Before you start...
Proper installation is your
responsibility. Make sure you
have everything necessary for
correct installation. It is the
personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to
contact a qualified installer to assure
that electrical and plumbing
installation meet national and local
codes and ordinances•
Check location where dishwasher
will be installed• The location should
provide:
• Easy access to water, electricity
and drainage.
• Convenient loading -- the best
position is left or right of kitchen
sink.
• Opening that is square for proper
dishwasher operation and
appearance•
• Cabinet front that is perpendicular
to floor.
• Protection against freezing to
prevent the water inlet valve,
water lines to dishwasher, water
lines in dishwasher, and drain from
rupturing. (Ruptures from freezing
are not covered by the warranty.)
1/4" minimum clearance between
motor and flooring to prevent
motor overheating.

Product Damage
Protect dishwasher and water
lines leading to dishwasher
against freezing.
Failure to do so could
cause inlet valve, water lines
leading to dishwasher, water
lines in dishwasher and drain
to rupture.
Such ruptures are not
covered by the warranty.
For installations where the
dishwasher will be left unused and
subjected to freezing temperatures,
it must be prepared as outlined in
your Use and Care Guide.

components must not contact
any plumbing material or drain
hose.
• Electrical wiring, water supply
line and drain line must not
contact any exposed terminals
of dishwasher wiring.
• Cabinet opening must
completely enclose sides, top
and back of dishwasher. A
side panel and wood top are
available from your
KitchenAId dealer to install
your dishwasher at the end of
a cabinet.
Failure to follow these
Instructions
may result in
personal injury from exposed
wiring.

Electrical
requirements
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Electrical ground is required
on this appliance.
• Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding
conductor can result in
electrical shock.
• Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt
as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
• Disconnect power to the
junction box.
• This appliance must be
connected to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring
system, or a grounding
connector should be
connected to the grounding
terminal or wire lead on
the appliance.
• Do Not have a fuse in
the neutral or grounding
circuit. This could result
in electrical shock.
• Do Not use an extension
cord with this appliance.
Such use may result in a fire,
electrical shock or other
personal injury.
Failure to do so could result in
serious injury or death.

A conduit connector must be
installed at junction box. Wire sizes
(COPPER WIRE ONLY) must
conform with the rating of the
dishwasher.
Alternate grounding
method
If the recommended grounding
method is impossible -- connect a
separate, green grounding wire (No.
16 minimum) from grounding
connection screw located inside the
terminal box to a grounded, cold
water pipe*. See Figure 3.

Figure 4

*Grounded,
cold water pipe must have metal
continuity to electrical ground and not be
interrupted by plastic, rubber or other
insulating connectors such as hoses, fittings,
washers or gaskets (Including water meter or
pump). Any_nsulating,
electrical connector
should be jumped with a length of No. 4
copper wire securely clamped to bare metal at
both ends as shown in Figure 4.

Flexible cord connection
A single phase, 115-volt, 60 Hz, AC
only, 15 or 20 ampere, fused
electrical supply is required. Timedelay fuse or circuit breaker
is recommended. It is recommended
that a separate circuit serving only
this appliance be provided.
It is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to contact
a qualified electrician to assure that
the electrical installation is adequate
and is in conformance with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70-latest edition and local
codes and ordinances.
The dishwasher can be connected
with flexible armored or non-metallic
sheathed copper cable (with
grounding wire).

Local codes may permit the use of a
U.L.-listed, flexible, three-conductor
cord terminated with a three-prong,
grounding-type plug. It is
recommended that cord kit, Part No.
675456, available from your
KitchenAid dealer or parts supplier,
be used. If the cord kit is not
available locally, the flexible cord
used must be a three-conductor, 16gauge cord that meets the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70latest edition and local codes and
ordinances. The length of the cord
must not exceed six feet. It must be
routed so it does not touch the
dishwasher motor or the lower
portion of the dishwasher tub. A
grommet (Part No. 302797) must
cover the hole cut in a metal cabinet
for the flexible cord. The flexible
cord must be plugged into a mating
three-prong, grounding-type wall

receptacle, grounded in accordance
with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition and
local ordinances. Follow instructions
packaged with the flexible cord.

Water
requirements
The hot water line to the dishwasher
must provide between 20-120 psi
water pressure. The hot water
heater should be set to deliver
120°F (minimum) water temperature
to the dishwasher (except as noted
in your Use and Care Guide) for best
results.
Use 1/2" O.D. copper tubing or 3/8"
galvanized pipe inlet line.
Dishwasher inlet valve has 3/8"
internal pipe thread.

Drain
requirements
Product Damage
• The drain line connection to
the house plumbing must be
a minimum of 20" above the
floor. A lower drain
connection may result in
siphoning.
• If the drain is routed to a
connection point less than 20"
above the floor, the drain line
must form a loop 20" above
the floor. See Figure 5,
Page 4.
• Do Not kink hose and copper
tubing.
Failure to provide either a 20"
minimum connection height or
a 20" high loop will result in
improper drainage and may
cause product damage.
The drain hose should be 9/16"
minimum ID flexible hose or
5/8" OD copper tubing. A minimum
of 22" flexible drain hose or a 12"
length of copper drain line with 12"
length of flexible hose added is
needed. Flexible hose, resistant to
heat and detergent, can be found
at plumbing, hardware or automotive
supply stores. Do Not use a drain
line or fittings less than 1/2" ID.
If drain line Is copper, clamp a 12"
length of 9/16" ID flexible, heat and
detergent resistant hose to end of
copper drain line to connect to
dishwasher valve.

Custom wood or other materials
should be 1/4" thick. Thinner
materials will need to have a spacer
panel installed behind custom
panel. If custom panel is more than
1/4" thick, the outer edge
will need to be routed as shown.
Custom wood panels need a
waterproof protective finish applied
to all sides and edges of panel.

After custom panels are installed,
check the door tension. The door
should be counterbalanced so it
doesn't fall open or close when
opened. If the door closes from an
open position, adjust the door-spring
