Installation Instructions
Installation Preparation
WARNING
• Before working on wiring for any electrical
appliance, be sure the power has been
turned off at the breaker/fuse box. Place a
tag at the disconnect switch indicating that
you are working on the circuit.
• Moving this appliance requires two people.
Do not attempt to install or lift it alone.
• To prevent personal injury, wear hand
protection when moving this appliance.
• Do not allow any material, including the
hoses or electrical wiring to be directly behind
the dishwasher while pushing it into the
cutout opening. Carefully pull the slack out of
both hoses and the wiring from outside the
cutout during push back to prevent pinching.
An electric shock hazard or water damage
may result from pinched wires or hoses.
Damage due to improper installation is not
covered under warranty.
Adjust the Door Springs
Before installation, open the door to check the door
springs. If it tends to fall open or pull shut quickly
on its own, adjust the springs.
The door springs are on the sides of the
dishwasher. If adjustment is necessary, try making
small adjustments on only one side first.
1. Be sure the door is closed.
2. Grab the front end of the spring and pull it
up and forward to release it from the forward
mount.
3. To make small tension adjustments to the
spring, hold the back end of the spring with
one hand and turn the front part one or more
times. Turn it clockwise to increase spring
tension, counterclockwise to reduce tension.
4. To make larger tension adjustments to the door
springs, remove the back of the springs from the
dishwasher by turning them outwards.
Move them one hole farther back or forward, then
make small adjustments as outlined in step 3 as
necessary.
5. To reinstall the back end of the spring, hold it at
a right angle to the side of the dishwasher and
push the end into the hole, then turn the spring
in, toward the front of the dishwasher.
6. Reattach the front end of the spring by pulling it
up and forward to fasten it in the mount.
7. Open the door and check the spring tension
again. If necessary, make further adjustments.
