Dishwasher Installation  
PRETEST CHECKLIST  
Review this list after installing your dishwasher to  
avoid charges for a service call that is not covered  
by your Warranty.  
• Check to be sure power is OFF.  
• Open door and remove all foam and paper packaging.  
• Locate the Owner’s Manual.  
• Read the Owner’s Manual for operating instructions.  
• Check door opening and closing. If door does not  
open and close freely, check for proper spring  
adjustments. If door drops or closes when released,  
adjust spring tension. See Step 1.  
• Check to be sure that wiring is secure under the  
dishwasher, not pinched or in contact with door  
springs or other components. See Step 13.  
• Check door alignment with tub. If door hits tub, level  
dishwasher. See Step 14.  
DISHWASHER WET TEST  
STEP 16  
STEP 18  
(CONT)  
• Close dishwasher door. Dishwasher should start.  
• Check to be sure that water enters the dishwasher.  
If water does not enter the dishwasher, check to be  
sure that water and power are turned on.  
• Check for leaks under the dishwasher. If a leak is found,  
turn off power at the breaker, and then tighten water  
connections. Restore power after leak is corrected.  
NOTE: A small amount of water may splash out of the  
fill funnel, on the right side of the tub, during the first  
use after installation. Splash-out is most likely to occur if  
there is air in the water supply line from new construction  
or if the valve has been closed for an extended time.  
• Check for leaks around the door. A leak around  
the door could be caused by door rubbing or  
hitting against adjacent cabinets. Reposition the  
dishwasher if necessary. See Step 11.  
• Check door alignment with cabinet. If door hits  
cabinet, reposition dishwasher. See Step 11.  
• Check that door spring does not contact water line, fill  
hose, wiring or other components. See Steps 10 and 11.  
• Verify water supply and drain lines are not kinked  
or in contact with other components. Contact with  
motor or dishwasher frame could cause noise. See  
Steps 10 and 11.  
• Turn on the sink hot water faucet and verify water  
temperature. Incoming water temperature must be  
between 120°F and 140°F. A minimum of 120°F  
temperature is required for best wash performance.  
See “PREPARE HOT WATER LINE”.  
• Open dishwasher door. Press and hold the Start pad,  
until the light next to the pad turns off, to cancel the  
cycle. Close dishwasher door. The unit will begin to drain.  
Check drain lines. If leaks are found, turn off power at  
the breaker and correct plumbing as necessary. Restore  
power after corrections are made. See Steps 7 and 8.  
• Open dishwasher door and make sure all of the water  
has drained. If not, check that disposer plug has been  
removed and/or air gap is not plugged. Also check  
drain hose to be sure it is not kinked underneath or  
behind dishwasher. See Step 8.  
• Press Start button once again and run dishwasher through  
another cycle. Check for leaks and correct if required.  
• Repeat these steps as necessary.  
• Add 2 quarts of water to the bottom of the dishwasher  
to lubricate the pump seal.  
• Turn on water supply. Check for leaks. Tighten  
connections if needed.

placing ends of insulation  
in left and right brackets.  
Insulation should be  
installed up under tub.  
• Place the inner toekick  
piece (with slots) against the  
toekick bracket. The slots  
should align with toekick.

bottom of the cabinet opening, with no twisting or  
distortion of the tub or door.

and adjacent cabinets or walls.

toekick screws.  
• Use both toekick pieces for all installation heights.
