For models equipped with power cord: Do not modify the
plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.
Cabinet Preparation & Wire Routing
• The wiring may enter the opening from either side, rear
or the floor within the shaded area.
• Cut a 1-1/2" max. dia. hole to admit the electrical cable.
Cable direct connections may pass through the same
hole as the drain hose and hot water line, if convenient.
If cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered
with a bushing. NOTE: Power cords with plug must pass
through a separate hole.
Electrical Connection to Dishwasher
Electrical connection is on the right front of dishwasher.
• For cable direct connections the cable must be routed
as shown in Figure E. Cable must extend a minimum of
24" from the rear wall.
• For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding
type receptacle in the sink cabinet rear wall, 6" min. or
18" max. from the opening, 6" to 18" above the floor.

permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
be connected to the equipment grounding terminal or
lead on the appliance.
Grounding Instructions–Power Cord Models
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resis-
tance 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 installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING

equipment grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service
representative if you are in doubt that
the appliance is properly grounded.
