New installation
If the dishwasher is a new installation, most of the installation work must be done before the dishwasher is moved into
place.
Replacement
If the dishwasher is replacing an old one, you must check the existing dishwasher connections for compatibility with the
new dishwasher. Replace the existing connections as necessary.

LOCATION FOR THE
DISHWASHER
The following criteria is important to ensure the best
location for the dishwasher:
• The location must have a solid floor that is able to
support the weight of the dishwasher.
• The location must be near a sink with easy access to
the water supply, drain, and electrical outlet.
For the drain to operate properly, the dishwasher
should be installed within 9.8 ft (3 m) of the sink.
• The location should let you load your dishes into the
dishwasher easily.
• The location must have sufficient space for the
dishwasher door to open easily and provide enough
space between the dishwasher and the cabinet sides
(at least 0.1 in (2 mm)).
If the dishwasher is installed in a comer, ensure that
the side of the dishwasher is more than 2 in (50 mm)
from the wall or cabinet to its right or left.
• The wall at the back must be free of obstructions.
Installing the Dishwasher
If this is a new installation, follow these steps:
1. Using a hole saw, cut a hole into the side of the
cabinet that hold the sink as shown in Figure 1-1
below.
2. If the base inside the sink cabinet is raised above
the kitchen floor and is higher than the connections
on the dishwasher, make a hole in the base inside
the cabinet and in the cabinet side as shown in
Figure 1-2.
Depending on where your electrical outlet is, you may
need to cut a hole in the opposite cabinet side.
