Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your dishwasher unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
To minimize the possibility of electric shock, disconnect this appliance form the power supply
before attempting any maintenance.
NOTE: Turning the dishwasher off does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply. We
recommend having a qualified technician service your appliance.
Cabinet Preparation & Wiring Routing
The wiring may enter the opening from
either side, rear or the floor within the
shaded area.
Cut a 1½” max diameter hole to admit
the electrical cable. Cable direct
connections may pass through the
same hole as the drain hose and hot
water line, if convenient. If cabinet wall
is metal, the hole edge must be
covered with a bushing.
NOTE: power cords with plug must pass
through a separate hole.
Electrical Connection To Dishwasher.
Electrical connection is on the right front of
dishwasher.
For cable direct connections the cable
must be routed as shown in figure.
Cable must extend a minimum of 24” from the rear wall.
For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding type receptacle in the sink cabinet rear
wall, 6” min. or 18” max. from the opening, 6” to 8” above the floor.
¾ Before You Begin
Locate and set aside the 2 Phillips head countertop mounting screws wrapped with yellow tape and
stuck to the top or side of the dishwasher.
¾ Check Door Balance And Remove Toekick
With dishwasher on wood skid, check the door balance by
opening and closing the door.
If door drips open when released, increase spring tension.
If door closes when released, decrease tension.
NOTE: Increase or decrease tension as shown. Adjust both
springs to the same tension setting to correct balance.
Then remove the toekick.
