_ WARNING! HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE

Under certain conditions, Hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.

If the hot-water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher, turn

on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame

during this time.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,

grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of the least

resistance for an electrical current. This

appliance is equipped with a grounding conductor that must be installed in accor-

dance with all local codes and ordinances.

_ WARNING!

• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or service rep- resentative if you are in doubt that the appliance is properly grounded.

Safety Precautions

rack of the dishwasher.

, Do not touch the heating element during or

immediately after use.

* Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked

dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturers

recommendations.

, Use only detergent and rinse additives designed for

an automatic dishwasher. Never use liquid soap, laundry detergent, or hand washing detergent in your dishwasher.

, Dishwasher detergents and rinse agents are

extremely harmful if swallowed. Keep children away from dishwasher detergent, rinse agent, and the open door of the dishwasher, as there could still be residue of these cleaning agents

and return the dish racks back to their original

position inside the dishwasher.

erly closed, the dishwasher will not operate and the

message "DOOR OPEN" will appear in the LCD dis- play once the power is turned on. Open and close

the door again, applying a little force if necessary.

3. Press the ON/OFF button.

4. Select the desired wash program (using the program

button) and adjust temperature according to the size

and soil conditions of the dishes.

5. Press the Start/Reset button to start the program.

machine. Always exercise extreme caution when opening the door and removing dishes immediately after a dishwasher program has just ended (the dish- es will be extremely hot and can burn your hands).

Leaving the door slightly ajar will allow hot vapors to escape, expediting the cooling down process.

2. Press the program button to select the desired wash program.

the previous program will automatically be drained when the dishwasher starts. You should check the

status of the automatic detergent dispenser to make sure the detergent was not expelled during the previ ous program. Replenish detergent if necessary.

The end of a wash program is identified as follows;

• The time display will "flash" for 8 seconds.

• An audible alarm will sound (during the same 8 second

period).

NOTE: When the dishwasher program stops at the end of a "delayed start" program (only), the time display will flash, but there is no audible signal.
