ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (continued)

WARNING

Fire Hazard

To avoid a fire hazard, make sure there are no

loose electrical connections. Make sure all

electrical connections are properly made.

• Do not pre-twist the wires before connecting them

with wire nuts.

• Extend the dishwasher's stranded wires 1/8" (3mm)

beyond the power supply cable's solid wires, as

shown in Figure 30.

5 Using the supplied wire nuts, connect the electrical

supply wires to the dishwasher's wires, black to black,

white to white, and green or bare. Make certain that

the insulated wires show no bare wire from the

bottoms of the wire nuts. Gently tug the wires to make

certain they are securely connected.

6 Press the wires into the junction box as shown in

Figure 31. Make certain that the wire nuts do not

loosen.

7 Place the cover on the junction box and secure it to

the junction box with the supplied screw.

DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT (only on SHI

and SHV models with custom door panels)

After the dishwasher and custom door panel are installed,

open and close the door several times to make sure that

it does so with ease. If the door falls open too quickly,

the spring tension needs to be adjusted.

To Adjust the Spring Tension:

1 Obtain the provided Spring Tension Screws from the

SHI/SHV Door Panel Installation Kit.

2 Insert the screws as shown in Figure 32. Turning the

screw clockwise increases the spring tension.

Regular Toe Panel Installation

Use the toe panel screws from the Dishwasher Installa-

tion Kit and a T-20 screwdriver to install the toe panel as

shown in Figure 33.
