Select a location as close to the sink as possible for easy access to water supply and drain lines.

For proper dishwasher operation and appearance, ensure that the enclosure is square and has the dimensions shown in Figure 1.

If the dishwasher is to be installed in a corner, make sure that there is adequate clearance to open the door. See Figure 2.

WARNING

Avoid Electrical Shock/Fire Hazard

Do not allow the electrical and water supply lines to touch. Separate channels are provided under the dishwasher (see page 10).

If the enclosure requires openings for the electrical supply cable, hot water supply line, and dishwasher drain hose, place them within the dimensions shown by the shaded area of Figure 3 to avoid interference with the dishwasher frame or other components. Make the openings for the electrical supply cable and hot water supply line 1” (25.4mm) diameter. Make the opening for the dishwasher drain hose 1-1/4” (32mm) diameter. If the openings are made through wood, sand them smooth. If the openings are made through metal, make them large enough to accommodate grommets or other protective sheaths with inside diameters of 1” (25.4mm) for the electrical supply cable and the hot water supply line, and 1-1/4” (32mm) for the dishwasher drain hose.
