Place Dishwasher in Cabinet
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install or uninstall
appliance.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
30. Stand dishwasher upright
Using 2 or more people, stand the dishwasher up.
NOTE:
Do not install kick plate until instructed to do so.
IMPORTANT:
If wheels were removed, cover the floor when
moving the dishwasher. Slowly move dishwasher completely
into cabinet opening. Do not kink or pinch water line, drain
hose, power cord, or direct wire between dishwasher and
cabinet. Remove cardboard from under dishwasher.
It is all right if dishwasher fits tightly into cabinet opening. Do
not remove insulation blanket—the blanket reduces the
sound level.
NOTE:
Route water supply, drain hose, and power cord out
the rear of the dishwasher.
31. Move dishwasher close to cabinet opening
Route the utilities through the holes in the cabinet and pull
the slack out at the same time as the dishwasher is pushed
into the cabinet.
32. Route power cord
.
If using a power cord, make sure to route end through hole in
cutout before sliding dishwasher into cabinet opening.
33. Secure installation blanket
NOTE:
Make sure insulation blanket is secured at both left
and right rear corners before pushing into cabinet opening to
keep the blanket from bunching up in a tight-fitting cabinet.
34. Move dishwasher all but 6" (152 mm) into
cabinet opening
NOTE:
Leave unit about 6" (152 mm) out from cabinet in
order to install anchor brackets and adjust door tension if
needed.
35. Pull slack from utilities
NOTE:
Pull slack out of utilities at the same time the
dishwasher is pushed into the cabinet opening to avoid any
kinks.
