Drain Plumbing
Under Sink Drain Connection
If the dishwasher is to drain either directly into the
household drain plumbing or through an air gap, install a
y-branch tailpiece under the sink as shown in Figure 7.
Installing an Air Gap
If local ordinances require an air gap, as shown in
Figure 8, install it according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Disposer
Make sure to remove the disposer’s dishwasher drain
connection plug before connecting the dishwasher drain
hose. See Figure 9.

The dishwasher can be secured into its enclosure in two
ways:
1 Top Mount is used for countertops made of wood or
other materials that can easily drilled. Orient the
mounting brackets as shown in Figure 10, and
position the two small tabs on the mounting brackets
over the two slots on the dishwasher’s front corners.
Push the mounting brackets down firmly to insert the
tabs into the slots.
2 Side Mount is used for countertops made of marble,
granite, or other very hard materials that cannot be
easily drilled. Bend the mounting brackets along the
small holes and in the same direction as the two small
tabs. Orient the mounting brackets as shown in Figure
10, and position the two small tabs on the mounting
brackets over the two slots on the dishwasher’s front
corners. Push the mounting brackets down firmly to
insert the tabs into the slots.
Before installing the supplied countertop mounting
brackets, decide which method of securing the
dishwasher into its enclosure will be used. Once
the mounting brackets are installed on the dish-
washer, removing them is difficult and will damage
the mounting brackets and the dishwasher.

Tip Over Hazard
To avoid a tip over hazard, do not use the
dishwasher until it is completely installed. When
opening the door on an uninstalled dishwasher,
carefully open the door while supporting the rear
of the unit. Failure to follow this warning can
result in serious injury.
