Installation Instructions

CONNECT DRAIN LINE
(CONT.)
• Connect drain line to air gap, waste tee or disposer
using the previously determined method. Secure
hose with a hose clamp.
Method 1 – Air gap with waste tee or disposer
Method 2 – “High drain loop” with waste tee or
disposer
With this method you will need the drain hose hanger
set aside in Step 1.
Fasten drain hose to underside of countertop with the
provided hanger.
IMPORTANT – When connecting drain line to
disposer, check to be sure that drain plug has been
removed. DISHWASHER WILL NOT DRAIN IF PLUG
IS LEFT IN PLACE.
Tip: Avoid unnecessary service call charges for a
no drain complaint.
Make sure excess drain hose has been pulled through
the cabinet opening. This will prevent excess hose
in the dishwasher cavity from becoming kinked or
crushed by the dishwasher.

• The hose should have already been detached from the
tub at locations indicated. NOTE: Do not remove high

The molded end of the drain hose will fit 5/8” through
1” diameter inlet ports on the air gap, waste tee or
disposer.
• Determine size of inlet port.
• Cut drain hose connector
on the marked line, if
required, to fit the inlet
port.
• If a longer drain hose is required, you can purchase
an extension drain hose - GE Appliances service

(12’ length) which can be connected directly to the
drain hose already attached to the unit. To use the

the unit as shown. Use a hose cutter or razor blade
knife to cut the drain hose.
