Dishwasher installation
Place the door panel on a flat sur- face, good side face down, taking care not to scratch the surface.
Make certain that the bottom of the panel is closest to you.
Using a pencil, lightly draw a center- line from top to bottom.
Using the previous measurement, draw a horizontal line “X” inches above the bottom of the panel.
Important: Make certain the line drawn using measurement “X” is located at what will be the bottom of the panel when it is attached to the dishwasher.
The mounting bracket is marked in the middle A. Lay the bracket on the rear side of the door front so that the mark A in the middle of the bracket aligns with the vertical guide line, and the lower holes of the bracket are centrally positioned in the hori- zontal guide line (see illustration). Use strips of adhesive tape to hold the bracket in this position.
Mark and drill pilot holes for the screws using a 3/32" (2.5 mm) drill bit.
Attach the bracket to the panel using the 4 screws provided.
Double check the location of the bracket before mounting the panel to the dishwasher.
Attaching the panel.
Pull the dishwasher out from under the countertop about 4" (10 cm).
If the dishwasher is installed at the end of the kitchen cabinets: Pull the machine out as far as is necessary to reach the 4 locking screws lo- cated on the edge of the door.
Attach the panel to the dishwasher by aligning the bracket tabs with the slots on the door.
Straighten the panel and lock it into place by tightening the 2 locking screws on each edge of the door.
Use the provided caps to plug the locking screw access holes.
Push the dishwasher back under the countertop, and proceed to Step 6, “Adjusting the door springs”.
