Location Requirements
Grounded electrical supply required.
Do not run drain lines, water lines or electrical wiring where
they can interfere with or contact dishwasher motor or legs.
The location where the dishwasher will be installed must
provide clearance between motor and flooring. Motor should not
touch the floor.
Do not install dishwasher over carpeted flooring.
Avoid damage from freezing to dishwasher and water lines leading
to dishwasher. Damage from freezing is not covered by the
warranty.
A side panel kit is available from your dealer for installing
your dishwasher at the end of your cabinetry.
A moisture barrier accessory (Part Number 4396277) is available
from your dealer for installing underneath the countertop.
Check location where dishwasher will be installed. The
location must provide:
• easy access to water, electricity and drain.
• convenient access for loading and unloading dishes.
Corner locations require a 2" (5.1 cm) minimum
clearance between the side of the dishwasher door
and the wall or cabinet.
• square opening for proper operation and appearance.
• cabinet front perpendicular to floor.
• level floor. (If floor at front of opening is not level with
floor at rear of opening, shims may be needed to level
dishwasher.)
Helpful Tip: Be sure to accurately measure dimensions
and ensure dishwasher is level if the floor in the dishwasher
opening is uneven (example: flooring extends only partway into
opening).
NOTE: To avoid shifting during dishwasher operation,
shims must be securely attached to the floor.
If dishwasher will be left unused for a period of time or in a
location where it may be subject to freezing, have it winterized by
authorized service personnel.

Drain Requirements
• A new drain hose is supplied with your dishwasher.
If the drain hose is not long enough, use a new drain hose with a
maximum length of 12’ (3.7 m) (Part Number 3385556) that
meets all current AHAM/IAPMO test standards, is resistant to
heat and detergent, and fits the 1" (2.5 cm) drain connector of the
dishwasher.
• Make sure to connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer inlet
above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (50.8 cm) minimum
above the floor. It is recommended that the drain hose either be
looped up and securely fastened to the underside of the counter,
or be connected to an air gap.
• Make sure to use an air gap if the drain hose is connected to
house plumbing lower than 20" (50.8 cm) above subfloor or floor.
• Use ¹⁄₂" minimum I.D. drain line fittings.
• If required, the air gap should be installed in accordance
with the air gap installation instructions. When connecting the air
gap, a rubber hose (not provided) will be needed to connect to the
waste tee or disposer inlet.
Water Supply Requirements
• A hot water line with 20-120 psi (138-862 kPa) water
pressure can be verified by a licensed plumber.
120°F (49°C) water at dishwasher.

Secure Dishwasher in Cabinet
Opening
1
Double check dishwasher
alignment in cabinet opening
Open dishwasher door, remove lower dish rack, and place towel
over pump assembly and lower spray arm of dishwasher. This
will keep the screws from falling into pump area when you are
securing dishwasher to countertop.
Check that dishwasher is still level front to back and side to side
in cabinet opening.
IMPORTANT: If you have solid countertops such as Corian
,
granite, etc., you must use side mounting kit (Part Number
8212560). Follow kit instructions. (Brackets included with kit.)
Remove lower dish rack
and place towel
2
NOTE: Do not drop screws into bottom of dishwasher.
Locate brackets on top of dishwasher and secure dishwasher to
countertop with two, #10 x ¹⁄₂" Phillips-head screws (included).
The dishwasher must be secured to keep it from shifting when
door is opened.
Secure dishwasher
3
Check that top of door does not contact screws, brackets, or
countertop. If it does, adjust leveling legs.
4
Check door clearance
5
Check inner spacing
Open door and check that space between dishwasher cabinet
opening and tub is equal on both sides. If spacing is not equal,
loosen bracket screws secured and shift tub. Tighten bracket
screws.

First try the solutions suggested here to possibly avoid the cost
of a service call.
• Has the circuit breaker tripped or the house fuse
blown?
• Is the door closed tightly and latched?
• Has the cycle been set correctly to start the dishwasher?
• Is the water turned on?
If none of these work, call 1-800-253-1301, or in Canada, call
1-800-807-6777.
For Roper models, call 1-800-447-6737, or in Canada call
1-800-807-6777.
If Dishwasher Does Not Operate
Expect longer wash times. Your new dishwasher will average 2
to 3 hours per load, but use nearly 40% less energy than older
models. Designed with a low wattage, low energy consumption
motor, your dishwasher washes longer to ensure exceptional
cleaning. Certain models are equipped with an optical water
sensor so the first cycle will run longer to calibrate to optical
sensor. Selecting certain options could increase cycle time past
3.5 hours.
Rinse Aid is necessary for good drying results:
This dishwasher is designed to be used with rinse aid for good
drying performance and controlling hard water deposit buildup.
Energy efficient dishwashers use less water and energy so they
depend on the water sheeting action of rinse aid for good
drying performance.
Start/Resume light may flash:
When pressing Start/Resume, you must make sure the door is
closed within 3 seconds. If you do not, the Start/Resume light
will flash until you press it again. (You must also do this when
adding a dish during the middle of a cycle.)
NOTE: If a braided supply hose is used, replace inlet hose after
5 years to reduce the risk of hose failure. Record hose installation
or replacement dates on the hose for future reference.
Additional Tips
Read the Dishwasher User Instructions that came with your
dishwasher.
Check that all parts have been installed and no steps were
skipped. Check that you have all tools used.
Start dishwasher and allow it to complete the shortest wash
cycle. After the first 2 minutes unlatch door, wait 5 seconds,
then open door. Check to see that there is water in the
bottom of the dishwasher tub. Check that dishwasher is
working properly.
If dishwasher is not working properly, disconnect power or
unplug dishwasher and see “If Dishwasher Does Not
Operatesection.
Check Operation
