43. Check for plumb and adjust legs if needed
Check that leveling legs are firmly against the floor. Close and
latch the door and place level against the front panel. Check
that dishwasher is centered from front to back in the opening.
If needed, adjust leveling leg until dishwasher is plumb.
Repeat for other side of dishwasher.
Helpful Tip: Push up on front of dishwasher to raise
dishwasher off the ground to adjust front legs. With some
installations, it may be easier to adjust the front leg using a
3/16" hex head socket or adjustable wrench. If the gap
between the top of the door and the underside of the
countertop is tight (less than 1/4" [6 mm]), we suggest side
anchoring to keep from scratching the control panel or
console.

dishwasher is level from side to side. If dishwasher is not

Secure Dishwasher in Cabinet
Opening
45. Double-check dishwasher alignment in
cabinet opening
Check that dishwasher is still level front to back and side to
side in the cabinet opening.
Open dishwasher door and place towel over pump assembly
and spray arm of dishwasher. For some models, you may
have to remove lower dish rack. This will keep screws from
falling into pump area when you are securing dishwasher to
countertop or cabinet.
46. Secure dishwasher
A
A. Screw to side cabinet
Open dishwasher door to prepare for securing the
dishwasher to the countertop or side cabinet.
NOTES:
n The dishwasher must be secured to keep it from shifting
when the door is opened or closed.
n Do not drop screws into bottom of dishwasher.
n Locate brackets installed in the “Choose Anchor
Attachment Method” section, either on top or on the sides
of the dishwasher.
n If countertop anchoring: Secure dishwasher to the
countertop with two #10 x 1/2" Phillips-head screws
(included).
n If side anchoring: Drill pilot holes in cabinet to avoid
splitting the wood. Secure dishwasher to cabinet with two
#10 x 1/2" Phillips-head screws (included). Remove upper
rack for easier access.
