IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING —
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, and to prevent property damage, personal injury, or death.
WARNING! WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two or more weeks. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water has not been used for two or more weeks, 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 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, use an open flame, or use the appliance during this process.
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 ge.com.
■Connect the dishwasher/appliance to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or run an equipment-grounding conductor with the circuit conductors and connect to the equipmentgrounding terminal or lead of the appliance.
■Improper connection of the equipment-grounding 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.
■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.
CAUTION: To prevent minor injury and property damage
■ Contents washed in Anti-bacterial mode, if available, may be hot to the touch. Use care
before handling.
■ Using a detergent that is not specifically designed for dishwashers will cause the dishwasher to fill with suds.
■ If your dishwasher is connected to a wall switch, ensure that the switch is
on prior to use.
■ On dishwashers with electronic controls, if you choose to turn the wall switch off between wash cycles, allow 5-10
seconds after turning the switch on before 2 touching START/RESET to allow the control
to initialize.
■Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such as electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters and paint brushes in your dishwasher. Damage to the dishwasher and discoloration or staining of the dishwasher may result.
■Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children.
■Load light, plastic items so they do not become dislodged and drop to the bottom of the dishwasher—they might come into contact with the heating element and be damaged.

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
WARNING! When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
■Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner's Manual.
■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 Crystal Clear® rinse agents have been approved for use in all GE dishwashers.
■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.
■Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
■Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
■Do not tamper with controls.
■Do not abuse, sit on or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.
■Do not allow children to play around the dishwasher when opening or closing the door due to the possibility of small fingers being pinched in the door.
■Do not discard a dishwasher without first removing the door of the washing compartment or the latch keeper.
■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 with, on or inside this or any discarded appliance.
