Choosing the Location Most of the installation work is done before the dishwasher is moved into place. Select a location as close to the sink as possible for ready access to water and drain lines. Any built-in dishwasher must be fully enclosed on the top, both sides and back. Therefore the cabinet space below your counter is probably the best location. For proper operation and appearance of the dishwasher, the cabinet opening should be square and have dimensions as shown in Figure 4.

Figure 5.

CAUTION: To protect against possible rupture of the fill valve, water lines leading to the dishwasher, as well as water lines in the dishwasher MUST be protected against freezing. If the valve or water line freezes, flooding may occur. Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty.

Preparing

the Location
Openings for electrical, water and drain lines must be installed in the marked area as shown in Figures 6 and 7 to avoid interference with the dishwasher frame or other components.

Inspecting the Dishwasher After unpacking the dishwasher and prior to installation thoroughly inspect the dishwasher for possible freight or cosmetic damage. Report any damage immediately. Cosmetic damage must be reported within 5 days of installation.
Mounting bracket bent lot mounting to side of cabinet
Placing the Dishwasher The profile strips on the sides of the dishwasher allow the dishwasher to fit into a cabinet opening with a width of 23-5/8" (600 ram) to 24" (610 mm). Before sliding the dishwasher into the cabinet opening: I. Determine how the mounting brackets will be placed. The brackets may be placed so as to fasten to the underside of the counter top, in Figure 8, or, the brackets may be bent and set to fasten to the side of the cabinet opening as, Figure 9. The dishwasher should be mounted to the side of the cabinet if there is a granite, marble or other hard natural surface counter top that could be damaged by drilling. Once decided, set the mounting brackets before sliding the dishwasher into place, see Figure 10.

Figure 9.

Once slid into place make final leveling adjustments as shown in Figure 1 I. Then to maintain the dishwasher position and alignment, drive 2 wood screws through the holes in the mounting flanges that had been placed at each of the front comers, as shown in Figures 8 and 9. Once the dishwasher has been leveled and secured in
place proceed to the connection of the drain hose, hot water supply line and electrical connections as described in the following sections. Be sure to follow your national and local codes at all times.
Figure 8. 2. Straighten the hot water supply line and the electrical cable so that it can be easily pulled through the channel imder the dishwasher. See Figure 10. 3. Guide the drain hose carefully as the dishwasher is slid into the cabinet opening so that there are no kinks in the hose once the dishwasher is in place. 4. All necessary tinal leveling and alignment adjustments can be made after sliding the dishwasher into the cabinet opening. It is however recommended that the adjustments be made before sliding the dishwasher into opening and then any final line adjustments made after the dishwasher is in place. IMPORTANT If you wish to change the front panel of the dishwasher this must be done before sliding the dishwasher into place. See section in this manual titled Accessory Panel Installation, SHU Models. *Note: Additional accessory door panels can not be used with SHU 9900 models.
Drain Hose Use the hose clamp and rubber connection hose, item "T" from accessory parts (see figure 2) to connect the drain hose to the sink, disposer or air gap.

Connecting

the Hot Water

Supply Line

The hot water supply line should be flushed to clear any foreign matefiai BEFORE connecting the dishwasher. Make sure there are no sharp bends or kinks which might restrict water flow.
IMPORTANT If no air gap is used and the drain line is run into a sink or disposer, the drain line must be elevated to a point higher than the highest water level of the sink to prevent back siphoning into the dishwasher.
If connection to an air gap is required by local code, air gap kits are available from local plumbing sources. Install the air gap according to the manufacturer's instructions. Figure 15. Airgap Rubber connector

Entry must be

(" Apply Teflon tape or other pipe sealant to 90 elbow fitting and connect directly to water inlet valve. Attach other end of fitting to your water supply line. When connecting threaded pipe use pipe thread compound or Teflon tape to seal the connection. Turn on the water supply to check for leaks after making connections. If using a solder joint instead of a compression fitting be sure to make all solder connections before connecting the water line to the dishwasher. Do not solder within 6 inches (152.4 mm) of the dishwasher's inlet valve. Temperatures required for soldering will damage the valve.

Figure ! 4.

CAUTION Failure to provide the proper drain connection height, 20" (508mm) above floor level with high loop or air gap, will result in improper draining of the dishwasher. Improper draining may cause damage to the dishwasher.
Connecting the Electrical Supply The electrical supply must be 120 volt, 60 Hz, 12 ampere, properly grounded. Connect with copper wire only.

Grounding

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal permanent wiring system; or an equipment grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher. The dishwasher must be properly grounded before operating. Make sure that the dishwasher is connected to a suitable ground in compliance with the NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, in the United States, or the CANADIAN ELECTRIC CODE C22. l-latest edition, in Canada well as any provincial/state that apply. or municipal

models of the integrated series (SHI series), have a control panel that is 5-5/16" (135 ram) tall. The black and white models come with a standard extension piece, dimension "A" in figure 18 and table 1, below. The stainless steel model comes with two extension pieces, referred to as the standard and long extension piece in 1hble 1: the standard piece is used for drawer heights up to 6" (152ram); the long extension piece is used for drawer heights greater than 6" (152ram) but 6-7/16" (164ram) or less. These stainless steel extension pieces are not installed in the control panel. Rather the stainless steel models ship the two extension pieces loose and must be inserted as shown in pictogram 5 on the template sheet. The purpose of the extension piece is to allow the increase of the control panel height to try to match the horizontal drawer line of the cabinets. If your drawers are taller than the "C'" dimension shown on Table 1 it is recommended that the extension either be slid in as far

After completing wiring and testing, be sure that wires are pressed back into the terminal box and then securely fasten the terminal box cover/toe panel in place using screws from accessory package. See Figures 2 and 17.

If you have an SHV model, a fully integrated model, you will have additional mounting hardware and a folded template sheet with installation instructions comprised of pictograms. Refer to the folded template sheet for information on how to mount the panel. Please note that one side of the template shows how to mount a one piece panel and the other side of the template shows how to mount a two piece panel. Be sure of what type installation you want before proceeding with the installation. Refer to Figure 19 and Table 2 for guidelines door panel selections. on custom
