in improper installation and damage to
property.

the circuit breaker or removing the fuse.
•
Only connect the dishwasher to the power supply when
all installation and plumbing work is complete.
•
Never connect the ground wire to gas lines, or hot water
pipes, plumbing lines.

subjected to freezing temperatures (e.g., vacation home,
cabin, etc.), you must drain all water from the
dishwasher's interior. Water system breakdowns that
occur due to freezing water are not covered under
warranty.

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLING MOUNTING
BRACKETS
The mounting brackets in the plastic bag should be used
when the dishwasher is installed in the cabinetry. Use of
any parts other than mounting brackets may result in
damage to property or bodily injury.

There shall be an opening through the
partition between the compartments that is
large enough for the attachment plug to
pass through. The longest dimension of the
opening shall not be more than 38.1 mm
(1.5")
NOTE
If the partition is in wood, the edges of the
cabinetry should be smooth and rounded,
or, if the partition is in metal, the edges of
the cabinetry should be covered with an
edge protector; when the appliance is
installed or removed, take care to reduce
the likelihood of damage to the power
supply cord.
1) Place the two mounting brackets into the top corners of
the dishwasher.
2) If necessary (depending on countertop board material),
