PREPARE ELECTRICAL WIRING

WARNING

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY:

 

 

Remove house fuse or open circuit breaker

 

before beginning installation. Do not use

 

an extension cord or adapter plug with this

 

appliance.

 

 

Electrical Requirements

This appliance must be supplied with 120V, 60Hz., and connected to an individual properly grounded branch circuit protected by a 15 or 20 ampere circuit breaker or time delay fuse.

Wiring must be 2 wire with ground and rated for 75°C (176°F).

If the electrical supply does not meet the above requirements, call a licensed electrician before proceeding.

Grounding Instructions–Cable Direct

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, 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 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 installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING The improper connection of the 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.

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 and 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. diameter 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.
