STEP 1A ADJUST DOOR SPRINGS
(IF NECESSARY)
To adjust the door springs, you will need to remove the dishwasher
side panels.
To remove the side panels:
• Remove the screws from the top and back of each dishwasher
side panel, sixteen screws total. Open the door and remove the
four screws securing the panels to the inside door frame.
• Lay the dishwasher on its back. Remove the four screws
securing the toekick to the dishwasher, and remove the toekick.
• Remove the single screw just above and to the side of each front
leveling leg.
• Remove the side panels and set the dishwasher upright.
To adjust the door springs:
• Pull the spring adjustment pin out of the holes, insert in the next
highest or lowest hole and test again.
• Adjust both door springs to the same tension.
• Continue moving the spring pin until door is balanced.
• Replace the dishwasher side panels and proceed to Step 2.

STEP 1 CHECK DOOR BALANCE
• To check the door balance, hold the top of the dishwasher firmly.
• Open the door slowly. If the door drops when released,
you will need to increase spring tension. If the door closes
when released, you will need to decrease tension.
• If adjustments are needed, see Step 1A. If no adjustments are
needed, skip to Step 2.
