With another person holding the dishwasher to keep it from tipping, open and close the door a few times. If the door closes or falls open under its own weight, the door tension will need to be adjusted. When door is unlatched, if door opens by itself, move the tensioner to a higher-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. To adjust the door spring tension, unhook the spring from the rear leg of dishwasher. Using a nut driver or hex socket, remove the screw from the tensioner. The screw can be put into one of 3 holes (1, 2, 3) in the front leg of dishwasher. If the door closes by itself, move the tensioner to a lower-numbered hole and replace screw. Reattach door spring to rear leg. NOTE: Tensioners on both sides of dishwasher should be secured at same holes. IMPORTANT: If wheels were removed, cover the floor when moving the dishwasher. 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. ■ For models with water softener, make sure that the drain hose stays on the hanger that is on the right-hand side and is tucked in on the side of the unit. 20
