Avoiding General Hazards

Do not use the dishwasher until it is completely  

installed. When opening the door on an uninstalled 

dishwasher, carefully open the door while supporting 

the rear of the unit. Failure to follow this warning can 

cause the dishwasher to tip over and result in serious 

injury.

Before installing the “L”-shaped supplied countertop 

mounting brackets (select models), decide which 

method will be used to secure the dishwasher into its 

opening. Once these mounting brackets are installed 

on the dishwasher, removing them is difficult and will 

damage the mounting brackets and the dishwasher.

In some conditions, hydrogen gas can form in a hot 

water system that has not been used for weeks. 

Hydrogen gas is explosive.

Before  filling  a  dishwasher  from  a  system  that  has 

been off for weeks, run the water from a nearby faucet 

in a well ventilated area until there is no sound or evi-

dence of gas.

Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will 

damage the dishwasher’s base and water inlet valve. 

If plumbing lines are to be soldered or sweated, keep 

the heat source at least 6″ (152.4 mm) away from the 

dishwasher’s base and water inlet valve.

Removing any cover or pulling the dishwasher from the 

cabinet can expose hot water connections, electrical 

power and sharp edges or points. Handle with care.

Avoiding Electrical Shock/Fire Hazards

Do not allow the electrical and water supply lines to 

touch. Separate channels are provided under the 

dishwasher.

Do not work on an energized circuit. Doing so could 

result in serious injury or death. Only qualified electri-

cians should perform electrical work. Do not attempt 

any work on the dishwasher electric supply circuit 

until you are certain the circuit is de-energized.

Make sure electrical work is properly installed. There 

should be no loose electrical connections. Ensure all 

electrical connections are properly made.

The customer has the responsibility of ensuring that the 

dishwasher electrical installation is in compliance with 

all national and local electrical codes and ordinances. 

The dishwasher is designed for an electrical supply 

of 120V, 60 Hz, AC, connected to a dishwasher-

dedicated, properly grounded electrical circuit with a 

fuse or breaker rated for 15 amps. Electrical supply 

conductors shall be a minimum #14 AWG copper only 

wire rated at 75°C (167°F) or higher.

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, 

permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding 

conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and 

connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or 

lead on the appliance. Do not use extension cords.

Avoiding Plumbing/Scalding Hazards

Do not perform any work on a charged hot water line. 

Serious injury could result. Only qualified plumbershould 

perform plumbing work. Do not attempt any work on 

the dishwasher hot water supply plumbing until you 

are certain the hot water supply is shut off.

Do not over tighten the 90° elbow. Doing so may 

damage the water inlet valve and cause a water leak.

Temperatures required for soldering and sweating 

will damage the dishwasher’s water inlet valve. If 

plumbing lines are to be soldered or sweated, keep 

the heat source at least 6″ (152.4 mm) away from the 

dishwasher’s water inlet valve.

Check local plumbing codes for approved plumbing 

procedures and accessories. All plumbing should be 

done in accordance with national and local codes.

These instructions depict an installation method for 

stainless steel braided hose or PEX hot water supply 

lines. If using copper tubing or other material for 

water supply, defer to a licensed plumber for proper 

installation.
