See Locating the

Locate the 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 Making the

Connections, pages 9-11.

Electrical, water and drain connections are not the same for all age, brands or models of dishwasher.

Check the location and length of home utilities.

See Making the Connections, pages 9-11.

A 15-20 amp, grounded 120 volt AC only electrical supply is required.

See

Making the Connections, pages 9-11.

If the dishwasher drain hose will be connected to a food disposer for the first time, remove knock out plug covering disposer inlet.

See Making the

Connections, pages 9-11.

Kinked water and drain hoses can cause problems.

See Finishing the

Connections, page 16.

Dishwasher need to be connected to a hot water supply with enough water pressure to ensure an adequate fill.

See Making the Water Connection, page 10.

Each home installation differs.

You will need additional parts listed above to complete the installation.

See Materials Needed for Installation, page 5.

Flush water line

prior

to making the final connection to prevent clogging of the inlet valve filter screen.

See Finishing the Water Connection, page 16.

The dishwasher will look, sound and perform best when properly leveled.

See Leveling the Dishwasher, page 15.

Anchor the dishwasher to the countertop and adjacent cabinets.

See

Be sure water inlet is protected from freezing.

If valve freezes and ruptures, flooding may occur.

.

Determine the amount of tubing needed to connect the hot water supply to the unit's water inlet valve.

Copper tubing must have a minimum of 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 the dishwasher cabinet is recommended.

3.3 Attach the handle to the custom panel with the two 1 inch bolts. See figure above.

NOTE: The large square washer should NOT be used with a custom panel.

Step 3B: Mounting Custom Handles

If using any type of custom handle it would be best to contact a professional cabinetmaker.

All fasteners MUST be flush with the back of the panel to ensure a proper fit.

Step 4: Mounting the Custom Panel to the Dishwasher.

4.1 Align the four panel fasteners with the four holes of the keyhole slots on the inner door panel.

4.2 Once all four fasteners are seated, slide the custom panel down until the top of the custom panel is flush with the top of the control panel. Check overall fit and appearance.

4.3 Open door completely and verify alignment one last time.

Insert the two side screws into the existing holes, then drive them into the two 1/8" pilot holes of the custom panel.

Step

5: Adjust Spring Tension on Door.

5.1 If the spring tension on the door is too great then lower the spring on the bracket.

5.2 If the spring tension on the door is not enough then:

5.2.1

Remove spring from bracket.

5.2.2

Remove the bracket by removing the two screws.

5.2.3

Drill two 5/32" holes one inch above the two existing screw holes in the collar frame.

5.2.4

Secure bracket to collar frame using the two new holes.
