IMPORTANT: For proper operation and appearance of unit,
cabinet opening should have dimensions as shown in Figure 2.
If unit is to be placed in a corner, there must be at least a 2-inch
side clearance to open door.
2. Floor should be flat and free of any obstruction.
IMPORTANT: Drain, water, and electrical lines should be
roughed-in before going any further.
Electric Shock Hazard
Electrical, water, and drain lines must be confined
to shaded areas in Figure 2.
Electric conductors, water, and drain could be
damaged.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
fire or electric shock.
NOTE: If dishwasher is installed at end of a cabinet, sides and
back must be fully enclosed.
NOTE: Cabinet Seal Kit (Kit # 154662101). This kit provides a
seal between the unit and cabinets once installation is
complete. (The Installation Instructions are located in the Kit)
Weight
Keep children away from the front of the dishwasher so
that they are not accidentally hit by the door during
loading or unloading or if door should unexpectedly
open. The weight of the door can cause injury.
Locating the Connections
1. Review dimensions in Figure 2 to locate dishwasher's drain,
water, and electrical connections.
2. All utilities must be routed in shaded area in the Figure 2.
IMPORTANT: Disconnect power before starting installation.
Note: Locate the electrical supply and dishwasher's electrical
junction box on right underside of unit behind kickplate
assembly. See Figure 4. Determine where you will connect
to hot water supply. Review Figure 4 and note the location of
water inlet valve. Determine where you will connect the drain
hose.
3. Cut access holes for the Electrical, Water and Drain hoses in the
shaded areas as shown in Figure 2.
4. The dishwasher operates on a 120 volt, 60 Hz electrical supply.
Provide a separate circuit with a fuse or circuit breaker rated for
at least 15 amps (20 amps if connected with disposer) but not
more than 20 amps.
5. Pull electrical cable through hole into installation area.
6. Be sure water inlet valve is protected from freezing. Ifvalve
freezes and ruptures, flooding may occur.
7. Determine amount of tubing needed to connect hot water supply
to the unit's water inlet valve. Extra hose length is necessary.
High-pressure and high-temperature Stainless Flexible hose with
a minimum inner diameter of V4"may be used. A shut-off valve
installed outside dishwasher cabinet is best.
8. Route water supply line into installation area.
9. Stand dishwasher back upright for further installation.
IMPORTANT: Incoming hot water temperature should be at
least 120°F (49°C). Water pressure should be between
20-90 psi.

If levelers need to be removed, make sure that the floor is free of all
obstructions.
Carefully place dishwasher inside cabinet area such that is
centered in opening. Use caution when moving dishwasher to
prevent damage to cabinet, dishwasher and floor.
Front of door needs to be even with the front of adjoining cabinets.
Front levelers should allow 5/16" below underside of countertop
to top of console.
Check that dishwasher is level from side to side by placing a level
against the top front section of the tub. See Figure 5a.
Figure 5a
10. Check that the dishwasher is level from front to back by taking
out the lower rack, place level on the lower rack wheel support at
the bottom of the tub. See Figure 5b.
11. Adjust levelers up or down until dishwasher is level.

Be sure the dishwasher is placed where the water inlet
valve will be kept from freezing. If the valve freezes, it may
rupture and flooding may occur.
Water Line
1. Flush water line before connecting it to water inlet valve to
prevent early clogging of filter screen. Place a bunched towel
over end of line to prevent splashing. Open water supply valve for

Grounding Instructions:
The dishwasher 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 appliance's equipment grounding terminal
or lead. It is the consumer's responsibility to contact a
qualified installer to make sure the electrical installation
conforms with the National Electrical Code and local codes
and ordinances.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the power supply until the
appliance is permanently grounded.
All wiring connections must be enclosed in the junction box.
This unit has copper lead wires.
Joining aluminum building wire to stranded copper wire
should be done by a qualified electrician using materials
recognized by UL and local codes.
Do not use an extension cord. Such use can result in fire,
electrical shock, or other personal injury.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in death or
serious injury.
1. Review Figures 7, 8 and 9 to see the different ways to connect
dishwasher to drain system. Choose method that best suits
your need.

,If you connect to a sink drain, entry will need to be above trap.
A "Y" branch tailpiece and connector kit, not included, will make
this method easier and includes all needed fittings and
instructions. See Figure 7.
Air Gap
3. If you connect to a sink trap, local codes may require you to
install an air gap kit, (not included). The drain hose will be routed
from dishwasher to air gap inlet as shown in Figure 8. An air
gap kit is available from a plumbing supply store. (If the drain
hose is installed through the floor, an air gap is necessary).
4. If you connect to a disposer, the large end of drain hose will fit.
Figure 9(a). The knock out plug must be removed from
inside disposer inlet before making the final fit to drain
hose. See Figure 9(b).

clamp. IMPORTANT: Be careful not to overtighten clamp or
you may damage end of hose. Do not connect hose to
horizontal pipe between sink drain and disposer.
Be sure unit does not rest on drain hose. It should be free of
electrical components and door springs. Do not cut corrugated
drain hose. Pull excess through cabinet and place under sink.
Make sure hose does not come in contact with any sharp edges.
Electric Shock Hazard
Disconnect electrical power at the fuse box
or circuit breaker box before beginning
installation.
Failure to follow this warning could result in
death or serious injury.

Weight
Keep children away from the front of the dishwasher so
that they are not accidentally hit by the door during
loading or unloading or if door should unexpectedly
open. The weight of the door can cause injury.
Screws
To prevent the possibility of damage to dishwasher,
replace factory installed outer door screws with factory
supplied wood panel screws,
The EDW7505HSS & EDW7505HPS can be installed with a
fully integrated, buyer supplied custom door panel.
The custom panel should be 1/2" to 3/4" (19mm) thick.
Items provided with the unit:
Six 1V8"screws for mounting the custom wooden panel to the
dishwasher.
Tools you will need to install the Custom Wood Panel:
# 32 Drill Bit (7/64")
2 # 7 _/2"screws (Optional)
INSTALLING THE CUSTOM PANEL
Refer to the Figure 10 for instruction references.
1. Fit the handle onto the panel according to the manufacturer's
instructions. (NOTE: A handle should be used rather than a
knob. A knob does not provide enough grip.)
2. The two short screws go into the back of the panel 1 417/32" from
the upper edge of the panel and 9/_6"from the edge of the
panel. Insert the short screws into the panel, leaving Vs" of
space between the screw head and the panel.
3. Hook the panel screws into the rectangular openings of the
metal panel on the dishwasher door.
4. Open the door and use the six screws supplied to secure the
panel to the door.
NOTE: The door panel cannot exceed 12 pounds.

ADJUSTING THE DOOR SPRINGS
Before you push the dishwasher into the cabinet opening, test the
door to make sure it stays in place at any angle. If it tends to fall
down, adjust the tension of the door springs on the sides of the
machine by moving them one hole farther back. If the door moves
to close, adjust the tension of the door springs on the side of the
machine by moving them one hole forward.
