Toe Kick
The toe kick panel is a safety and decorative panel
covering the machine area of the dishwasher. The
panel provides a safety barrier, closing the front of
the dishwasher machine compartment. To remove
the panel, remove two 1/4 in. hex head screws and
pull the panel away from the dishwasher.
Junction Box and House Wiring Connection
The junction box is located behind the toe kick on
the right hand side of the dishwasher. The junction
box is where the 120 VAC house voltage connects to
the dishwasher. The dishwasher may be hardwired
or an optional cord may be installed (available
separately, Part #: WX09X70910), which plugs into
a wall outlet and connects to the harness plug into
the control (see the Installation Guide provided with
the appliance). The cover is held in place with a 1/4
in. hex head screw on the left side, and tab on the
right side. To remove the cover, remove the screw
and pull out and to left to release the tab. It is helpful
to squeeze the top and bottom of the box when
removing and installing.
