BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Remove all power leading to the appliance from the
circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning installation.
Failure to do so can result in a risk of electrical shock.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to persons,
the installer must ensure that the dishwasher is completely
enclosed at the time of installation.
The improper connection of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service representative
if you are in doubt that the appliance is properly
grounded. If house wiring is not 2-wire with ground, a
ground must be by the installer. When house wiring
is aluminum, be sure to use UL-Listed anti-oxidant
compound and aluminum-to-copper connectors.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to
persons, the installer should check to ensure that wires are
not pinched or damaged, the house wiring is attached to the
junction box bracket through a strain relief, and all electrical
connections made at the time of install (wire nuts) are
contained inside of
the junction box cover.
Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug with this
appliance.
