ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The dishwasher comes with an electrical cord for 110– 120 volts, 15 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, see “Connecting An Electrical Cable” below.

WARNING! Do not use an extension cord for this appliance.

The power-supply receptacle for the appliance should be installed in a cabinet or on a wall adjacent to the undercounter space in which the appliance is to be installed.

There should be an opening through the partition between

the opening for the dishwasher and the area under the sink that is large enough for the power cord to pass through. This opening should not be more than 1-1/2” (38 mm) in diameter and the edges should be smooth and rounded. If the partition is metal it should be covered with an edge protector provided for this purpose by the manufacturer.

When moving the appliance into or out of the cabinet, be careful not to damage the power-supply cord.

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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! This appliance must be properly grounded.

A) Grounding instructions for a grounded, cord-connected appliance

In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING! Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

B) Grounding instructions for a permanently connected appliance:

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.
