Important Safety Instructions  
General Safety Precautions  
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your appliance, follow basic safety  
precautions, including the following:  
WARNING  
WARNING  
1. Do not install or operate this dishwasher if it has  
been damaged, dropped, has damaged electrical  
conduit or wires or is not working properly. If the  
product is damaged when received, immediately  
contact the dealer or builder.  
13. Do not operate the dishwasher without the door  
completely closed and the toe kick panel in place.  
14. Store all detergents and rinse aids out of the reach  
of children.  
15. During loading, insert all sharp or pointed objects  
with the handles up. Locate these items where they  
will not damage the door seal or cause personal  
injury.  
2. Use this dishwasher only for its intended purpose  
as outlined in the use and care manual. It is not  
intended for commercial use. Read the use and  
care manual completely before use.  
16. Do not tamper with the controls.  
3. Keep all packaging materials away from children.  
Plastic bags can cause suffocation.  
17. Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be  
produced in a hot water system that has not been  
used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is  
explosive. If the hot water system has not been  
used for a period of time, turn on all hot water  
faucets and let the water flow for several minutes  
to release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Do not  
smoke or use an open flame during this process.  
4. To avoid electric shock, this dishwasher must be  
installed and grounded by a qualified installer in  
a completely enclosed cabinet according to these  
installation instructions.  
5. All installation work, plumbing connections and  
electrical wiring must be performed in accordance  
with all applicable codes and standards.  
18. To prevent child entrapment, always remove the  
door from an old dishwasher when removing it from  
service.  
6. Install or locate this appliance only in accordance  
with these installation instructions.  
7. The installer must show the customer the location  
of the fuse box or circuit breaker panel so that the  
customer knows where and how to turn the power  
off.  
19. To prevent household mold and mildew damage,  
periodically check the inlet and drain hoses for  
leaks.  
20. If the dishwasher outlet is connected to a garbage  
disposal, make sure the disposal is completely  
empty before running the dishwasher.  
8. Before installing or servicing the dishwasher, switch  
power off at the fuse box or circuit breaker panel  
and lock the electrical panel door to prevent power  
from being switched on accidentally. When the  
circuit breaker panel cannot be locked, securely  
fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag,  
to the electrical panel.  
21. To avoid damage to the racks, do not let sharp  
edges come into contact with them.  
22. This appliance is designed for installation by more  
than one person. To avoid personal injury, do not  
attempt to move or lift the dishwasher without  
assistance.  
9. Do not tamper with the controls.  
10. Do not leave children alone or unattended in the  
area where the dishwasher is in use. Never allow  
children to sit or stand on an appliance. Do not let  
children play with this appliance.  
23. To prevent personal injury and damage to the unit  
due to it tipping over, do not push down on the door  
anytime it is open. To reduce the chance of tipping,  
attach the anti-tip brackets to the cabinet before  
operation.  
11. Never allow anyone, including children, to sit or  
stand on any part of the dishwasher. Stepping  
or sitting on any part of it may result in tipping,  
damage and serious injury.  
12. Many surfaces within the dishwasher achieve high  
temperatures. Do not touch interior surfaces or  
items inside the dishwasher during or immediately  
after use. Exercise caution when opening the door.  
Let hot air and steam escape before looking or  
reaching inside.

Preparing for Installation  
Plumbing Preparation  
Power Supply Preparation  
The water pressure must be between 20 and 120 psi  
(138-827 kPa). The household hot water heater should  
supply a minimum of 120°F water to the dishwasher  
location for best results.  
WARNING  
The electrical power supply for the dishwasher must be  
installed only by a licensed electrician as specified below.  
It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the electrical  
connection of this appliance is performed by a licensed  
electrician.  
Install a water supply valve for the hot water supply  
line where it is easily accessible after the dishwasher  
is installed. The dishwasher is shipped with a 3/8 male  
compression fitting to facilitate installation.  
Electrical Specifications  
The electrical installation, including minimum supply  
wire size and grounding, must be in accordance with the  
National Electric code ANSI/NFPA* (or latest revision) and  
local codes and ordinances.  
*A copy of this standard may be obtained from:  
National Fire Protection Association  
1 Batterymarch Park  
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269-9101  
Hot Water  
Inlet  
Power supply requirements:  
The dishwasher requires a grounded, dedicated 120  
Vac, 60 Hz circuit protected by a 15 A circuit breaker or  
time delay fuse installed by a licensed electrician.  
BACK OF DISHWASHER  
A flexible braided fill hose is highly recommended.  
Connect it to the unit just prior to installation into the  
cabinet.  
It must be located to the right or left of the cut-out, in an  
adjacent cabinet, so that power can be disconnected  
without removing the dishwasher.  
If copper tubing is present from a prior installation,  
remove it and replace it with a flexible braided hose.  
The ground terminal (or lead) on the appliance must be  
connected to a grounded, metallic, permanent wiring  
system or grounding conductor installed by a licensed  
electrician.  
Preparing the Drain  
Do not ground the appliance or appliance wiring to a  
gas pipeline or to the neutral (white) power supply wire.  
IMPORtANt: A drain line hose is supplied with the product.  
Should a longer drain hose be required, use a hose  
approved for detergents and high temperature water. The  
drain hose supplied with the dishwasher meets an AHAM  
DW-1 test standard. Longer drain hoses should not be  
longer than 12 ft. in length.  
Do not install a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.  
the dishwasher can be connected to:  
A UL/CSA approved, grounded, three-prong receptacle (if  
local code permits). This method is the easiest to install.  
You must install an air gap in the drain if the drain hose  
is connected to household plumbing lower than 20 in.  
(50.8 cm) from the floor or if required by local codes.  
Plan for the air gap in the sink or countertop area  
adjacent to the dishwasher. A section of drain hose (not  
provided) needs to be installed from the air gap to the  
disposal or waste tee.  
OR  
Directly to the house wiring. Hard-wire the dishwasher  
according to local code directly to a three wire grounded,  
single phase connection in a junction box.  
NOtE: In either case, be sure the power cable or wire is  
long enough to remain connected when the appliance is  
removed from the cut-out for service.  
If an air gap is not required, the drain hose must be  
installed to an inlet or waste tee above the drain trap in  
the household plumbing.  
If the electrical service does not meet the  
specifications above:  
The drain hose supplied with the dishwasher should be  
connected to a minimum 1/2 in. I.D. drain connection.  
Have a licensed electrician prepare the electrical  
receptacle or junction box for final connection inside the  
adjacent cabinet according to the specifications above.  
If the drain is connected to a disposal, see the disposal  
manufacturer’s installation instructions for correct drain  
hose mounting techniques.

Installation Instructions  
Close and latch the door.  
Verifying Proper Operation  
You should hear the dishwasher drain and then begin  
to fill with water. Wait approximately two (2) minutes,  
then carefully open the door to verify water is filling the  
dishwasher tank. If there is water present, close the  
door and continue the process. Should the water not  
fill the tank or the pump is not running, immediately  
push the StARt/StOP button to stop the dishwasher.  
Verify that the water supply valve is turned on, power is  
connected, and that main power supply is on.  
WARNING  
To ensure a safe and proper installation, the following  
checklist should be completed by the installer to  
ensure that no part of the installation has been  
overlooked and the unit is working properly.  
Proper installation is the responsibility of the  
homeowner. The importance of proper installation of  
your Dacor dishwasher cannot be overemphasized.  
Check for leaks under the dishwasher. If any leaks  
are found, immediately turn off the main power supply,  
tighten all connections and restore the power.  
Pre-verification Check List  
Confirm that the main power supply (at the circuit  
breaker panel or fuse box) is off.  
Check for leaks around the door. A leak around the  
door could be caused by the dishwasher door rubbing  
or hitting against adjacent cabinets. Reposition the  
dishwasher if necessary.  
Remove all packing material from inside the  
dishwasher.  
Check the orientation of the bottom door seal. The seal  
“bulb” should be facing into the tank. If it is oriented  
towards the exterior of the door, open the dishwasher  
door fully and orientate the door seal so that it is facing  
into the tank.  
The dishwasher will drain after the first fill. Check the  
drain line for leaks. If leaks are found, turn off the  
power supply immediately, tighten all connections and  
restore the power.  
Open the dishwasher door and verify that most of the  
water has drained. If not, verify that the disposer plug  
has been removed and/or the air gap is not plugged.  
Familiarize yourself with operation of the dishwasher by  
reading the use & care manual.  
Remove any protective film, if present from the control  
panel, door panel, etc.  
Run the dishwasher through another fill and drain  
cycle. Verify that there are no leaks.  
Verify that all wiring is secure and is not being pinched  
or in contact with door springs or any other dishwasher  
components.  
If the dishwasher does not operate correctly, see the  
instructions below.  
If the fill, wash and drain cycles operate properly,  
reinstall the toe kick. Adjust it so that the bottom of the  
chassis and the legs below the door are completely  
covered. If the toe kick does not cover the chassis and  
legs completely, install the included extended toe kick.  
Verify that the dishwasher is level by pulling the  
lower rack half way out. Let go of the rack and make  
sure it does not roll in or out. If it does, re-level the  
dishwasher.  
Add two quarts of water to the bottom of the  
dishwasher to lubricate the pump seal.  
If the dishwasher fails to operate properly:  
Verify that power is supplied to the dishwasher.  
Turn on the water supply and check for plumbing leaks.  
Tighten connections if necessary.  
Check the electrical connections to ensure that the  
installation has been completed correctly.  
For additional start up or drain problems check  
all installation steps to verify they are correct and  
complete.  
Verify that the door springs do not come in contact with  
any dishwasher components.  
Verify the hot water temperature by turning on the  
hot water faucet at the sink. The water going to the  
dishwasher must be between 120ºF and 150ºF.  
Repeat the above test.  
If the appliance still does not work, contact the Dacor  
Customer Service Team at (800) 793-0093.
