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

wa rra nty.

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.

Make sure pipes, wires and drain hose are within the

shaded area shown in the "Product and Cabinet

Opening Dimensions" section. 3

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.

Additional Tips

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.
