FILL HOSE TO FILL VALVE CONNECTION  
Be sure rubber washer is properly seated in fitting. Slide the 3/4"  
(19 mm) fitting of the 90 elbow up to the valve and hand tighten  
it to avoid cross-threading. Hand tighten until the coupling is  
tight.

power cord kit.  
Using pliers, check the tightness of the coupling. An additional  
1/4 to 1/2 turn may be required to seal the rubber gasket. Rout  
fill hose out the rear left side of unit.  
DRAIN REQUIREMENTS  
A new drain hose is supplied with your dishwasher. If drain  
hose is not long enough, be sure to purchase only Whirlpool  
factory-certified parts. To order, refer to the contact information  
referenced in your Quick Start Guide.  
NOTE: Do not use tape with compression fitting. Do not  
over-tighten. Damage to the coupling can result. Route water  
supply line out rear of unit before setting unit up.  
NOTE: Do not connect multiple drain hoses together.  
Make sure to connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer  
inlet above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (50.8 cm)  
minimum above the floor. It is recommended that the drain  
hose either be looped up and securely fastened to the  
underside of the counter or be connected to an air gap.
