IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or death.
WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water faucets and allow them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
PROPER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
This dishwasher must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet with your dishwasher, you can receive one by visiting our website at www.GEAppliances.com.
■Connect to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or run an equipment-grounding conductor with the circuit conductors and connect to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead of the appliance.
■Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.
■Use supply conductors rated at least 75°C (167°F).
■Dispose of discarded appliances and shipping or packing material properly.
■Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your dishwasher unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
■To minimize the possibility of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting any maintenance.
NOTE: Turning the dishwasher off does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply. We recommend having a qualified technician service your appliance.
WARNING!
DO NOT…
■Do not tamper with controls.
■Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.
■Do not discard a dishwasher without first removing the door of the washing compartment.
■Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
■Do not allow children to play around dishwasher when opening or closing door due to the possibility of small fingers being pinched in door.
■Do not allow children to play with, on or around this appliance or any discarded appliance.

WARNING! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE DISHWASHER
Junked or abandoned dishwashers are dangerous… even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old dishwasher, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Dishwasher
■Take off the door of the washing compartment or remove the door latch keeper (as shown).
Door latch keeper
WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER
■Use only powder, tabs, liquid detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of the reach of children. Cascade®, Cascade® Complete and
Electrasol® Automatic Dishwashing Detergents, and Jet-Dry® and Cascade Rinse Aid® rinse agents have been approved for use in all
GE dishwashers.
■Using a detergent that is not specifically designed for dishwashers will cause the dishwasher to fill with suds.
■Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children.
■Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal.
■Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
■Do not wash plastic items unless marked dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
■Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such as electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters and paint brushes in your dishwasher. Damage to dishwasher and discoloration or staining of dishwasher may result.
■Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
■Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
■Load light, plastic items so they will not become dislodged and drop to the bottom of the dishwasher–they might come into contact with the heating element and be damaged.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Cycles
HEAVY WASH For heavily soiled dishes or cookware with dried-on or baked-on soils. Everyday dishes may be included. This cycle will not remove burned-on foods.
NORMAL WASH For loads of everyday dishes, glasses and cookware with medium soils. NOTE: Many dishes have lighter soil than normal. Choosing a cycle other than NORMAL WASH will save energy and water.
SHORT WASH For quickly washing loads of everyday dishes with medium soils that have not dried on, such as loads consisting mostly of glasses.
RINSE ONLY For rinsing partial loads that will be washed later. Do not use detergent.
PLATE WARMER For warming clean dishes and serving plates. This cycle will take approximately 30 minutes.
HOT START Preheats wash water to the correct temperature.
Energy Options
HEATED DRY ON Turns the heating element on for fast drying. This option will extend the time of your wash cycle. Available on all wash cycles except RINSE ONLY. Adds approx. 32 minutes to the cycle.
HEATED DRY OFF Turns HEATED DRY off. Dishes air dry naturally and energy is saved.
Start
Slowly turn the Dial to the START or ON position, or the selected cycle. Don’t turn it past the START, ON or cycle position, or you could accidentally miss a rinse.
There is a time delay between start-up and water fill so you will not hear any wash action right away.
■ Latch the door to begin the cycle.
