upon installation.
An optional moisture barrier accessory is also available for
installing underneath a wooden countertop.
Check location where dishwasher will be installed. The location
must provide:

the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet.

Grounded electrical supply is required.
This dishwasher has a water-heating feature and also
requires a connection to a hot water supply line.
Make sure pipes, wires, and drain hose are within the
shaded area shown in the “Cabinet Opening Dimensions”
section.

they can interfere with or contact dishwasher legs.
Shelter dishwasher and water lines leading to dishwasher

Drain Requirements
A new drain hose is supplied with your dishwasher. If drain
hose is not long enough, use a drain hose extension with a
maximum length of 12 ft (3.7 m).
Make sure to connect drain hose to waste tee or disposer inlet
above drain trap in house plumbing and 20" (508 mm)
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.
IMPORTANT: This product is not equipped with a high loop on the
side of the dishwasher. The installer is responsible for adding a
high loop in the adjacent cabinet. A high loop is required if the
dishwasher will drain into a floor drain. This prevents water draw
off from the dishwasher during operation. When the drain is
connected to a sink drain, counter-top air-gap or disposer, the
high loop is generally not required. An check valve internal to the
drain prevents back-flow into the dishwasher.
Make sure to use an air gap if the drain hose is connected to
house plumbing lower than 20" (508 mm) above subfloor or
floor.
A
A. Air gap
If required, the air gap should be installed in accordance with
the air gap installation instructions. When you are connecting
the air gap, a rubber hose (not provided) will be needed to
connect to the waste tee or disposer inlet.
Use 1/2" (12.7 mm) minimum I.D. drain line fittings.
Water Supply Requirements
This dishwasher maybe fitted with a smart inlet hose with a
water cut off valve. Do not cut the water inlet hose for any
reason, to install, adapt or shorten.
This dishwasher has a water heating feature and also requires
a connection to a hot water supply line.
A hot water line with 20 psi to 120 psi (138 kPa to 827 kPa)
water pressure can be verified by a licensed plumber.
120°F (49°C) water at dishwasher
3/8" (9.5 mm) O.D. tubing with compression fitting or flexible
braided or non braided water supply line.
Included water inlet hose with Leak Detection System for some
models.
Included 3/8" (9.5 mm) Compression x 3/4" (19 mm) Water
inlet adapter (only for models with Leak Detection System).
If installed in new construction, make sure the house water
supply lines have been flushed prior to connecting the
dishwasher to remove any debris that may exist in the supply
line.
