STEP 1
INSTALL HANDLE
(on some models)
• Remove the packaged handle from the lower rack
by pulling its shipping clips out and up.
• Using the provided 1/8” Allen wrench, loosen the set
screws to remove the shipping clips and discard them.
• Place the handle on the dishwasher door mounting
fasteners, with the set screws on the bottom side,
then tighten the set screws with the Allen wrench.
Opening the door will cause the dishwasher
to tip forward when it is not fully installed.
When opening the door prior to the
dishwasher being fully installed, hold the top of the
dishwasher securely with one hand and hold the
door with the other hand. Gloves should be worn.
