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, pull out the machine
and adjust the tension of the
door springs on the sides of
the machine by moving
them one hole
farther back or by
twisting the spring
to make it shorter.
Installing The Custom Panel – 6-Inch Toe Kick
Before fitting the custom panel, the dishwasher must be installed
underneath the cabinet. After you’ve made the required measurements,
pull the machine out again to install the panel.
Refer to the illustration at right for instruction references.
1. Fit the handle (A) onto the panel according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. (NOTE: A handle should be used rather than a knob,
because a knob does not provide enough grip.)
IMPORTANT! The custom panel must not obstruct the
fan exhaust vent; otherwise, moisture from the vent
could eventually damage the cabinet and create
drying problems.
2. The two short screws (B) go into the back of the panel, 15-1/16"
(382 mm) from the upper edge of the panel and 10-7/8" (266 mm)
from the center of the panel. Insert the short screws into the panel,
leaving 1/8" (3 mm) of space between the screw head and the panel.
3. Hook the panel screws (D) into the keyholes (C) on the dishwasher door.
4. Slide the panel to the left until it is centered in the opening, and secure the screws.
5. Open the door and use the four screws (D) supplied to secure the panel to the door.
NOTE: If the door panel weighs more than 18 pounds, you may need to order the
heavy-duty door springs. (See page 7.)
