Page 14 highlights

Connect wires black to black and white to white, using UL Listed/CSA Approved twist-on wire connectors. Determine Cabinet Opening If needed, see website for animated representation of this step. Visit www.whirlpool.com/electrical under FAQ tab. Measure height of cabinet opening from underside of countertop to floor where dishwasher will be installed (you will need to measure the lowest point on the underside of the countertop and the highest point on the floor). Refer to "Dishwasher Height Adjustment Chart" for wheel position and the number of turns needed. Tighten strain relief screws to secure cord. NOTES: ■ If the minimum cabinet opening height is less than 34" (86.4 cm), the rear wheels can be removed for additional clearance. This will allow stainless steel tub dishwashers to fit into a 33¹⁄₂" (85.1 cm) high cabinet opening and plastic tub dishwashers to fit into a 33⁷⁄₈" (86 cm) high cabinet opening. If the rear wheels are removed, the dishwasher will be more difficult to move. (Measurements are approximate. Wheels and legs are preset at the factory for 34¹⁄₂" [87.6 cm].) ■ Depending upon the type of tub you have, the rear wheels are repositioned differently. Refer to the section that applies to your tub type. Place wires inside terminal box. Insert tabs on left side of cover. Make sure wires are tucked inside box. Close cover ensuring wires are not pinched. Use ¹⁄₄" nut driver or Torx T20 screwdriver and previously removed screw to secure cover. NOTE: Do not plug into outlet until instructed to do so. 14
