Bosch she42l12uc User Manual

If the dishwasher is to drain either directly into the 

household drain plumbing or through an air gap, install a 
y-branch tailpiece under the sink as shown in 

Figure 7.  

 
Installing an Air Gap

If local ordinances require an air gap, as shown in 

Figure 8, install it according to the manufacturer’s  
instructions.  

Make sure to remove the disposer’s dishwasher drain 

connection plug before connecting the dishwasher drain 
hose. See 

Figure 9.

Dishwasher preparation involves four tasks:

•  Installing the Mounting Brackets

•  Removing the Toe Panel

•  Installing the 90° elbow fitting

•  Junction Box Preparation

The dishwasher can be secured into its enclosure in two 
ways: 

1   Top Mount is used for countertops made of wood 

or other materials that can easily drilled. Orient the 

mounting  brackets as shown in 

Figure 10, and 

position the two small tabs on the mounting brackets 

over the two slots on the dishwasher’s front corners. 

Push the mounting brackets down firmly to insert the 

tabs into the slots.

2  Side Mount is used for countertops made of marble, 

granite, or other very hard materials that cannot be 

easily drilled. Bend the mounting brackets  along 

the small holes and in the same direction as the 

two small tabs. Orient the mounting brackets as 

shown in 

Figure 11, and position the two small 

tabs on the mounting brackets over the two slots on 

the dishwasher’s front corners. Push the mounting 

brackets down firmly to insert the tabs into the slots.
