Installation Preparation  
DRAIN REQUIREMENTS  
• Follow local codes and ordinances.  
• Do not exceed 10 feet distance to drain.  
• To prevent back flow into the dishwasher, connect  
drain line to an air gap or use a 30” high drain loop,  
depending on local codes.  
Method 1 – Air Gap with Waste Tee or Disposer  
An air gap must be used when the waste tee or disposer  
connection is less than 18” from the floor.  
• Air gap must be used when waste tee or disposer  
connection is less than 18” above the floor to prevent  
siphoning.  
DETERMINE DRAIN METHOD  
The type of drain installation depends on the following  
questions.  
Do local codes or ordinances require an air gap?  
Will waste tee or disposer connection be less than 18”  
above the floor?  
Method 2 – High Drain Loop with Waste Tee or  
Disposer Install waste tee or disposer and air gap according  
to manufacturer’s instructions.  
Will installation have a high drain loop less than 30”  
above the floor?  
If the answer to ANY of these questions is YES, Method 1  
MUST be used.

CABINET PREPARATION  
• Drill a 1-1/2” dia. hole in the cabinet wall within  
the shaded areas shown for the drain hose connec-  
tion. The hole should be smooth with no sharp  
edges.  
An air gap MUST BE USED if the drain hose is con-  
nected to a waste tee or disposer lower than 18” above  
the floor level.  
• Failure to provide the proper drain connection using  
an air gap or a 30” min. high drain loop will result in  
improper draining of the dishwasher which may cause  
damage or poor wash performance.  
PRUDENCE  
Il DOIT Y AVOIR une coupure antirefoulement si le  
tuyau de vidange est branché sur un raccord d’égout ou  
un broyeur d’ordures à moins de 46 cm (18 po) du sol.  
• Si la vidange n’est pas branchée correctement en  
utilisant une coupure antirefoulement ou un boucle  
d’égout d’au moins 76 cm (30 po) de haut,  
l’écoulement de l’eau du lave-vaisselle n’est pas bon,  
ce qui peut causer des dommages ou un mauvais

Electrical Connections to Dishwasher:  
Electrical Requirements  
The dishwasher junction box is located on the right side  
at the front of the dishwasher. The electrical cable must  
extend forward at least 24” to reach the junction box  
when dishwasher is installed.  
• The wiring may enter the opening from either side,  
rear or the floor within the shaded area.  
• Cut a 1-1/2” max. dia. hole to admit the electrical  
cable or use the same hole cut for the drain hose. The  
hole must be free of sharp edges. If the cabinet wall is  
metal, the hole edge must be covered with a bushing.  
• For power cord connections, install a 3-prong ground-  
ing type receptacle in the sink cabinet rear wall, 6"  
min, or 18" max. from the opening, and 6" to 18"  
above the floor.  
• This appliance must be supplied with 120V, 60 Hz., and  
connected to an individual properly grounded branch  
circuit, protected by a 15 or 20 ampere circuit breaker or  
time delay fuse.  
• Wiring must be 2 wire with ground and rated for 75°C  
(176°F).  
• If the electrical supply does not meet the above require-  
ments, call a licensed electrician before proceeding.  
Grounding Instructions–Cable Direct  
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  
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a  
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk  
of electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance  
for electric current. The plug must be plugged into an  
appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in  
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.  
AVERTISSEMENT  
The improper connection of the equip-  
ment-grounding conductor can result in  
a risk of electric shock. Check with a  
qualified electrician or service represen-  
tative if you are in doubt that the appli-  
ance is properly grounded.  
Le mauvais branchement du fil de mise à  
la terre de l’équipement peut causer un  
choc électrique. En cas de doute sur la  
mise à la terre de l’appareil, consulter un  
électricien qualifié ou un représentant  
technique.

STEP 12 PRE-TEST CHECK LIST  
¨ Verify water supply and drain lines are not kinked or in contact  
with other components.  
Installation service calls are not covered by your  
warranty. To avoid unnecessary charges, review  
this list carefully.  
¨ Turn on the sink hot water faucet and verify water temperature.  
Incoming water temperature must be between 120°F and 150°F.  
120°F min. temperature is required for best wash performance.  
¨ Turn on water supply.  
¨ Check to be sure power is OFF.  
¨ Open the door and remove all foam and paper packaging.  
¨ Pull lower rack out, about half way. Check to be sure it does  
not roll back or forwards on the door. If the rack moves,  
adjust leveling legs.  
¨ Open the door. Check to be sure Insulation Board does not  
interfere with door opening.  
CHECK WATER FILL LEVEL  
STEP 13 DISHWASHER WET TEST  
¨ Turn on power supply.  
For best performance, check the water fill level.  
Run through a complete RINSE ONLY cycle to ensure it is emptying  
and filling correctly. For low water pressure situations run the  
RINSE ONLY cycle 3 times. Half-way through the final RINSE ONLY  
cycle, pause the dishwasher and check the water level inside the  
dishwasher. If the water level is not above the minimum water level  
(marked on the lower spray support tower), increase the fill level.  
1. Ensure the dishwasher is not running through a cycle. Depress  
the WATER TEMP button for 10 seconds until the second buzzer  
sounds (except on ZBD6600).  
¨ Select the normal cycle and press the start button.  
¨ The control will indicate a slow/no fill by flashing the CHINA  
CRYSTAL, LIGHT WASH OR WASH CYCLE light. Check water  
supply, then adjust fill time according to the chart shown.  
¨ Check to be sure that water enters the dishwasher, wait up to  
2 minutes. If water does not enter the dishwasher, check to be  
sure that water is turned on.  
¨ Check for leaks under the dishwasher. If a leak is found, turn  
power and water off, then tighten connections. Restore power  
and water supply.  
¨ Check for leaks around the door. A leak around the door could be
