Dishwasher installation

The “i” model dishwasher is specially designed for installation under a con- tinuous countertop.

A panel can be custom made for instal- lation on the front of the dishwasher, as- suring a perfect match with the kitchen cabinetry.

If a standard non-cabinet matching dishwasher installation is desired, the “i” model dishwasher can be converted into a “U” model through the addition of a GDU 60/65 decor kit. The decor kit comes supplied with separate installa- tion instructions.

To ensure stability, these dish- washers should only be installed under a continuous countertop which is securely fastened to the cabinet base units.

Dimensions:

 

1) with

35"

(890 mm) machine height

2) with 33 1/8" (840 mm) machine height

Range of adjustment is approximately 2" (5 cm).

1.Installing the steam deflector, (if applicable).

A stainless steel plate is supplied to protect the underside of the countertop against steam rising from the dish- washer when the door is opened. If the countertop is made of Corian®, gra- nite, marble or other solid, waterproof material, the steam deflector should not be used.

Squeeze a bead of sealant from the supplied tube into the angle formed by the curved edge b of the cover- plate.

Align the plate c with the lower front edge of the countertop (see illustra- tion) and use the supplied tacks to nail it in place.

On countertops with wood or lami- nate edging, the tacks should be nailed through the rear holes of the plate.
