Page 17 highlights

When door is unlatched and door opens by itself, move the tensioner to a lower numbered hole and replace the screw. Reattach door spring to rear leg. NOTE: Tensioners on both sides of dishwasher should be secured at same holes. Check that leveling legs are firmly against the floor. Close and latch the door, and place level against the front panel. Check that dishwasher is centered from front to back in the opening. If needed, adjust leveling leg until dishwasher is plumb. Repeat for other side of dishwasher. Helpful Tip: Push up on front of dishwasher to raise dishwasher off the ground to adjust front legs. With some installations, it may be easier to adjust the front leg using the hex head socket or adjustable wrench. IMPORTANT: If wheels were removed, cover the floor when moving the dishwasher to avoid damage to the floor. Slowly move dishwasher completely into cabinet opening. Do not kink or pinch water line, drain hose, power supply cord or direct wire between dishwasher and cabinet. Remove cardboard from under dishwasher. NOTES: ■ It is all right if dishwasher fits tightly into cabinet opening. Do not remove insulation blanket - the blanket reduces the sound level. ■ If using power cord, make sure to route end through hole in cutout before sliding dishwasher into cabinet opening. Place level against top front opening of tub. Check that dishwasher is level from side-to-side. If dishwasher is not level, adjust front legs up or down until dishwasher is level. Align front of dishwasher door panel with front of cabinet doors. You may need to adjust alignment to be even with your cabinets. 17
