part of dishwasher tub. Pull cable through UL Listed/CSA
Approved strain relief in terminal box. Strain relief is not supplied
with the dishwasher. Owner must purchase a ⁷⁄₈" screw-in type
strain relief.
Select UL Listed/CSA Approved twist-on wire connectors (not
included) rated to connect your household wiring to 16-gauge
dishwasher wiring.
Form bare ground wire into a U-shaped hook. Wrap ground wire
hook clockwise around ground screw and under the washer.
Securely tighten ground screw.

approved wire connector. Gently tug on wires to be sure both are
secured.
