Location Requirements Dishwasher must be fully enclosed (top, sides, back, and floor) upon installation. A side panel kit is available from your dealer for installing your dishwasher at the end of your cabinetry. An optional moisture barrier accessory is also available for installing underneath a wooden countertop. See the "Tools and Parts" section at the front of the guide for part details and orders. Check location where dishwasher will be installed. The location must provide: ■ Convenient access for loading and unloading dishes. Corner locations require a 2" (5.1 cm) minimum clearance between the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet. ■ Easy access to water, electricity and drain. ■ A square opening for proper operation and appearance. ■ The cabinet front to be perpendicular to floor. ■ A level floor. Helpful Hint: If floor at front of opening is not level with floor at rear of opening, shims may be used to level dishwasher. NOTE: To avoid shifting during dishwasher operation, shims must be securely attached to the floor. ■ The location where the dishwasher will be installed must provide clearance between motor and flooring. Motor should not touch the floor. ■ Do not install dishwasher over carpeted flooring. ■ Grounded electrical supply required. ■ Make sure pipes, wires and drain hose are within the shaded area shown in the "Product and Cabinet Opening Dimensions" section. ■ Do not run drain lines, water lines or electrical wiring where they can interfere with or contact dishwasher motor or legs. ■ Shelter dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher against freezing. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty. NOTE: If dishwasher will be left unused for a period of time or in a location where it may be subject to freezing, have it winterized by authorized service personnel. 4
