Connect to Water Supply 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. Be sure rubber washer is properly seated in fitting. Slide the ³⁄₄" fitting of the 90° elbow up to the valve and hand tighten to avoid cross-threading. Hand tighten until the coupling is tight. Using pliers, check the tightness of the coupling. An additional ¹⁄₄ to ¹⁄₂ turn may be required to seal the rubber gasket. NOTE: Do not over tighten. Damage to the coupling can result. Place paper towel under 90° elbow fitting. Turn on water supply and check for leaks. If leak occurs, repeat previous step. NOTE: Do not use Teflon®† tape with compression fittings. Connect to Drain 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. Place towel under drain hose to catch any water in drain hose. Place the small drain hose clamp onto the small end of the drain hose. Push the new drain hose into the rubber drain hose connector up to the drain hose stop. †®TEFLON is a registered trademark of E.I. Du Pont De Nemours and Company. 19
