FASTENING THE DISHWASHER TO THE CABINET
It’s necessary to fasten the dishwasher to the cabinet so it won’t tilt when the door is opened or if something
heavy is placed on the door. Use only the screws provided with the machine. The dishwasher can be
fastened to the cabinet on the top, at the sides, or both, depending on the type of installation.
STANDARD CABINET INSTALLATIONS
For a standard cabinet and ADA installations, you should mount the
dishwasher at the top. To do this, follow the instructions below:
1. Use the four 3/4” screws provided with the unit to mount the
dishwasher to underneath the cabinet top.
2. Insert the screws through the four holes on the top installation lip
and tighten securely.
3. When the machine is properly attached, check that the feet are
tight against the floor and the machine is level.
SOLID SURFACE COUNTER TOP INSTALLATIONS
If you have a solid surface countertop that will not accommodate screws, mount the dishwasher to the
cabinet using the side mount holes. To do this, follow the instructions below:
1. Remove the white plugs from the side holes and use a “center
punch” to assist in starting the screws.
2. Insert the two mounting screws with sleeves provided with the
unit into the side holes and tighten the screw securely.
3. Cover the screw heads with the plastic plugs provided with the
machine.
4. When the machine is properly attached, check that the feet are
tight against the floor and that the machine is level.
EDW294E WITH A TOP FILL STRIP INSTALLATIONS
Model EDW294E installations with a top fill strip should be mounted to the cabinet on the sides for all
installations, except ADA height installations, which should be mounted at the top.
NOTE: Do not fasten the dishwasher to the cabinet until
after you have installed the custom door panel.
To do this installation, follow the steps below:
1. Install the fill strip as explained on page 6.
2. Remove the white plugs from the side holes and use a
“center punch” to assist in starting the screws.
3. Insert the two mounting screws with sleeves provided
with the unit into the side holes and tighten securely.
NOTE: Failure to use the sleeves could cause the
unit to warp, which could cause it to leak.
4. Cover the screw heads with the plastic plugs provided
with the machine.
5. When the machine is properly attached, check that the feet are tight against the floor and that the
machine is level.
This method is for standard
installations only.
Use this method only for solid surface
counter tops, such as marble.
INSTALLING THE TOE KICK
You must attach the toe kick brackets to the desired depth. Push the spring tab on the sides of the base pan
towards the outside of the machine and carefully pull or push the T shaped toe kick bracket to the desired depth.
Make sure the toe kick bracket is securely inside the guides on the base pan.
Once you have adjusted the toe kick bracket to the desired depth, you can install
the toe kick, as follows:
1. Position the toe kick at the edge of the access panel, slide the toe kick up behind
the access panel then let it slide to the floor.
2. Screw the toe kick to the toe kick brackets.
This method is for EDW294E
installations with a top fill strip.
