IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES

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 lavevaisselle 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.

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 calling us toll-free in the USA, at the GE Answer Center®,

800.626.2000. In Canada, call 1.888.880.3030.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES

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

• Use only powder, tabs or liquid detergents

or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of the reach of children.

• 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.

to escape. ATTENTION : Faites attention lorsque vous ouvrez la porte. La vapeur brûlante qui s’échappe

lorsque vous ouvrez la porte pendant un programme de lavage peut causer des brûlures. Lorsque vous ouvrez la porte, reculez et laissez la vapeur s’échapper de l’appareil.
