STEP 9 SECURING THE DISHWASHER
You must fi x the dishwasher to the countertop or cabinet side walls for additional stability and safety.
1. If the countertop is made of wood or the material will not be damaged by drilling, follow
the instructions in 2-1 below.
If the countertop is made of granite, marble, or any other material that can be damaged
by drilling, follow the instructions in 2-2 below.
2-1. If the installation brackets on the front of the dishwasher extend cut them down using a
nipper as shown in Figure 8 on the next page.
Put a large towel into the bottom of the dishwasher to prevent wood shavings or a
dropped screw from falling into the dishwasher.
Carefully drill screw holes into the counter top bottom by passing the drill bit through a
screw hole in each bracket, and then drilling into the counter top bottom beneath.
Make sure the hole you drill is smaller than the diameter of the screw.
Insert the provided screws into the brackets, and then tighten to secure the dishwasher to
the counter top.
2-2. Put a large towel into the bottom of the dishwasher to prevent wood shavings or a
dropped screw from falling into the dishwasher. Remove the tub spacer caps with the tip
of a screwdriver. The caps are just inside the tub near the top of the tub on both sides
(Figure 9 on the next page).
Drill a hole into the sides of the kitchen cabinet on both sides by carefully passing a drill
bit through the screw holes exposed by the removal of the spacer caps, and then drilling
into the cabinet side beneath.
Make sure the hole you drill is smaller than the diameter of the screw.
Also make sure the drill bit does not strike the sides of the spacer cap holes. Insert the
provided screws into the holes, and then tighten to secure the dishwasher to the cabinet.
Make sure the tub is not distorted by pressure from the screws.
If the tub is distorted, loosen the screws a little.
Replace the tub spacer caps.
• The screws or tub spacer cap may fall into the dishwasher while you are working
with the door open. Cover the interior of the dishwasher with a towel to prevent
any screws from falling into the dishwasher. If any foreign items such as a screw
get into the dishwasher, it may cause noise, an abnormal operation, damage, or a
malfunction.
• Use a magnetic screwdriver to help prevent screws from falling into the dishwasher.
• If a foreign item such as a screw gets into the dishwasher and you are unable to
remove it, the dishwasher needs to be disassembled. Contact a qualifi ed service
technician for this.
