Move dishwasher into cabinet opening

1. Grasp the sides of the dishwasher

at the edges of the door panel.

2.Tilt dishwasher backwards on wheels and move dishwasher close to cabinet opening. Do not push on

the front of the panel or on the console—they may dent.

3.If dishwasher has a power supply

cord, insert power supply cord into hole cut into cabinet.

If using direct wire, check that it is on the right front side of opening.

4.Check that water line is on the left side of opening and drain hose is near the center of the hole in the cabinet.

5.Slowly move dishwasher completely into cabinet opening. Do not kink or pinch copper tubing, drain hose, power supply cord or direct wire between dishwasher and cabinet.

Helpful Tip: Once the dishwasher is in position, you may have to support the front of the dishwasher by raising, lowering or shimming front feet.

6.Remove cardboard from under dishwasher.

NOTE: It is all right if dishwasher fits tightly into cabinet opening. Do not remove insulation blanket —the blanket reduces the sound level.

Level the dishwasher

1.Align front of dishwasher door panel with cabinet doors. You may need to adjust alignment to be even with your cabinets.

Helpful Tip: Prop up one side of frame to hold dishwasher up off floor when adjusting front legs.

2.Check that leveling legs are firmly against the floor.

3.Close and latch the door, and place level against the front panel. Check that dishwasher is plumb. If needed, adjust leveling leg or add shims under rear wheel until dishwasher is plumb.

4.Repeat for other side of dishwasher.

NOTE: Shims must be securely attached to floor to prevent their movement when the dishwasher is operated.

5.Place level against top front

opening of tub. Check that dishwasher is level from side to side. If dishwasher is not level, adjust front legs up or down until dishwasher is level.
