DISHWASHER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or

“WARNING.” These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

ADANGER

AWARNING

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING : When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function. Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended

for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the

reach of children.

When loading items to be washed:

1) Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to

damage the door seal; and

2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce

the risk of cut-type injuries.

Do not wash plastic items unless they are 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.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Do not operate the 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

racks of the dishwasher.

To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to

play in or on the dishwasher. 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.

Remove the door to the washing compartment when

removing an old dishwasher from service or

discarding it.

Before Using Your Dishwasher

^WARNING

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher untii completely instaiied. Do not push down on open door. Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

AWARNING

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be grounded, in the event

of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. The

dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an

equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appro priate outlet that is installed and grounded in

accordance 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 representative if you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

For a permanently connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Eiectricai Shock Hazard

Eiectricaily ground dishwasher.

Connect ground wire to green ground connector in terminai box.

Do not use an extension cord. Faiiure to foiiow these instructions can resuit in

death, fire, or eiectricai shock.

Install where dishwasher is protected from the elements. Protect against freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill valve. Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See “Storing Your Dishwasher” in the “Dishwasher Care” section for winter storage information. '

Install and level dishwasher on a floor that will hold the weight, and in an area suitable for its size and use.

Remove all shipping plugs from hoses and connectors (such as the cap on the drain outlet) before installing. See Installation Instructions for complete information.
