Dishwasher Installation
35(7(67&+(&./,67
Review this list after installing your dishwasher to
avoid charges for a service call that is not covered by
your warranty.
• Check to be sure power is OFF.
• Open door and remove all foam and paper packaging.
• Locate the Owner’s Manual set aside in Step 1.
• Read the Owner’s Manual for operating instructions.
• Check door opening and closing. If door does not open
and close freely, check for proper routing of spring cable
over pulley. If door drops or closes when released, adjust
spring tension. See Step 2.
• Check to be sure that wiring is secure under the
dishwasher, not pinched or in contact with door springs or
other components. See Step 19.
• Check door alignment with tub. If door hits tub, level
dishwasher. See Step 15.
• Check door alignment with cabinet. If door hits cabinet,
reposition dishwasher. See Step 14.
• Check that door spring does not contact water line, fill
hose, wiring or other components. See Step 14.
• Verify water supply and drain lines are not kinked or in
contact with other components. Contact with motor or
dishwasher frame could cause noise.
• Turn on the sink hot water faucet and verify water
temperature. Incoming water temperature must
be between 120°F and 140°F. A minimum of 120°F
temperature is required for best wash performance. See
“Prepare Hot Water Line,” page 5.
• Add 1 quarts of water to the bottom of the dishwasher to
lubricate the pump seal.
• Turn on water supply. Check for leaks. Tighten
connections if needed.
• Remove protective film if present from the control panel
and door.

• Turn on power supply or plug power cord into outlet, if
equipped.
• Select a cycle to run and push the START button.
• Ensure the door is latched. Dishwasher should start.
• Check to be sure that water enters the dishwasher. If
water does not enter the dishwasher, check to be sure
that water and power are turned on.
• Check for leaks under the dishwasher. If a leak is found,
turn off power at the breaker, and then tighten water
connections. Restore power after leak is corrected.
• Check for leaks around the door. A leak around the door
could be caused by door rubbing or hitting against
adjacent cabinets. Reposition the dishwasher if necessary.
See Step 14.
• Press and hold the START button for 3 seconds to cancel
the cycle. The unit will begin to drain. Check drain lines. If
leaks are found, turn off power at the breaker and correct
plumbing as necessary. Restore power after corrections
are made. See Steps 8, 10, 11 and 18.
• Open dishwasher door and make sure all of the water
has drained. If not, check that disposer plug has been
removed and/or air gap is not plugged. Also check drain
hose to be sure it is not kinked underneath or behind
dishwasher. See Step 18.
• Press START button once again and run dishwasher through
another cycle. Check for leaks and correct if required.
• Repeat this step as necessary.
