Construct a solid dishwasher floor of 3/8" min. thick plywood supported
by 2 x 4 or 2 x 2 runners on all sides.

Cut the opening in a cabinet to the dimensions shown.
■ Frame overlap will conceal cut edges on all sides of the opening.
If installed above or below another cabinet door or surface, allow at least 3-1/4" of clearance above and below the
opening. This separation will provide clearance for the trim kit overhang and installation of mounting screws.

Cabinet Preparation and Wire Routing
■ The power supply receptacle for the appliance should be installed in a cabinet or on a wall adjacent to the built-in
space in which the appliance is to be installed.
■ There should be an opening through the partition that is large enough for the attached plug to pass through. The
longest dimension of the opening should not be larger than 1-1/2".
■ The edges of the opening should be smooth and rounded if the partition is wood. If the cabinet wall is metal, the
hole must be covered with a bushing. You can find this bushing at your local hardware or home improvement store.
■ Care should be exercised when the appliance is installed or removed, to reduce the likelihood of damage to the
power supply cord.
