GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Grounding Instructions – Cable Direct
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or
an equipment grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and be
connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
Grounding Instructions – Power Cord Models
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is installed and grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.
Direct Wire Method
• The cable must be routed as shown in “Cabinet Preparation and Wire Routing”
on page 9, and extend a minimum of 24 in. from the rear wall.
• Use flexible, armored, or nonmetallic sheathed, copper wire with grounding
wire that meets the wiring requirements for your home and local codes and
ordinances.
• Use a UL Listed/CSA Approved strain relief.
Power Cord Method
• Install a 3-prong grounding type receptacle. The wall outlet can be installed in a
cabinet or on a wall adjacent to the undercounter space in which the dishwasher
is to be installed.
• Use power cord kit (part number 5304504505) under Smart Choice brand
marked with Dishwasher Install Kit With Power Cord, available for purchase
from an authorized store. The power cord and connections must comply with
local codes and ordinances.
• The recommended power cord length is 54 in. min. and 64 in. max.
