Avoid Electrical Shock Hazard
Do not work on an energized circuit. Doing so could resul
in serious injury or death. Only qualified electricians
should perform electrical work. Do not attempt any work
on the dishwasher electric supply circuit until you are
certain the circuit is de-energized.
Electrical Supply
The customer has the responsibility of ensuring that the
dishwasher electrical installation is in compliance with all
national and local electrical codes and ordinances. The
dishwasher is designed for an electrical supply of 1 20V,
60 Hz, AC, connected to a dishwasher-dedicated, properly
grounded electrical circuit with a fuse or breaker rated for
15 amps. Electrical supply conductors shall be a minimum
#14 AWG
copper wire rated at 75°C (167°F) or higher.
Grounding Instructions
The dishwasher must be properly grounded before
operating. This appliance must be connected to a grounded
metal permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on
the dishwasher. Make sure that the dishwasher is connected
to a suitable ground in compliance with all local codes
or, in the absence of a local code, with the NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States or the CANADIAN
ELECTRIC CODE C22.1-latest edition in Canada as well as
any provincial/state or municipal or local codes that apply.

dedicated receptacle must be mounted in an accessible
cabinet adjacent to the dishwasher (do not mount the

the cabinet in order to pass the junction box through.
If
the opening is made through wood, sand it smooth. If the
opening is made through metal, use the included protective
grommet or other approved method to protect wiring from
damage.
