Manual backgroundNut

Ferrule

Copper tubing only: Slide nut, then ferrule, about 1" (2.5 cm) onto copper tubing.

NOTE: To avoid vibration during operation, route the water supply line so that it does not touch the dishwasher base, frame or motor.

6.Add 90° elbow fitting to the water supply line.

Connect the ³⁄₈" compression fitting to the water supply line prior to installing the unit into the cabinet opening. Attach such that the ³⁄₄" connection is facing upward.

Copper tubing only: Put the tubing into the 90° elbow fitting as far as it will go (the copper tubing bends and kinks easily). Slide the nut and ferrule forward and start the nut onto the elbow threads. Flexible braided connection: Secure nut to elbow using ⁵⁄₈" open ended wrench or adjustable wrench.

NOTE: Do not use Teflon®† tape with compression fittings.

7.Remove terminal box cover.

If you are direct wiring: Install a UL Listed/CSA Approved clamp connector to the terminal box. If using conduit, use a UL Listed/CSA Approved strain relief.

If you are installing a power supply cord kit, do so now, following kit instructions. The power supply cord kit must be UL Listed and marked for use with dishwashers (that is, Power Supply Cord Kit Part Number 4317824).

9.Turn both front leveler legs to the same height.

If the minimum cutout height is less than

 

34" (86.4 cm), the rear wheels can be

 

removed for additional clearance. This will

 

allow the dishwasher to fit into a 33⁷⁄₈"

 

(86 cm) high cutout, but the dishwasher

 

will be more difficult to move into position.

If the wheels are removed, cover the floor

 

when moving the dishwasher.

 

10.Using 2 or more people, stand the dishwasher up.

NOTE: Do not attach the dishwasher. This will be done later.
