Option 2, Power supply cord method:
NOTE: A mating, three prong, ground-type wall receptacle
is required in a cabinet next to the dishwasher opening.
1. Drill a 1-1/2"
(3.8 cm) hole in
the cabinet rear
or side. Preferred
and optional
locations are
shown.
2. Wood cabinet:
Sand hole until
smooth.
Metal cabinet: Cover hole with grommet (Part
No. 302797) included with power supply cord kit.
Install the water line
Helpful Tip: Routing the water line through the left side
of cabinet opening will make water connection easier.
1. Drill a minimum 1/2" (1.3 cm) hole in the cabinet side,
rear or floor. Preferred and optional locations are
shown.
2. Measure overall length
of copper tubing
required.
3. Attach copper tubing
to the water line with a
manual shutoff valve.
4. Slowly feed copper
tubing through hole in
cabinet. Copper tubing will bend and kink easily, so be
gentle. The copper tubing should be far enough into the
cabinet opening to connect it to dishwasher inlet on the
front left of the dishwasher.
5. Turn water shutoff valve to “ON” position. Flush water
into a shallow pan to get rid of particles that may clog
the inlet valve.
6. Turn shutoff valve to “OFF” position.
Install the drain hose
IMPORTANT: Always use a new drain hose.
1. Drill a 1-1/2" (3.8 cm)
diameter hole in
cabinet wall or floor on
the side of the opening
closest to the sink.
Option 1, Waste disposer – with air gap:
1. Remove the disposer knockout plug. Cut end of drain
hose if needed (do not cut ribbed section).
2. Attach drain hose to air gap with large spring-type
clamp. If the drain hose was cut, use a 1-1/2" to 2"
(3.8 to 5 cm) screw-type clamp*.
3. Use a rubber hose connector* with spring or screw-
type clamps* to connect air gap to disposer inlet.
This connection must be before the drain trap and at
least 20" (50.8 cm) above the floor where dishwasher
will be installed.
4. Insert drain hose
through hole cut in
cabinet to the front
center of opening where
drain connection will be
made.

Helpful Tip: To reduce the vibration of the hose, keep
the hose away from the floor and the edge of the hole
where it passes through the cabinet.
