PROPER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE

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.

Operating Instructions Safety InstructionsConsumer Support Troubleshooting Tips

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.

WATER HEATER SAFETY

Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.

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 GEAppliances.com.

■ Connect to a grounded metal, permanent

wiring system; or run an equipmentgrounding 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.

■ 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.

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 or removing the door latch.

gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

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).

WARNING! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER

CAUTION: Contents washed in

Anti-Bacteria cycle may be hot to the touch. Use care before unloading.

■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®rinse agent 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.

■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.

■Close supervision is necessary if this

appliance is used by or near children.

■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.
