IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

WARNING

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 allowing 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.

WARNING

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 dishwasher, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

Do not allow children to play with, on, or inside this or any discarded appliance.

Take off the door of the washing compartment.

CAUTION

During or after wash cycle, contents may be hot to

the touch. Use care before handling.

Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is

used by or near children. Do not allow children to play around the dishwasher when closing the door, closing the upper rack, or while vertically adjusting the upper rack due to the possibility of small fingers being pinched.

WATER HEATER SAFETY

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

TO PREVENT MINOR INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE

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.

Load light-weight, 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.

CAUTION

Be sure that the electrical connection and wire size are adequate and in conformance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 – latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

This appliance must have:

120V, 60Hz, AC-only, 15-ampere or 20-ampere, fused

electrical supply.

Wiring must be 2 wire with ground and rated for 75°C (167°F).

accordingly. *Time range: 1 hour 50 minutes - 2 hours 10 minutes.

Intense This cycle is meant for heavily soiled dishes, cookware, pots, or pans with

dried-on or baked-on soils. Everyday dishes are safe to be used in this cycle. *Time: 2 hours 31 minutes.

Normal This cycle is meant for daily, regular, or typical use to completely wash a full

load of normally soiled dishes and is designed to conserve both water and energy. *Time range: 1 hour 15 minutes - 1 hour 50 minutes. NOTE: Normal was used to rate the energy efficiency of this dishwasher.

Delicate This cycle is for light to medium soiled dishes. It is safe for china and crystal

with no options selected. *Time: 55 minutes.
