Dishwasher installation
For openings 23 5/8" (60 cm) wide:
Open the dishwasher door and remove the caps covering the mount- ing holes on the outer edge of the wash chamber.
Fasten the dishwasher to the ad- jacent cabinets using the supplied screws and bushings. Make sure a bushing is placed over the screw be- fore inserting it into its mounting hole.
Tighten the screws and replace the caps.
The side mounting holes should only be used for securing the dishwasher if the opening is
23 5/8" (60 cm) wide. Use of this method on larger openings will damage the machine and cause leaks.
8. Installing the toekick.
For kitchens utilizing one continuous toekick
To prevent damaging the front panel, and before installing the toe- kick, measurements must be taken to ensure that the toekick will not in- terfere with the complete opening of the dishwasher door.
The panel overhang (P), and toekick depth of recess (R), determine the maxi- mum dishwasher toekick height (H).
If the panel contacts the toekick while the dishwasher door is being opened, the dishwasher toekick must be cut shorter or recessed deeper.
If (H) is equal to or less than the toekick height of the adjoining cabinetry, no in- terference will exist, provided that (R) is at least 3/4".
Note: If a decorative or flush mount toe- kick is desired, and (R) is less than 3/4", other modifications, such as beve- ling the top rear edge of the toekick, may be adequate.
