DRAIN IF PLUG IS LEFT IN
PLACE.
Tip: Avoid unnecessary service call charges for a
no drain complaint.
Make sure excess drain hose has been pulled through
the cabinet opening. This will prevent excess hose
in the dishwasher cavity from becoming kinked or

STEP 9 INSTALL MOUNTING
BRACKETS
You will need the mounting brackets and 4 of the
Phillips-Head screws set aside in the PREPARATION
section.
You must install the mounting brackets onto the
dishwasher tub frame top OR sides prior to sliding
the dishwasher into place under the countertop.
The mounting brackets have several available
attachment positions to accommodate different
cabinet constructions.
TOP MOUNTING OPTION
Install mounting brackets on top if the underside
of countertop is wood or wood-like material that
accepts screws:
IMPORTANT - After installing brackets and before
closing dishwasher door, adjust the brackets by bending
them up as needed, so that they do not contact the top
of dishwasher door and cause damage.
