7. Reinstall terminal box cover with
wires inside terminal box.
The cover must be outside the box on
the left side.
8. Make sure no wires are pinched by
cover.
9. Do not plug the dishwasher cord into the outlet until instructed
to do so.
10. Check that power supply cord does not touch dishwasher motor
or lower part of dishwasher tub.
Connect to water supply
1. Tighten 90° elbow fitting to valve.
Be sure rubber washer is properly seated in fitting. Slide the ³⁄₄"
fitting up to the valve and hand tighten to avoid unintentional
cross-threading. Hand tighten until the coupling is tight. Using
pliers, check the tightness of the coupling. An additional ¹⁄₄ to
¹⁄₂ turn may be required to seal the rubber gasket.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling can result.
2. Check for leaks.
Place paper towel under 90° elbow fitting. Turn on water
supply and check for leaks. If leak occurs, repeat previous step.
Connect to drain
1. To help minimize vibration,
route drain hose to avoid
contact with motor, door
springs, water line, cabinet,
flooring or the edge of the
hole where it passes
through the cabinet.
2. Do not remove drain loop
from side of dishwasher.
3. Place pan under end of
drain hose. Pan will collect
any water in drain hose.
4. Place the smaller drain hose clamp onto the small end of the
drain hose.
5. Push the drain hose into the connector up to the stop on the
drain hose.
6. Use pliers to open clamp and slide clamp onto connector
between stops on connector as shown.
Secure dishwasher in cabinet opening
1. If you have not already done so, open dishwasher door and
place towel over pump assembly and spray arm of dishwasher.
This will keep screws from falling into pump area if you
unintentionally drop them when securing dishwasher to
countertop.
2. Check that dishwasher is still level and centered side to side in
the opening.
3. Secure dishwasher to countertop or sides of cabinet with 2,
#10 x ¹⁄₂" Phillips-head screws. The dishwasher must be secured
to keep it from tipping when door is opened.
NOTE: You must drill pilot holes in cabinet to avoid splitting
the wood before installing screws.
4. Open door about 3" (7.6 cm) and check that space between
inner door and tub is equal on both sides. If spacing is not
equal, loosen bracket screws and shift tub. Tighten bracket
screws.
