LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Dishwasher must be fully enclosed (top, sides, back, and floor)
upon installation. A side panel kit is available from your dealer for
installing your dishwasher at the end of your cabinetry.
An optional moisture barrier accessory is also available for
installing underneath a wooden countertop.
Check location where dishwasher will be installed. The location
must provide:
■
Convenient access for loading and unloading dishes. Corner
locations require a 2" (5.1 cm) minimum clearance between
the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet.
■
Easy access to water, electricity, and drain:
■
Grounded electrical supply is required.
■
This dishwasher has a water heating feature and also
requires a connection to a hot water supply line.
■
Make sure pipes, wires and drain hose are within the
shaded area shown in the “Product and Cabinet Opening
Dimensions” section.
■
Do not run drain lines, water lines, or electrical wiring where
they can interfere with or contact dishwasher motor or legs.
■
Shelter dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher
against freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by the
warranty.
NOTE:
If dishwasher will be left unused for a period of time
or in a location where it may be subject to freezing, have it
winterized by authorized service personnel.
■
If installed in new construction, flush the water supply line of
debris before connecting it to the fill valve. If it is not flushed,
debris from the water supply could plug the fill valve screen.
■
A square opening for proper operation and appearance.
■
The cabinet front to be perpendicular to floor.
■
Level floor.
Helpful Tip:
If floor at front of opening is not level with floor at
rear of opening, shims may be used to level dishwasher.
NOTE:
To avoid shifting during dishwasher operation, shims
must be securely attached to the floor.
■
The location where the dishwasher will be installed must
provide clearance between motor and flooring. Motor should
not touch the floor.
■
Do not install dishwasher over carpeted flooring.
