Direct wire - route cable Helpful Tip: Place cardboard under dishwasher until installed in cabinet opening to avoid damaging floor covering. Using 2 or more people, grasp sides of dishwasher door frame and place the dishwasher on its back. Do not use the door panel as a worktable without first covering it with a towel to avoid scratching the door panel. NOTE: On some models, once the dishwasher is on its back, pull on the door handle to remove it from the access panel. If installing with direct wire, route the cable as shown. Route cable from power supply through cabinet hole. (Cable must extend to the right-front side of cabinet opening.) Tape cable to the floor in area shown. This will prohibit cable from moving when dishwasher is moved into cabinet opening. NOTE: If removing a previous dishwasher with a power cord, you will need to transfer the power cord to the new dishwasher. 10
