Electrical ground is required. See Electrical requirements.
DO NOT install dishwasher over carpeted flooring.
Proper electrical, drain and water supply lines must be available or must be installed as specified within shaded area to prevent interference with dishwasher frame or other components. See Electrical, Water and Drain requirements. Plumbing and wiring should not cross in front of motor or dishwasher frame.
Product Damage
Protect dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher against freezing.
Failure to do so could
cause inlet valve, water lines leading to dishwasher, water lines in dishwasher and drain to rupture.
Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty.
For installations where the dishwasher will be left unused and subjected to freezing temperatures, it must be prepared as outlined in your Use and Care Guide.
