Step 6: Preparing the Dishwasher
Ensure that the circuit breaker and water supply valve are turned off before
proceeding with the following Steps.
Before you move or lay down the dishwasher for installation, make sure to adjust
the height of the legs so the legs are as short as possible. This prevents the legs from
breaking. Level the dishwasher by adjusting the height of the legs after you have the
dishwasher in place.
1. Make sure there are no kinks and that the hose is not bent at any extreme angles
that could constrict the flow of water.
2. Remove the junction box cover located at the bottom front right of the dishwasher
using a screwdriver, and then Install the strain relief (Figure 4 - C). Make sure to keep
the junction box cover you removed. It is used in Step 11, Wiring Connections.
3. If the countertop is made of wood or a material that is not damaged by drilling,
attach the two Installation brackets that were supplied with the dishwasher using the
supplied screws (Figure 4 - A). They will be used in Step 9, Securing the Dishwasher.
Step 5: Unpacking and Inspecting the Dishwasher Continued

The mounting plate should be secured to the front of the base, the threads inside
the connection should be smooth and shiny, and the area should be clean and
free of any debris.
2. Check the plastic base and sensor cases to ensure these assemblies are not
cracked and that all connections are secure.
3. Check the drain hose for any holes or deformities that could allow a water leak
during draining.
Electrical Inspection
1. Confirm the junction box cover is secured to the junction box on the front right side
of the base of the dishwasher.
2. Confirm the electrical box was not damaged during shipping and that it is secured
to the base of the dishwasher.
