How to Install Sound Insulation to KitchenAid Dishwashers

KitchenAid dishwashers come with an insulating sound pad located directly underneath the appliance. The sound pad must be fully installed when you are setting up your dishwasher for the first time. If there is a loud clicking sound occurring when your dishwasher is running, then you may need to inspect the sound pad to see if it is broken and needs to be replaced.
