Leveling and
securing the
dishwasher
To ensure stability, the dishwasher must be secured to the counter
once it has been leveled.
After leveling, securely screw the dishwasher to the continuous
countertop.
With the door open, turn the screws into the countertop through the
holes in the front trim on the left and right hand sides of the
dishwasher.
For countertops made of stainless steel or natural stone, the
dishwasher must be secured to the adjacent cabinetry on the left and
right hand sides using two screws per side.
Special screws (4 x 27 / Torx T20) are included in the accessories
provided.
For this type of installation, holes must be drilled in the side wall in
front of the door seal.
The gaps between undercounter dishwashers and adjacent cabinetry
or appliances may not be filled with silicone sealant, since this could
impair the ventilation of the circulation pump.
Depending on the specific undercounter installation situation, the
stainless steel cover plate supplied with the dishwasher can be used
to protect the underside of the countertop against damage caused by
steam.
