LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
Dishwasher must be fully enclosed (top, sides, back, and oor)
upon installation. A side panel kit is available from your dealer
forinstalling your dishwasher at the end of your cabinetry.
An optional moisture barrier accessory is also available for
installing underneath a wooden countertop. See the “Tools
and Parts” section at the front of the guide for part details
andorders.
Check location where dishwasher will be installed. The location
must provide:
Convenient access for loading and unloading dishes. Corner
locations require a 2" (51 mm) minimum clearance between
the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet.
Easy access to water, electricity, and drain:
Grounded electrical supply is required.
This dishwasher has a water heating feature and also
requires a connection to a hot water supply line.
Make sure pipes, wires, and drain hose are within the
shaded area shown in the “Product and Cabinet Opening
Dimensions” section.
Do not run drain lines, water lines or electrical wiring
where they can interfere with or contact dishwasher motor
or legs.
Shelter dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher
against freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by
the warranty.
NOTE: 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.
If installed in new construction, ush the water supply line
of debris before connecting it to the ll valve. If it is not
ushed, debris from the water supply could plug the ll
valve screen.
A square opening for proper operation and appearance
The cabinet front to be perpendicular to oor
A level oor
Helpful Hint: If oor at front of opening is not level with
oor at rear of opening, shims may be used to level
dishwasher.
NOTE: To avoid shifting during dishwasher operation, shims
must be securely attached to the oor.
The location where the dishwasher will be installed must
provide clearance between motor and ooring. Motor
should not touch the oor.
Do not install dishwasher over carpeted ooring.

If installed in new construction, make sure the house
watersupply lines have been ushed prior to connecting
thedishwasher to remove any debris that may exist in
thesupply line.
NOTE: If replacing an existing dishwasher, it is recommended
to install a new water line (see the “Tools and Parts” section
at the front of the guide for part details) and drain hose
(supplied) with the new dishwasher.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are
adequateand in conformance with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition, and all local codes
andordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association

You Must Have:
120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-amp, fused
electricalsupply
Copper wire only
A maximum of 2 eld wiring supply conductors
(12AWGlargest size) plus 1 grounding conductor
arepermitted in the terminal box.
We Recommend:
A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker
A separate circuit
If Connecting Dishwasher with a Power Cord:
Use UL Listed power cord kit marked for
use with dishwasher. See the “Tools and
Parts” section at the front of the guide for part
details and orders.
Plug into a grounded 3prong outlet. Outlet must
meet all localcodes and ordinances.
If Connecting Dishwasher with Direct Wiring:
Use exible, armored, or nonmetallic
sheathed copper wire with grounding
wire that meets the wiring requirements
for your home and local codes and ordinances.
Use a UL Listed/CSA Approved metallic strain relief.
Seethe“Tools and Parts” section at the front of the
guideforpart details and orders.
DRAIN REQUIREMENTS
A new drain hose is supplied with your dishwasher.
Ifdrainhose is not long enough, use a new drain hose
witha maximum length of 12 ft (3.7 m) that meets all
currentAHAM/IAPMO test standards, is resistant to heat
and detergent, and ts the 1" (25 mm) drain connector of
thedishwasher. See the “Tools and Parts” section at the
front ofthe guide for part details and orders.
NOTE: Do not connect multiple drain hoses together.
Make sure to connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer
inlet above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (508
mm) minimum above the oor. 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" (508 mm) above
suboororoor.
If required, the air gap should be installed in accordance
withthe air gap installation instructions. When you are
connecting the air gap, a rubber hose (not provided) will

CUSTOM PANEL INSTALLATION
(CUSTOM PANEL MODELS ONLY)
For custom panel installation, refer to the Custom Panel
Installation Instruction Sheet (Part Number W10750117A).
Complete custom panel installation before proceeding to
the“Choose Anchor Attachment Method” section.
CHOOSE ANCHOR ATTACHMENT METHOD
IMPORTANT: The dishwasher must be secured to the
cabinet as one of the nal steps. Prepare the dishwasher for
this by attaching the 2 brackets found in the parts bag to
thedishwasher.
– For countertops that are wood, laminate or another
similar surface, use Countertop Attachment: go to
Step 37.
– For countertops that are marble, granite, or another
hard surface, use Side Attachment: go to Step 38.
NOTE: If the gap between the top of the door and the
underside of the counter top is tight (less than
1
/
4
" [6.35 mm]),
we suggest using Side Attachment to keep from scratching
the User Interface or console with the anchor screws.

Open dishwasher door to prepare for securing the dishwasher
tothe countertop or side cabinet.
NOTES:
The dishwasher must be secured to keep it from shifting
whenthe door is opened or closed.
Do not drop screws into bottom of dishwasher.
