SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Warning! – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
3. Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
4. When loading items to be washed:

1) Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal; 2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

1. Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations.
2. Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
3. Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
4. Do not tamper with controls.
5. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish racks of the dishwasher.
6. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.
7. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
8. Remove the door or lid to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

PREPARE DISHWASHER

WARNING

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher until completely installed. Do not push down on open door. Doing so can result in serious injury.

WARNING

EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD

Use two people to move and install dishwasher. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

1. Grasp sides of dishwasher door and place dishwasher on its back.
2. Remove two screws "A" attaching access panel "B" and lower panel "C" to dishwasher using a 1/4" hex socket, nut driver or Phillips screwdriver. Remove panels and set panels aside in a safe place. Make sure that grounding clip "D" is attached to the lower panel.
3. Apply pipe joint compound "E" to 90° elbow fitting "F" and connect fitting to water inlet valve "G". Tighten elbow until snug, making sure that it faces to the rear.

Helpful Tip:

Put cardboard under dishwasher until it is installed. The cardboard will help protect floor during installation.

1. Remove terminal box cover "H". Pull appliance wires "I" through hole in terminal box. Do not untie the knot in the wires.

If you are direct wiring: install a UL-listed/CSA-certified clamp connector "J" to the terminal box. If using conduit use a UL-listed/CSA certified conduit connector. If you are installing a power supply cord kit, do so now and follow kit instructions.

1. Measure height of cabinet opening from underside of countertop to floor where dishwasher will be installed "K" (you need the lowest point). Check chart for that height opening. Put wheels "L" in the required position. Turn both front leveler legs to the same height.

Min Cutout Height	Wheel Position (See Illustration)	Number of Turns on Front Leg
34” (86.4 cm) 1	0
34 1/4” (87 cm) 2	5
34 1/2” (87.6 cm) 3	0

If the minimum cutout height is less than 34" (86.4 cm), the adjustable legs can be removed for additional clearance. This will allow the dishwasher to fit into a 33 4/5" (85.9 cm) high cutout, but the dishwasher will be more difficult to move into position. If the wheels are removed, protect the floor when moving the dishwasher.

1. Stand dishwasher upright.
2. The dishwasher must be secured to the cabinet. There are two brackets on top of the dishwasher that usually can be attached to the countertop. If this is not possible, the brackets "M" may be moved to the sides of the dishwasher.

If you are going to attach the dishwasher to the countertop, skip to step 13.

If you are going to attach the dishwasher to the sides of the cabinet, follow steps 8 through 12.

1. To remove the brackets from the top, flatten tab "N" at back of brackets with pliers and pull the brackets out of the slots "O".
2. Break off the end of the bracket along the scored line "P".
3. Open dishwasher door and place towel "Q" over pump assembly and spray arm of dishwasher. This will prevent screws from falling into pump area when securing dishwasher to countertop.
4. Open dishwasher door and push the plastic buttons "R" out of the side of the tub.

Note: Save the buttons to cover the holes after dishwasher is installed.

1. Push bracket into slot "S" on the side of dishwasher and bend tab in towards the side of the dishwasher so that it keeps the bracket in place.

Helpful tip:

Built-up floors.

Measure height of opening from underside of countertop to built-up floor. If the height is at least 34-1/4" (87 cm) min., the dishwasher will fit into the opening without modification to the countertop or flooring.

Put wheels "L" in position 1 and turn the front leveler legs until they are fully retracted. Add shims as needed in the area shown to bring dishwasher up to proper height. Note: Shims must be securely attached to floor to prevent their movement when the dishwasher is operated.

1. Check the door spring tension. With another person holding the dishwasher to prevent it from tipping, open and close the door a few times. The door should open and close easily.

To adjust the door spring tension, unhook the spring "T" from the rear leg of the dishwasher. With a 5/16" nut driver or hex socket, remove the screw "U" from the tensioner "V". The screw can be put into one of three holes "1", "2", "3", in front leg of dishwasher. The dishwasher is shipped with the screw in the back hole.

If the door opened by itself, move the tensioner to hole "2" or "3" and replace screw. Re-attach door spring to the rear leg. Tensioners on both sides of dishwasher should be secured at same holes.

1. Grasp the dishwasher door at the edges of the door panel "O". Tilt dishwasher backwards on wheels "P". Move dishwasher close to cabinet opening. Do not push on front of panel or on console- they may dent.
2. If dishwasher has a power supply cord, insert power supply cord into hole cut into cabinet.
3. Check that water line is on the left side of opening and drain hose is near the center of the hole in the cabinet. If using direct wire, check that it is on the right side of opening.
4. Carefully move dishwasher completely into cabinet opening. Do not kink or pinch copper tubing, drain hose, power supply cord or direct wire between dishwasher and cabinet. Center the dishwasher in the opening.

HELPFUL TIP: Built-up floors.

Tilt dishwasher backward to move into opening.

Once in position, support front of dishwasher by lowering or shimming front feet.

1. Remove cardboard from under dishwasher.

HELPFUL TIP:

It is okay if dishwasher fits tightly into cabinet opening. Do not remove insulation blanket - it reduces the sound level.

1. Align front of dishwasher door panel "Y" with cabinet doors "Z". You may need to adjust alignment to achieve the appropriate appearance.

HELPFUL TIP:

Prop up one side of frame to hold dishwasher up off floor when adjusting front legs.

1. Check that leveling legs "AA" are firmly against the floor. Close and latch the door, and place level against the front panel "BB". Check that dishwasher is plumb. Adjust leveling legs or add shims under rear wheels until dishwasher is level. Note: Shims must be securely attached to floor to prevent their movement when the dishwasher is operated. Repeat for other side of dishwasher. Place level against top front opening of tub "CC". Check that dishwasher is level from side to side. If dishwasher is not level, adjust front legs up or down until dishwasher is level.

INSTALL ADDITIONAL SOUND INSULATION

1. The DWL3525, DWL4035 and the DWL7075 model dishwashers are equipped with additional sound insulation. See the diagram at the lower left for model specific sound insulation parts.
2. Orient the sound pad "D" as shown and insert it under the door. Push the pad against the dishwasher frame. The top surface of the pad should be in contact with the bottom of the dishwasher tub. Make sure the pad is not touching nearby components.
3. Orient the sound mat "E" as shown and fold the sound mat at the top single fold groove. Push the mat against the sound pad "D" and fold at one of the lower fold grooves so the mat contacts the bottom of the dishwasher tub and the floor.

CHECK OPERATION

1. Read the Use and Care Guard included with your dishwasher.
2. Check that all parts have been installed and no steps were skipped. Check that you have all the tools you used.
3. At fuse box or circuit breaker, turn on electrical power supply to dishwasher. Start dishwasher and allow it to complete the shortest wash cycle. After

the first two minutes, unlatch door, wait five seconds, then open door. Check to see that there is water in the bottom of the dishwasher and that there are no water leaks.

1. Check that grounding clip "A" is attached to the lower panel. Place the lower panel "B" behind the access panel "C". Some models have insulation "D" on the access panel which must fall behind the insulation "E" on the lower panel. Hold the two panels together and place them against dishwasher leg.

Reinstall the screws through the holes in the access panel and the slots in the lower panel. Install the right side screw first. Check that the lower edge of the lower panel contacts the floor. Tighten the screws.

If the dishwasher does not operate:

• Has the circuit breaker tripped or the house fuse blown? • Is the door closed tightly and latched?
• Has the cycle been set correctly to start the dishwasher? • Is the water turned on?
