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

the number of turns needed.

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 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].)

Turn both leveler legs to the same height. Put wheels in the

required position determined from “Dishwasher Height

Adjustment Chart.”

15

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.

Custom Panel Installation

For custom panel installation, refer to the Custom Panel

Installation Insert Sheet (Part Number W10438319A). Complete

hose is near the center of the cabinet opening.

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

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.

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 three holes (1, 2, 3) in the front

leg of dishwasher. If the door closes by itself, move the tensioner

to a higher number hole and replace the screw. Reattach door

spring to rear leg.

NOTE: Tensioners on both sides of dishwasher should be secured

at same holes.

When door is unlatched and door opens by itself, move the

tensioner to a lower 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 to avoid damage to the floor. Slowly

move dishwasher completely into cabinet opening. Do not kink

or pinch water line, drain hose, power supply cord or direct wire

between dishwasher and cabinet. Remove cardboard from

under dishwasher.

NOTES:
