Brand New Dishwasher Leaking Water Around Top Of Door.

I have just finished installing my new DU1055XTVB. Ran it for the first time and noticed water on the floor. After investigating, you can see water on the top of the door. I then pulled the dishwasher out, and ran it out of the cabinet, and I am still getting the same result and I can actually see the water shooting out of the top of the door. Any help before I call warranty service, would be great.
