FINAL POSITION
• Pushthe dishwasher the rest of the wag into the cabinet.
• Pushthe sides with your hands. Do not push the dishwasher
with your knee, as this will damage the door.
Check that the tub insulation blanket does not get
"bunched up" or interfere with the springs as you slide it
into the cabinet.
Center the dishwasher in the opening.

Carefully open and close the door to ensure that the door
panel does not catch or rub on the cabinet frame. Refer

does not contact the cabinet frame.
Special Considerations for Positioning
Top-Mount Control Models
The controls on these models are designed to be hidden by
your countertop. Align the dishwasher as shown in Figure
V.Leave a 1/2" minimum gap between the underside of the
countertop and the top of the dishwasher door as shown in
Figure W.
Use the leveling legs to increase or decrease the amount
of gap between the controls and the countertop.
Forflush installations of the custom panel models, it may
be necessary to cut off the back panel of the tub insulation
blanket so that the dishwasher door panel can be aligned with
the kitchen cabinet panels.
