Step 7: Placing the Dishwasher and Connecting the Hot Water
Supply Line
1. Adjust the three leveling legs at the bottom of the dishwasher after measuring the
height of the cabinet opening from under the countertop to the floor. (See Step 8,
Leveling the Dishwasher.)
2. Locate the hot water supply line and the power cable.
3. Place the dishwasher so that the power cable is in the right channel of the base of
the dishwasher. Use standard duct tape or cable ties to secure the electrical cable to
their adjacent channels in the base. This can prevent the electrical cable from being
squeezed when you push the dishwasher into place.
4. Pull the drain hose through the hole in the sink cabinet side wall. Keep it free of
kinks and twists.
5. Make sure the hot water supply line is not twisted, and then connect the hot water
supply line to the elbow joint.
6. Slide the dishwasher carefully into the installation space. If possible, gently pull any
excess lengths of water supply line, drain hose, or power cable back as you move the
dishwasher. Get a second or third person to help you do this if necessary.

Do not place the dishwasher on the water supply line, drain
hose, or power cable. Also, make sure they are not folded or
twisted.

Step 8: Leveling the Dishwasher
1. Open the door and place the level against the top of the
tub on the inside and check if the dishwasher is level. If it is
not level, rotate the leveling legs at the at the bottom front of
the dishwasher until the dishwasher is level. See the first note
below for instructions on adjusting the height of the front legs.
2. Use the level to check if the dishwasher is level front to
back, as shown in the Figure to the right. If the dishwasher is
not level front to back, adjust the height of the rear leg until
the dishwasher is level. See the second note below for the
instructions on adjusting the rear leg.
3. Open the door of the dishwasher and check if both the tub
and door clearances are correct. If not, rotate the leveling
legs on the bottom front of the dishwasher. You can also check
this by placing a level against the inside front vertical surface
of the tub.
installing the dishwasher
Note:
1. Before you move the dishwasher for installation, make sure to adjust the
height of the legs so the legs are as short as possible. This prevents the legs from
breaking. Level the dishwasher by adjusting the height of the legs after you have
the dishwasher in place.
2. When you prepare to move the dishwasher for installation, you should put your
hand under the base, this prevents injury to your hand.
