Installation requirements
To prevent a risk of fire, electric shock, or
personal injury, all wiring and grounding
must be done by a qualified technician.
Power supply
• To prevent the risk of fire, electric
shock, or personal injury, all wiring
and grounding must be performed in
accordance with the National Electrical
Code ANSI/FNPA, No. 70 Latest Revision
and local codes and ordinances. It is the
personal responsibility of the appliance
owner to provide adequate electrical
service for this appliance.
• When preparing for installation, make
sure that your power supply provides
an individual 120 Volt, 60 Hz branch
circuit serving only your dishwasher
with a 15 AMP fuse or circuit breaker.
• Your dishwasher must be grounded. If
your dishwasher malfunctions or breaks
down, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for the electric current.
WARNING
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Use only the power plug that comes
with the dishwasher.
Grounding
For permanent grounding, the dishwasher
must be properly grounded to a grounded
metal or permanent wiring system. The
grounding conductor must be run with
the circuit conductors and then connected
to the grounding terminal or lead on the
dishwasher.
WARNING
• Do not connect the ground wire to
plastic plumbing, gas lines, or hot water
pipes. Improperly connected grounding
conductors may cause electric shock.
• Do not modify the power plug of the
dishwasher. If the power plug does
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
