Step 9 · Secure the Dishwasher

After confirming the dishwasher runs without any leaks, perform the final step. Open the dishwasher door and locate the mounting brackets at the top of the unit. Using the provided screws and a screwdriver or drill, fasten these brackets to the underside of the countertop. This secures the dishwasher in place, preventing it from tipping forward when the racks are loaded and pulled out. Finally, install the lower toe-kick panel at the base of the dishwasher, which usually snaps or screws into place.
