18 INSTALLATION
NOTE
• Open the door and grab the body frame and the
top front opening
of the tub to move or lift the
b
dishwasher.
1
Align the dishwasher with the opening. Make
sure the water supply line and power cord
extend smoothly without kinks or bends.
2
Smooth out or pad the edges of the hole
drilled for the water supply to avoid damaging
the drain hose.
3
Make sure the drain hose is straight before
feeding the end of it through the hole for the
water supply. As you slide the dishwasher into
the opening, slowly pull on the drain hose from
inside the cabinet to take up some slack. Be
careful not to kink, pinch, crush or stress the
drain hose during installation to avoid leaking
and water damage.
4
Gradually slide the dishwasher into the
opening, making sure that the water supply
line and power cord are passing freely through
the opening and do not get caught under the
dishwasher.
• As you slide the dishwasher into the opening,
stop periodically (or have an assistant help)
to take up the slack by pulling the drain hose
farther into the cabinet.
CAUTION
• To avoid malfunctions or leakage, it is
important that the drain hose not get kinked,
pinched, stressed or crushed behind or under
the dishwasher or inside the neighboring
cabinet.
• Damage resulting from improper installation
is not covered under the warranty.
