Preparing Cabinet Opening

This dishwasher is designed to fit a standard dishwasher opening. An opening may be needed on both sides to route plumbing and electrical connections.

  • To ensure proper drainage, install the dishwasher no more than 12 ft. (3.65 m) from the sink.

  • The location must have sufficient space for the dishwasher door to open easily and provide at least 0.1” (2 mm) between the dishwasher and the cabinet sides.

  • If installing the dishwasher in a corner, leave a minimum of 2” (50 mm) between the dishwasher and the adjacent wall.

  • The adjacent wall must be free of obstructions.

  • For flush installations only, you may remove the cabinet brace a inside the cabinet.
