Cabinet Preparation & Wire Routing
• The wiring may enter the opening from either side,
rear or the fl oor within the shaded area.
• Cut a 1-1/2" max. dia. hole to admit the electrical cable.
The hole must be free of sharp edges. If the cabinet
wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a
bushing.
• Cable direct connections may pass through the same
hole as the drain hose and hot water line, if convenient.
If cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered
with a bushing. NOTE: Power cords with plug must
pass through a separate hole.
Electrical Connection to Dishwasher

• For cable direct connections the cable must be routed
as shown in Figure E. Cable must extend a minimum of
24" from the rear wall.
• For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding
type receptacle. The power-supply receptacle for the
appliance shall be installed in a cabinet or on a wall
adjacent to the undercounter space in which the

permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
be connected to the equipment grounding terminal or
lead on the appliance.
Grounding Instructions – Power Cord Models
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a mal-
function or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance
for electric current. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is installed
and grounded in accordance with local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING
The improper connection of the
equipment grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check
