Remove plug DISHWASHER PREPARATION Dishwasher preparation involves four tasks: • Installing the Mounting Brackets • Removing the Toe Panel • Installing the 90° elbow fitting • Junction Box Preparation Installing the Countertop Mounting Brackets Figure 9 Step 1 Step 2 Figure 10 Step 1 Step 2 Figure 11 Before installing the supplied countertop mounting brackets, decide which method of securing the dishwasher into its enclosure will be used. Once the mounting brackets are installed on the dishwasher, removing them is difficult and will damage the mounting brackets and the dishwasher. The dishwasher can be secured into its enclosure in two ways: 1 Top Mount is used for countertops made of wood or other materials that can easily drilled. Orient the mounting brackets as shown in Figure 10, and position the two small tabs on the mounting brackets over the two slots on the dishwasher's front corners. Push the mounting brackets down firmly to insert the tabs into the slots. 2 Side Mount is used for countertops made of marble, granite, or other very hard materials that cannot be easily drilled. Bend the mounting brackets along the small holes and in the same direction as the two small tabs. Orient the mounting brackets as shown in Figure 11, and position the two small tabs on the mounting brackets over the two slots on the dishwasher's front corners. Push the mounting brackets down firmly to insert the tabs into the slots. WARNING Tip Over Hazard To avoid a tip over hazard, 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 result in serious injury. 7
