For models equipped with power cord: Do not modify the plug 
provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet, have a 
proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.
Cabinet Preparation & Wire Routing
• The wiring may enter the opening from either side, rear or the 
floor within the shaded area illustrated above in Figure E and 
defined in Figure A.
• Cut a 1-1/2" maximum diameter hole to admit the electrical 
cable. Edges of hole should be smooth and rounded. 
Permanent wiring connections may pass through the same 
hole as the drain hose and hot water line, if convenient. If 
cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a 
bushing.  
NOTE: Power cords with plug must pass through a separate 
hole. 
Electrical Connection to Dishwasher
Electrical connection is on the right front of dishwasher.
• For permanent connections the cable must be routed as 
shown in Figure E. Cable must extend a minimum of 24" from 
the rear wall.
• For power cord connections, install a 3-prong grounding 
type receptacle in the sink cabinet rear wall, 6" min. or 18" 
maximum from the opening, 6" to 18" above the floor. 
• Use the Power Cord Kit for your dishwasher model.

connected to an individual properly grounded branch circuit, 
protected by a 15- or 20-ampere circuit breaker or time-delay 
fuse.

Grounding Instructions–Permanent Connection
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 be 
connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on  
the appliance.
Grounding Instructions–Power Cord Models
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction 
or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock 
by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. 
This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must 
be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and 
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
