STEP 12: INSTALL TRIM PIECES

In this step you will need the trim pieces set aside in Step 1.

STEP 13: INSTALL MOUNTING BRACKETS

You will need the mounting brackets and 2 #8 hex-head screws set
aside in Step 1.
You must install the mounting brackets onto the dishwasher tub
frame top or sides prior to sliding the dishwasher into place under
the countertop. This dishwasher is capable of a true-flush installation
at a 24” deep opening. The mounting brackets have several
available attachment positions to accommodate different cabinet
constructions.

Install mounting brackets on top

if the underside of

countertop is wood or wood-like material that accepts screws:

IMPORTANT -

After installing brackets and before

closing the dishwasher door, adjust the brackets by bending

them up as needed, so that they do not contact the top of the

dishwasher door and cause damage.

If you are installing the dishwasher under a counter with a short
overhang, the countertop brackets may extend beyond the edge
of the counter. If this is the case, remove the excess length by
repeatedly bending the brackets at the front notch only until they
break.

Install mounting brackets on sides

if the countertop is

granite or similar material that will not accept wood screws:
