Grounding Instructions-Power Cord Models This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. WARNING The improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.

If cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a bushing. NOTE: Power cords with plug must pass through a separate hole in the cabinet. Electrical Connection to Dishwasher Electrical connection is on the right front of dishwasher. • For permanent connections the cable must be routed as shown in Figure E. Cable must extend a minimum of 24" from the rear wall. • For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding type receptacle in the sink cabinet rear wall, 6" min. or 18" maximum from the opening, 6" to 18" above the floor. • Use only WX09X70910 or WX09X70911 Dishwasher Power Cord Kit. 4
