PLACING THE DISHWASHER
Placing the Dishwasher
The profile strips on the sides of the
dishwasher allow the dishwasher to fit into
a cabinet opening with a width of 23-5/8”
(600 mm) to 24-1/8” (613 mm). Before
sliding the dishwasher into the cabinet
opening:
•
Straighten the hot water supply line and
the electrical cable (see Figure 11).
•
Level & Align (initial adjustments).
•
Guide the
drain hose
carefully (avoiding
kinks in hose) as the dishwasher is slid
into the cabinet opening.
•
Make final leveling adjustments (see
FINAL ADJUSTMENTS Section).
•
To maintain the dishwasher position and
alignment, first determine which type
of mounting your dishwasher needs:
Top Mount is used for all types of
countertops that
will not
be damaged
by drilling.
•
For a top mount, position the
brackets flat on each of the top
corners of the dishwasher as
shown in Figure 10A.
Side Mount is used when there is a
granite, marble or other hard natural
surface counter top that could be
damaged by drilling.
•
For a side mount, bend the
brackets, then position them as
shown in Figure 10B.
•
Drive Mounting Screws (see Figure 3)
through the holes in the brackets. See
Figure 10A or 10B.
•
Connect the drain hose, hot water
supply line and electrical connections
as described in the following sections.
