Built-up floors: If the kitchen floor is higher than the cabinet
opening's floor - for example, the kitchen floor tile does not
extend into the cabinet opening - add shims as needed in the area
shown to bring the dishwasher up to 34" (86.4 cm) below the
countertop.
NOTE: Shims must be securely attached to floor to avoid
movement when the dishwasher is in use.
Choose Attachment Option
Using 2 or more people, stand the dishwasher up.
IMPORTANT: The dishwasher must be secured to the cabinet.
There are two brackets found in the parts bag. Attach the
brackets using Option A if the countertop is wood, laminate or
another similar surface. If your countertop is marble, granite or
another hard surface, install using Option B.
Option A, Countertop Attachment
Remove the brackets from the package and insert into the open
slots on the left and right-hand top of the dishwasher collar as
shown.
Using a pair of pliers, bend the tab down to secure the bracket in
place. Repeat this step for the other side.
NOTE: Do not attach the dishwasher. This will be done later.
Option B, Side Attachment
For marble, granite, or other hard surface countertops
NOTE: Remove the brackets from the parts package.
Break off the end of the bracket along the scored line.
With another person holding the rear of the dishwasher to keep it
from tipping, open dishwasher door and place towel over pump
assembly and spray arm of dishwasher. This will keep screws
from falling into pump area when you are securing dishwasher to
cabinet.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
dishwasher.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
