Step 14. Pre-test check list
Check to be sure power is off.
Open dishwasher door and remove all foam
and cardboard packaging.
Read the Use & Care manual to familiarize
yourself with the operation of the
dishwasher.
Add two quarts of water to the bottom of the
dishwasher to lubricate the pump seal.
Remove the protective film if present from
the control panel and trim.
Check to be sure that wiring is secure under
the dishwasher. Reattach connections if
necessary.
Pull lower rack about half way out. Check to
be sure it does not roll back into dishwasher
or further out. If it does, relevel dishwasher.
Turn on water supply.
Check for plumbing leaks. Tighten
connections if necessary.
Turn on the hot water faucet at the sink.
Verify that temperature is at least 120¡F.
Adjust the water heater to deliver water
between 120¡ and 150¡F if necessary.
Step 15. Dishwasher wet test check list
Turn on power supply.
Latch door.
Select normal cycle on push-button or
electronic models.
On dial models, turn control dial just enough
to start dishwasher. Be careful not to turn
the dial past the first water fill. On
electronic models, push start pad.
Check to be sure that water enters the
dishwasher. This could take up to 4 minutes.
If water does not enter the dishwasher,
check to be sure that water is turned on.
Check for leaks under the dishwasher. If a
leak is found, turn off power supply, tighten
connections and restore power.
Check for leaks around the door. A leak
around the door could be caused by
dishwasher door rubbing or hitting against
adjacent cabinetry. Reposition the
dishwasher if necessary.
The dishwasher will drain about 5 minutes
after the first fill. Check drain lines. If leaks
are found, turn off power, correct as
necessary and restore power.
Step 16. Replace access panel and toekick
Refer to Figure T. Place the toekick against the legs
of the dishwasher. Align the access panel to the
dishwasher and tighten the two access panel screws.
Align the toekick and make sure the bottom edge is
against the floor. Insert and tighten the two toekick
attachment screws, making sure the bottom edge of
the toekick stays in contact with the floor.
Let the dishwasher run through another fill and
drain cycle. Check again to be sure there are no
leaks.
At the end of the second drain, push the reset
pad on electronic models. On dial models,
unlatch the door and rotate the dial clockwise to
the ÒOFFÓ position.
