Choose Attachment Option
IMPORTANT: The dishwasher must be secured to the cabinet as
one of the final steps. Prepare the dishwasher for this by
attaching the two brackets found in the parts bag to the
dishwasher.
For countertops that are wood, laminate, or another similar
surface, use Option A.
For countertops that are marble, granite, or another hard
surface, use Option B.
Option A, Countertop Attachment
Remove the brackets from the package and insert into the open
slots on the left-hand and right-hand top of the dishwasher
collar, as shown.
Using a pair of pliers, bend the tab down to secure the bracket
in place. Repeat this step for the other side.
NOTE: Do not attach the dishwasher. This will be done later.
Option B, Dishwasher Side Attachment
NOTE: Remove the brackets from the parts package.
Break off the end of the bracket along the scored line.
With another person holding the rear of the dishwasher to keep
it from tipping, open dishwasher door and place towel over
pump assembly and spray arm of dishwasher. This will keep
screws from falling into pump area when you are securing
dishwasher to cabinet.
Push the plastic buttons out of the side of the tub.
NOTE: Save the buttons to cover the holes after dishwasher is
installed.
Push bracket into slot on the side of dishwasher, and bend tab in
toward the side of the dishwasher so that it keeps the bracket in
place. Repeat this step for the other side of the dishwasher.
NOTE: Do not attach the dishwasher. This will be done later.
Prepare Water Supply Line
Copper tubing only: Slide nut, and then ferrule about 1" (2.5 cm)
onto copper tubing.
NOTE: To avoid vibration during operation, route the water
supply line so that it does not touch the dishwasher base, frame
or motor.
