• If the door catches or rubs on the frame, reposition and/or
level the unit (see Step 10) until the door moves freely and
does not contact the cabinet frame.
The controls on these models are designed to be hidden by
your countertop. Align the dishwasher as shown in Figure
Q. Leave a 1/2" minimum gap between the underside of the
countertop and the top of the dishwasher door as shown in
Figure T.
Note:
If the drain hose gets trapped behind the unit it can
prevent the controls from being hidden by the countertop.
Note:
If this dishwasher is replacing an existing dishwasher, the
old countertop bracket screw holes may not be in the correct
position to accept a top-control model. New holes may be
required.
Tip:
The leveling legs can be used to increase or decrease
the amount of gap between the controls and the countertop
affecting the visibility of the controls.
IMPORTANT
– Leave a 1/2" minimum gap between
the controls and the underside of the countertop to prevent
condensation and damage to the control panel from
screwheads.
