• Sink opening for garbage disposer must be 

dimensioned as shown (7-1/2") in Area “C.” This will 

provide clearance for disposer and plumbing in 

Area “C” when using either single or double bowl 

sink. Refer to Figure A below and Figure F1 on 

page 6.

PREPARE CABINET CUTOUT FOR SINK:

#282 French

To reduce the risk of shock, fire, or injury to 

persons, the installer must ensure that the 

dishwasher is completely enclosed at the 

time of installation.

WARNING

Note:

 A gap between the dishwasher tub front flange and 

the front of the base cabinet may result due to either 

the cabinet being less than 24" deep or the sink bowl 

not being installed to specifications. 

 

If the gap is more than 3/4", the sink bowl must be 

relocated to meet specified dimensions.
