WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground dishwasher.
Connect ground wire to green ground connector in
terminal box.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
15
Place wires inside terminal box. Replace the cover by inserting
the hooks of the terminal cover into the slots in the floor of the
terminal box and sliding the cover tight against the back wall
where wires come in. Make sure wires are tucked inside the box
and not pinched by the cover.
Then, put the terminal box back on the crossbar with the tab in
place. Use a ¹⁄₄" nut driver and the previously removed screw to
secure the terminal box to the crossbar.
NOTE: Do not plug into outlet until instructed to do so.
Once the terminal box has been remounted on the dishwasher,
there should be some excess length or slack in the green, black,
and white wires coming from the dishwasher to the terminal
box. Wrap these wires over the nearby components or clip them
back into the nearby clips that they were routed through prior to
your removing the box, to help keep them off the floor.
Determine Cabinet Opening
Measure height of cabinet opening from underside of
countertop to floor where dishwasher will be installed (you will
need to measure the lowest point on the underside of the
countertop and the highest point on the floor). Refer to
“Dishwasher Height Adjustment Chart” for wheel position and
for wheel position and height of front legs needed for your
cabinet opening height.
NOTE: If the minimum cabinet opening height is less than 34"
(86.4 cm), the rear wheels can be removed for additional
clearance. This will allow the dishwasher and perforated section
of the insulation blanket to fit into a 33¹⁄₂" (85.1 cm) high
cabinet opening, but the dishwasher will be more difficult to
move. Measurements are approximate. Wheels and legs are
preset at the factory for 34¹⁄₂" (87.6 cm).
Cut insulation blanket along perforation for cabinet opening
height of 33½" (85.1 cm). For other cabinet opening heights, do
not cut.
16
Turn both leveler legs to the same height. Put wheels in the
required position determined from “Dishwasher Height
Adjustment Chart.”
Built-up floors: If the kitchen floor is higher than the cabinet
opening's floor - for example, the kitchen floor tile does not
extend into the 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 avoid
movement when the dishwasher is in use.
Install Door Handle
(on some models)
IMPORTANT: Do not scratch the front panel during this
procedure.
Remove the door handle and hardware bag containing the
setscrews and hex key from the cardboard box. Setscrews are
already installed in the handle. Place handle on mounting studs
with the setscrews facing down. Push the door handle tightly
against the door. Insert the short end of the hex key into the
setscrews. Tighten the setscrews ¹⁄₄ turn past snug.
Retain hex key with Installation Instructions.
Using 2 or more people, stand the dishwasher up.
NOTE: Do not install kick plate until instructed to do so.
Custom Panel Installation
(Custom Panel models only)
For custom panel installation, refer to the Custom Panel
Installation Instruction Sheet (Part Number W10750117A).

“Choose Attachment Option” section.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
dishwasher.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
17
Choose Attachment Option
IMPORTANT: The dishwasher must be secured to the cabinet as
one of the final steps. Prepare the dishwasher for this by
attaching the two brackets found in the parts bag to the
dishwasher.
For countertops that are wood, laminate, or another similar
surface, use Option A.
For countertops that are marble, granite, or another hard
surface, use Option B.
Option A, Countertop Attachment
Remove the brackets from the package and insert into the open
slots on the left-hand and right-hand top of the dishwasher
collar, as shown.
Using a pair of pliers, bend the tab down to secure the bracket
in place. Repeat this step for the other side.
NOTE: Do not attach the dishwasher. This will be done later.
Option B, Dishwasher Side Attachment
NOTE: Remove the brackets from the parts package.
Break off the end of the bracket along the scored line.
With another person holding the rear of the dishwasher to keep
it from tipping, open dishwasher door and place towel over
pump assembly and spray arm of dishwasher. This will keep
screws from falling into pump area when you are securing
dishwasher to cabinet.
Push the plastic buttons out of the side of the tub.
NOTE: Save the buttons to cover the holes after dishwasher is
installed.
Push bracket into slot on the side of dishwasher, and bend tab in
toward the side of the dishwasher so that it keeps the bracket in
place. Repeat this step for the other side of the dishwasher.
NOTE: Do not attach the dishwasher. This will be done later.
Prepare Water Supply Line
Copper tubing only: Slide nut, and 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.
18
Get ³⁄₈" compression x ¾" hose fitting with 90-degree elbow.
See the “Tools and Parts” section at the front of the guide for
part details and orders. Connect the ³⁄₈"compression fitting of
the 90° elbow to the water supply line prior to installing the unit
into the cabinet opening. Attach such that the ³⁄₄" connection is
facing upward, as shown above.
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 then start the nut onto the
elbow threads.
Flexible braided connection: Secure nut to elbow using ⁵⁄" open
ended wrench or adjustable wrench.
NOTE: Do not use Teflon
®†
tape with compression fittings.
Move Dishwasher Close to Cabinet Opening
Use 2 or more people to move and install dishwasher.
IMPORTANT: Double-check correct placement of utilities. Grasp
the sides of the dishwasher at the edges of the door panel. Tilt
dishwasher backward on wheels and move dishwasher close to
cabinet opening.
NOTE: Do not push on the front of the panel or on the console.
Panel or console may dent.
Helpful Tip: Temporarily tape utilities to the floor in the locations
shown to prohibit them from moving when dishwasher is moved
into the cabinet opening.
Check that water line is on the left-hand side of opening and
drain hose is near the center of the cabinet opening.
With another person holding the dishwasher to keep 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.

WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
dishwasher.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
19
To adjust the door spring tension, unhook the spring from the
rear leg of dishwasher.
Using a ⁵⁄₁₆" nut driver or hex socket, remove the screw from the
tensioner.
The screw can be put into one of 3 holes (1, 2, 3) in the front leg
of dishwasher. If the door closes by itself, move the tensioner to
a lower-numbered hole and replace screw. Reattach door spring
to rear leg.
NOTE: Tensioners on both sides of dishwasher should be secured
at same holes.
When door is unlatched, if door opens by itself, move the
tensioner to a higher-numbered hole and replace the screw.
Reattach door spring to rear leg.
NOTE: Tensioners on both sides of dishwasher should be secured
at same holes.
IMPORTANT: If wheels were removed, cover the floor when
moving the dishwasher. Slowly move dishwasher completely into
cabinet opening. Do not kink or pinch water line, drain hose,
power cord or direct wire between dishwasher and cabinet.
Remove cardboard from under dishwasher.
NOTES:
It is all right if dishwasher fits tightly into cabinet opening.
Do not remove insulation blanket – the blanket reduces the
sound level.
If using power cord, make sure to route end through hole in
cutout before sliding dishwasher into cabinet opening.
For models with water softener, make sure that the drain
hose stays on the hanger that is on the right-hand side and is
tucked in on the side of the unit.
Align front of dishwasher door panel with front of cabinet doors.
You may need to adjust alignment to be even with your
cabinets.
20
Check that leveling legs are firmly against the floor. Close and
latch the door, and place level against the front panel. Check
that dishwasher is centered from front to back in the opening. If
needed, adjust leveling leg until dishwasher is plumb. Repeat for
other side of dishwasher.
Helpful Tip: Push up on front of dishwasher to raise dishwasher
off the ground to adjust front legs. With some installations, it
may be easier to adjust the front leg using the ³⁄₁₆" hex-head
socket or adjustable wrench.
Place level against top front opening of tub. Check that
dishwasher is level from side-to-side. If dishwasher is not level,
adjust front legs up or down until dishwasher is level.
Connect to Water Supply
Be sure rubber washer is properly seated in fitting. Slide the
³⁄₄" fitting of the 90° elbow up to the valve and hand tighten to
avoid cross-threading. Hand tighten until the coupling is tight.
Using pliers, check the tightness of the coupling. An additional
¹⁄₄ to ¹⁄₂ turn may be required to seal the rubber gasket.
NOTE: Do not over tighten. Damage to the coupling can result.
