HOW TO CHANGE COLOR PANELS

If you are redecorating, you can change your dishwasher’s front panels to
match or blend with your new colors by flipping them over. Each side 

each panel is a different color. You may also paint a panel with a color
of your own choice.

How to Change the Door Panel:

1. Take out trim screws on either side of the

dishwasher door. Remove the side trim.

2. Slide the door panel out.

(Careful—edges may be sharp.)

3. Turn the door panel around and put the color you

want in front.

4. Replace the door panel, side trim and screws.

NOTE: Do not operate
dishwasher while changing
panels or when lower access
panel is removed.

How to Change the Lower Panel:

1. Remove the bottom panel attachment screws.

Bottom Panel Attachment Screws

2. On models without 

top 

mounting screws, remove

the entire access assembly by 

 it up and over

the retaining tabs.

3. On models with top mounting screws, remove

the screws.

4. Take out the top trim screws and remove the

top trim.

5. Slide the color panel(s) up and out and put the

color you want in front.

6. Replace the top trim and screws.

7. Replace the entire access assembly by reversing

the steps.

Adding 1/4” Wood Inserts

Color insert panels for both the door and the 
panel can be replaced by 

 thick wood inserts to

match your kitchen cabinets. Get them from your
nearest cabinet or lumber dealer.
