Anti-tip Bracket
The anti-tip bracket has several holes set up on a grid in order to
better locate a wall stud. At least 4 places must be used. Anti-tip
Bracket must be centered in cutout - side to side.
NOTE: Number and type of fasteners must be suitable in order to
prevent tipping. For example: use wood screws into wall studs or
masonry anchors if attaching to stone, brick or concrete.
If a wall stud can not be found or when installing
the 18” model, use the lower section of the bracket
and mount to the base board
WARNING
Proper placement of anti tip bracket is an important function of the installation
process. The installer shall check and make sure that the unit is getting engaged with
the bracket when they try to tilt the unit from top similar to the unit tipping condition.
If the depth of the cabinet is more than the speci ed dimension of
25" (63.5 cm), anti tip bracket shall be installed with spacer (Shims)
to maintain the bracket location to be 25" (63.5 cm).

Installation
WARNING
TIP OVER HAZARD
Appliance is top heavy and tips easily when not completely
installed. Keep doors closed until appliance is completely installed
and secured per installation instructions.
Use two or more people to move and install appliance. Failure to do
so can result in death or serious injury.
3. Remove units from pallets and position together
outside of the cabinet so that top connecting plate
(Item #4) can be installed. If installing on uneven
surfaces, use unit leveling feet to adjust units so
they are at the same height.
5. Fasten rear connecting plate (Item #5) to the
threaded mounting holes provided on the
rear of the unit using the 1/4”-20 x 3/4” (Item
#6) fasteners. DO NOT install using a drill.
Use manual allen wrench. (See Illustration B).
Loosely attach the bracket allowing it to pivot.
Tightening the screws will result in the bracket
bending and causing misalignment of the rear
of the units.
4. Install top connecting plate to the threaded
mounting holes provided on the top of the
cabinet using the 1/4”-20 x 3/4” (Item #6)
fasteners. DO NOT install using a drill. Use
manual allen wrench. (See Illustration A)

6. If unit leveling feet were used, lower units back onto rollers. Plug in electrical supply and roll connected units into cabinet
cutout. Units must be plugged into separate electric outlets. Connect water supply to each unit.
7. Lift units to desired height using 5/16” socket and hand ratchet. DO NOT USE A DRILL-(refer to lift pattern diagram below to
ensure that units are gradually lifted together.) **IMPORTANT** - Only make 4 turns at a time with the hand ratchet**. Attach
units to cabinet side trim using fasteners included with the units. Install stainless magnetic side trim once fastened. (Use
installation guide included with individual units as a reference.)

face of the trim should be ush with the breaker frame.
9. Once the connection to the heater and the unit installation is complete, you will need to enable the heater which was plugged
into the right hand unit. (Step 4 on page 7).
To enable the heater, on the control panel* of the
right hand unit, press the VAC and UP arrow key and
hold for 5 seconds. You will hear an alarm beep once
when it accepts the entry.
*NOTE: Control panel may vary depending on model
