Dishwasher Installation STEP 13: FASTEN DISHWASHER TO UNDERSIDE OF COUNTERTOP OR SIDES OF CABINET In this step you will need the two 5/8" Phillips head wood screws set aside in Step 1. IMPORTANT - Dishwasher must be centered in cabinet opening. Interference with cabinets or countertop will cause leaks and damage to the door panel and/or control panel. • If countertop is wood or woodlike material, fasten the dishwasher to the countertop by driving the Phillips head screws through the countertop brackets and into the countertop. • If the countertop is granite or similar material, drive Phillips screws through side mount brackets and into the adjacent cabinets. • Make sure screws are driven straight and flush to prevent interference with door operation and damage to the control panel.
