STEP 14

PRE-TEST CHECKLIST

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

package

… Locate the Owner's Manual in the literature

package.

… Read the Owner's Manual for operating

instructions.

… Check door opening and closing. If door does

not open and close freely or tends to fall, check
spring adjustments. See Step 1.

… Check to be sure that wiring is secure under

the dishwasher, not pinched or in contact with
door springs or other components. See Step 9.

… Check door alignment with tub. If door hits tub,

level dishwasher. See Step 10.

… Pull lower rack out, about half way. Check to

be sure it does not roll back or forward on the
door. If the rack moves, adjust leveling legs.
See step 10.

… Check door alignment with cabinet. If door hits

cabinet, reposition or relevel dishwasher. See
step 10.

… Verify water supply and drain lines are not

kinked or in contact with other components.
Contact with motor or dishwasher frame could
cause noise. See Step 8.

… Turn on the sink hot water faucet and verify

water temperature. Incoming water
temperature must be between 120 ºF et 150 ºF.
A minimum of 120 ºF temperature is required
for best washer performance. See "Prepare
Hot Water Line", page 5.

… Add 2 quarts of water to the bottom of the

dishwasher to lubricate the pump seal.

connections if needed.

STEP 13

CONNECT POWER

SUPPLY

Skip this step if equipped with power cord. Verify
that power is turned off at the source.

• Remove junction box cover "A".
• Locate the three dishwasher wires, (white, black

and green) with stripped ends. Insert
dishwasher wires through the small hole in the
junction box "B".

• Secure house wiring to the bottom of the

junction box with a strain relief "C".

• Use wire nuts to connect incoming ground to

green, white to white and black to black "D".

• Replace junction box cover "E". Check to be

sure that wires are not pinched under the cover.

WARNING

If house wiring is not 2-wire with
ground, a ground must be pro-
vided by the installer. When
house wiring is aluminum, be
sure to use UL Listed anti-
oxidant compound and alumi-
num-to-copper connectors.
