• Dishwashers need to be connected to a hot water supply
with enough water pressure to insure an adequate fill.
See Steps 4 and 7.
• Each home installation differs. You will need additional
parts listed above to complete your installation.
See Steps 4 and 7.
For your safety, please read and observe all safety
instructions. This guide will help you anticipate drain, water, and
electrical connections, and help you select the best location for the
dishwasher.
Installation Preparation
1.
Remove two (2) screws at front of the kickplate assembly using
a #2 Phillips screw driver.
Tilt and pull forward to remove. See Figure 1.
Do not push down on open door.

3. If you connect to a sink trap, local codes may require you to
install an air gap kit, (not included). The drain hose will be routed
from dishwasher to air gap inlet as shown in Figure 6. An air
gap kit is available from a plumbing supply store. NOTE: If the
6”
drain hose is installed through the floor, an air
gap is necessary.
4. If you connect to a disposer, the large end of drain hose will
fit. Figure 7(a). The knock out plug must be removed from
inside disposer inlet before making the final fit to drain
hose. See Figure 7(b).

6. If the cabinet wall is wood, sand edges of hole until smooth and
rounded. If cabinet wall is metal, cover all sharp edges with
electrical or duct tape to avoid cutting drain hose.
1. Review Figures 5, 6 and 7 to see the different ways to connect
dishwasher to drain system. Choose method that best suits
your need.
Drying Vent Hose (if equipped)
Care must be given during installation and removal of the dishwasher
to avoid disconnection of the vent hose that is attached to the top of
the dishwasher.

•
1. Determine where you will connect to hot water supply. Review
Figure 3 and note the location of water inlet valve.
3. Determine amount of tubing needed to connect hot water
supply to the unit’s water inlet valve. Copper tubing must have a
minimum 3/8” OD. High-pressure and high-temperature rated
plastic tubing with a minimum inner diameter of 1/4” may be
used. A shut-off valve installed outside dishwasher cabinet is
best. See Figure 4.

NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the outer door for installation.
However, you might find it more convenient to do so. You
can find directions for removing door in Step 10.
Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.

2. Note the locations of electrical supply and dishwasher’s
electrical junction box on right underside of unit behind kickplate
assembly. See Figure 3.
Do not use the furnished drain hose or a rubber garden hose
for the water supply line. Either of these hoses can burst.
Flooding may occur and cause property damage.

• Electrical, water, and drain connections are not the same for
all age, brands, or models of dishwashers. Check the
location and length of home utilities. See Step 4.
INSTALLER: Leave Installation Instructions with owner.
1. The dishwasher operates on a 120 volt, 60 Hz electrical supply.
Provide a separate circuit with a fuse or circuit breaker rated for
at least 15 amps (20 amps if connected with disposer) but not
more than 20 amps.
Property Damage
• Locate dishwasher where there is easy access to drain,
water, and electrical lines. The best location is on either side
of the kitchen sink for access to existing plumbing and ease
in loading dishes. See Step 4.
• Kinked water or drain hoses can cause problems. See Step
6.

4. Pull electrical cable through hole into installation area.
Electric Shock Hazard
Disconnect electrical power at the fuse box or

Property Damage
Do not solder within 6” of the water inlet valve. Damage to
the plastic parts in the valve may occur.
Be sure the dishwasher is placed where the water inlet valve
will be kept from freezing. If the valve freezes, it may rupture
and flooding may occur.
1. Flush water line before connecting it to water inlet valve to
prevent early clogging of filter screen. Place a bunched towel
over end of line to prevent splashing. Open water supply valve for
a few seconds and let water drain into a pan. Turn off water
supply at shut-off valve.

Securing the Dishwasher
To Remove and Replace Outer Door

The dishwasher must be secured to keep it from tilting when door is
opened. Choose one of the methods described below to secure unit.
Countertop Anchoring
1. Unlatch and open
door. Using a Phillips
head screw driver,
remove two (2) screws
from inner door. Save
screws to reassemble.
See Figure 16a.

Electric Shock Hazard
2. Replace Kickplate. See Figure 1
3. Adjust levelers (see Step 5) so mounting brackets touch
underside of countertop. IMPORTANT: Dishwasher must rest on
floor—do not hang from countertop. See Figure 14.
6. Open and close dishwasher door slowly. If door hits mounting
brackets lower the dishwasher in front and rear.
Plumbing material and drain hose must not come
in contact with wiring or electrical components.
3. Secure drain hose to sink drain, disposer, or separate trap with a
clamp. IMPORTANT: Be careful not to overtighten clamp or
you may damage end of hose. Do not connect hose to
horizontal pipe between sink drain and disposer.
4. Be sure unit does not rest on drain hose. It should be free of
electrical components and door springs. Do not cut corrugated
drain hose. Pull excess through cabinet and place under sink.
Make sure hose does not come in contact with any sharp edges.
See Figure 10.
Dishwasher is level and securely fastened.
Open and close door to make sure it does not hit
surrounding cabinet or countertop.
Joints are free of leaks.
Replacing Door
Electric Shock Hazard
Note: Open and close door to make sure it does not hit
surrounding cabinets or countertop.
Make sure electrical power has been disconnected at fuse box
or circuit breaker box.
The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system. The equipment-grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the appliance’s equipment grounding terminal or
lead. It is the consumer’s responsibility to contact a qualified
installer to make sure the electrical installation conforms with
the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the power supply until the
appliance is permanently grounded.
All wiring connections must be enclosed in the junction box.
This unit has copper lead wires.
Joining aluminum building wire to stranded copper wire
should be done by a qualified electrician using materials
recognized by UL and local codes.
Do not use an extension cord. Such use can result in fire,
electrical shock, or other personal injury.
4. Turn electrical supply on.
Operate the machine through at
least one fill and pump-out,
checking the following items:
2. Close and latch door
while holding both
sides.
At first fill, make sure water completely covers filter surface.
(Motor pump sound may be heard before water enters unit).
At pump-out, make sure all water is pumped out.
Check water connections again for leaks.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or
serious injury.
3. Place one hand on
each side of door and
pull down at top
approximately 1/4”.
Pull entire door
assembly toward
you to remove.
Figure 16b
Electric Shock Hazard
If all connections are correct, there are no leaks,
and unit runs properly, replace the kickplate
assembly before placing unit into operation.
Failure to follow this warning could result in
electric shock.
See Figure 16b.

2. Adjust door springs to balance weight of door. A correct spring
setting allows door to remain horizontal in opened position, yet
will rise to close with slight lift of finger.
3. If necessary, increase tension by moving springs to a hole
toward rear of unit or decrease by moving them toward front.
5. Screw mounting brackets firmly to countertop using screws
provided in literature packet.
2. Move unit back in place while routing drain hose through access
hole. Use caution to prevent damage to the dishwasher, floor
and cabinets. IMPORTANT: Make sure there are no sharp
bends or kinks that might restrict drain flow.
All packing materials and consumer literature have been
removed from unit.
1. Refer to Step 10, numbers 5 and 6, for replacing outer door.
5. Replace junction box cover. See Figure 13.
4. Tub needs to be even with the front of adjoining cabinets.
1. Pull out unit and check to see if drain hose is correctly attached
to the drain pump assembly. If drain hose is not attached to
drain pump, follow the instruction sheet (included with drain
hose) on how to correctly install the drain hose to the drain pump
assembly.

Note: If mounting your dishwasher to the
countertop or to the floor is not a desirable option,
you can order the side mount kit, 154806601/02, by
contacting your dealer or parts supplier. This allows
you to install the dishwasher by securing it to the
cabinets or partitions on either side of the unit. The
kit utilizes the front frame of the dishwasher to
secure the unit to the cabinet or partitions.
