cabinet opening.) Example: Kitchen floor tile does not extend into cabinet opening. Add shims as needed in the area shown to bring the dishwasher up to 34” (86.4 cm) below the countertop.

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

Move Dishwasher into Cabinet Opening

1 Stand dishwasher upright

IMPORTANT: Double check correct placement of utilities. Grasp the sides of the dishwasher at the edges of the door panel. Tilt dishwasher backwards on wheels and move dishwasher close to cabinet opening.

NOTE: Do not push on the front of the panel or on the console–they may dent.

Helpful Tip: Temporarily tape utilities to the floor in the locations shown to prevent them from moving when dishwasher is moved into the cabinet opening.

3 Check water and drain hose position

Using two or more people, stand dishwasher upright.

NOTE: Do not install kickplate until instructed.

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

4 Open and close door

With another person holding the dishwasher to prevent

it from tipping, open and close the door a few times. If
the door closes or falls open under its own weight, the
door tension will need to be adjusted.	13
