IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES
4
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this guide must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
• 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 inside, on or with
this appliance or any discarded appliance.
MISE EN GARDE!
Pour votre sécurité, veuillez suivre à la lettre les directives données dans le présent guide afin de réduire les risques d’incendie, d’explosion ou de chocs électriques, et prévenir les dommages matériels et les blessures graves ou mortelles.
• Ne modifiez pas le fonctionnement des commandes.
• Ne montez pas ou ne vous assoyez pas sur la porte ou les paniers du lave-vaisselle, et ne les utilisez pas de façon abusive.
• Ne jetez pas un lave-vaisselle sans en avoir d’abord enlevé la porte.
• N’entreposez pas et n’utilisez pas d’essence, de vapeurs ou de liquides inflammables à proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre électroménager.
• Ne laissez pas les enfants jouer avec le lave-vaisselle ni monter dessus. Ne les laissez pas s’introduire à l’intérieur de cet appareil ou d’un vieil appareil qui ne sert plus.
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 allowing 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.
SÉCURITÉ DU CHAUFFE-EAU
Dans certaines conditions, il peut se former de l’hydrogène à l’intérieur d’un chauffe-eau qui n’a pas servi pendant deux semaines ou plus. L’HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF.
Pour réduire les risques de dommages ou de blessures lorsque l’eau chaude n’a pas été utilisée depuis deux semaines ou plus, ouvrez
tous les robinets d’eau chaude et laissez l’eau couler pendant plusieurs minutes avant d’utiliser un appareil électrique raccordé au système d’eau chaude. Vous éliminerez ainsi l’hydrogène qui pourrait s’y être accumulé. Puisqu’il s’agit d’un gaz inflammable, ne fumez pas ou n’utilisez pas une flamme nue au cours de ce processus.

CAUTION
Contents washed in SaniWash may be hot to the touch. Use care before unloading.

POWER For use with heavily soiled and/or dried-on, baked-on soils. This option PRESOAK MUST be selected PRIOR to starting the cycle. This option adds
16 minutes to the cycle time.

SPEED DRY Turns the heater on for fast drying. This cycle will extend the time ON to ON your wash cycle by 23 minutes for the NORMAL cycle and 30 minutes for
the SANIWASH cycle. NOTE: Cannot be selected with RINSE & HOLD cycle.
LOCK
When the LOCK pad is touched twice within 3 seconds, all pads become inoperative. You can lock the controls to prevent any selections from being made. Or you can lock the controls after you have

Pressing the START/RESET button will cancel the DELAY START selection. NOTE: If you forget to latch the door a reminder signal will
beep until you do so.
RESET To change a cycle after washing starts, touch the START/RESET pad
to cancel the cycle. After water is pumped out and the motor stops, you can reprogram and restart the dishwasher. This will take approximately 90 seconds.

NOTE: The dishwasher remembers your last cycle so you don’t have to reprogram each time. When the dishwasher is loaded and the door latch is in the locked position, the control panel lights will be on and display the last settings you selected.
If you do not want to change any of the settings, simply touch the START/RESET pad to begin the cycle.
Also, if a power failure occurs, NORMAL and SPEED DRY will automatically be programmed. Make any new selections and touch the START/RESET pad to begin the cycle.
