be no bigger than 2˝ (5.0 cm) in diameter. The
access holes for all three must be round and smooth. If the partition
is metal, it needs to be covered with an edge protector. Call Dacor for
the part number of an approved edge protector.
* If the height of the existing cutout is too low:
■
Check to see if the cabinet face can be trimmed at the top. In many
cases, when a non-standard size dishwasher has been installed
previously, there is enough room inside the cabinet once the cabinet
face is modified.
■
The dishwasher can be shortened 1/4” (6.0 mm) by not installing the
plastic feet provided with the unit. Extra care must be taken if the feet
are not installed. Dacor is not responsible for floor damage during
installation.
■
The dishwasher can be shortened 1/4” (6.0 mm) by removing the trim
pieces that surround the wash compartment opening.
nOTE:
Doing
so will create a gap of 1/4” (6.0 mm) on the right and left side of the
door.
