3. Prepare the custom door panel according to your dishwasher's specifications (dimensions, weight).

3. Optional: Drill pilot holes into the custom panel at the marked locations to prevent wood splitting, if applicable.
4. Attach the custom panel to the metal brackets using the remaining screws from the kit. Ensure the panel is level and flush with adjacent cabinets.
5. Use the "Perfect Fit" guides if your dishwasher model requires them for precise alignment or spacing.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during or after installation, consider the following common solutions:

• Door not aligning properly: Check if the dishwasher itself is level. Adjust the dishwasher's leveling feet or reposition the mounting brackets on the door panel.
• Door feels loose: Ensure all screws are securely tightened. Verify that the correct screw lengths were used for both the dishwasher door and the custom panel.
• Gaps between panel and cabinetry: Re-check the alignment and use the plastic spacers/feet for fine adjustments if necessary. Ensure the custom panel dimensions match the dishwasher's requirements.
• Difficulty closing the door: Inspect for any obstructions. Ensure the panel is not too heavy or improperly balanced, causing strain on the hinges.

8. Maintenance

Once installed, the mounting kit requires minimal maintenance. Periodically check the following:

• Screw Tightness: Over time, screws may loosen due to vibration. Periodically check and retighten any loose screws on the mounting brackets and the custom panel.
• Alignment: Ensure the door panel remains properly aligned with your cabinetry. Adjust if necessary.
• Hinge Operation: If the dishwasher door hinges become stiff or noisy, consult your dishwasher's main instruction manual for hinge lubrication or adjustment procedures.
