ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING! Before working on wiring for any electrical appliance, be sure the electrical power has been turned off at the breaker/fuse box.

WARNING! Disconnect electrical power supply and place a tag at the disconnect switch indicating that you are working on the circuit.

WARNING! Electrical and grounding connections must comply with the applicable portions of the national electrical code and/or other local electrical codes.

WARNING!

Do not use an extension cord for this appliance.

The dishwasher comes with an electrical cord for 110-120 volts, 15/20 amp supplied. This cord should be plugged into the 110-120 volt outlet under the sink.

If the cord is not long enough, or if a hard- wire installation is needed, follow instructions on page 8.

NOTE: Access holes should be 1-1/2” to 2” (38 mm to 50 mm) in diameter with no sharp edges.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This unit must be grounded to operate properly. It must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead of the appliance.

Damage to the dishwasher could occur if it is not properly grounded.

WARNING! Make sure the water supply line, drain line and branch circuit wiring do not touch any exposed terminals of dishwasher wiring.

PREPARING THE DISHWASHER FOR INSTALLATION

At this point the styrofoam, plastic wrap, and the wood pallet (base) should be removed from the dishwasher. Now is an excellent time to inspect for any shipping damage. Should you find any damage, you should report it to your dealer or builder immediately.

Be sure to remove the toe kick and toe kick insulation which are on top of the dishwasher.

SLIDES FOR LEGS

The unit comes with white plastic slides for the legs to protect the kitchen floor from being damaged when you slide the unit into place. The slides simply snap onto the bottom of the legs.

THE FILL STRIPS

All Asko Tall Tank dishwashers come with color-coded fill strips to finish out the installation.
