IMPORTANT INFORMATION Revised Dishwasher Installation Instructions To obtain a revised copy of the entire Dishwasher Users Manual, go to www.eurotechappliances.com.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Read these instructions carefully and completely before you install the machine. The installation should be carried out by a qualified person who is familiar with all local codes and ordinances for electrical and plumbing connections. If a dishwasher is being installed in this area for the first time, most of the cabinet work, plumbing, and electrical has to be done before you move the machine into place.
CABINET OPENING DIMENSIONS After determining where the water supply line will enter under the sink, drill a 1-1/2" (38 mm) access hole. The water line inlet valve is on the right rear of the machine. 32" to 35" 813 to 890 mm The electrical and water supplies should enter through the area indicated by the shading on the illustration at right.
ADJUSTING THE LEVELING LEGS Before you slide the unit under the cabinet, you should adjust the levelling legs to within 1/8” of the opening height. The four leveling legs should be adjusted by unscrewing the leg out to the length required. The final height adjustment should be made after the unit is in place under the cabinet. When the feet are properly adjusted, tighten the locking nuts to the base pan. (The machine may have an inclination of 2° maximum without affecting its performance.
FASTENING THE DISHWASHER TO THE CABINET It’s necessary to fasten the dishwasher to the cabinet so it won’t tilt when the door is opened or if something heavy is placed on the door. Use only the screws provided with the machine. The dishwasher can be fastened to the cabinet on the top, at the sides, or both, depending on the type of installation. STANDARD CABINET INSTALLATIONS For a standard cabinet installation, you should mount the dishwasher at the top. To do this, follow the instructions below: 1.
