STEP 16 PRE-TEST CHECK LIST

Review this list after installing your dishwasher to avoid charges for a service call that is not covered by your warranty.

Check to be sure power is OFF.

Open door and remove all foam and paper packaging.

Locate the Owner’s Manual in the literature package.

Read the Owner’s Manual for operating instructions.

Check door opening and closing. If door does not open and close freely or tends to fall, check spring cable routing. See Step 1.

Check to be sure that wiring is secure under the dishwasher, not pinched or in contact with door springs or other components. See Step 10.

Check door alignment with tub. If door hits tub, level dishwasher. See Step 11.

Pull lower rack out, about half way. Check to be sure it does not roll back or forward on the door. If the rack moves, adjust leveling legs. See Step 11.

Check door alignment with cabinet. If door hits cabinet, reposition dishwasher. See Step 12.

Check that door spring does not contact water line, fill hose, wiring or other components. See Step 13.

Verify water supply and drain lines are not kinked or in contact with other components. Contact with motor or dishwasher frame could cause noise.

Turn on the sink hot water faucet and verify water

temperature. Incoming water temperature must be between 120°F and 150°F. 120°F min. temperature

is required for best wash performance. See “Pre- pare Hot Water Line,” page 4.

Add 2 quarts of water to the bottom of the dishwasher to lubricate the pump seal.
