WARNING
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY: Remove house
fuse or open circuit breaker before
beginning installation. Do not use an
extension cord or adapter plug with this
appliance.

appareil, ne pas utiliser une rallonge ou
un adaptateur de prise.
Electrical Requirements
• This appliance must be supplied with 120V, 60 Hz., and
connected to an individual properly grounded branch
circuit, protected by a 15 or 20 ampere circuit breaker
or time delay fuse.
• Wiring must be 2-wire with ground and rated for
75°C (176°F).
• If the electrical supply does not meet the above
requirements, call a licensed electrician before
proceeding.
Grounding Instructions—Cable Direct
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
be connected to the equipment grounding terminal or
lead on the appliance.
Grounding Instructions—Power Cord Models
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING
The improper connection of the equipment
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service representative if you
are in doubt that the appliance is properly
grounded.
ATTENTION
Le mauvais branchement du conducteur
de mise à la terre peut causer des risques
de choc électrique. En cas de doute sur
la mise à la terre de l’appareil, consulter
un électricien agrée ou un technicien de
réparation.
For models equipped with power cord: Do not modify
the plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
technician.
Cabinet Preparation and Wire Routing
• The wiring may enter the opening from either side,
rear or the floor within the shaded area.
• Cut a 1-1/2" max. dia. 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 E. 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 18"
above the floor.
