3. Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher before
attempting to service.
4. To avoid electrical shock hazard, the sides and
back must be enclosed and the front panels must
be attached before electrical power is applied
to the dishwasher. Refer to the installation
instructions for proper grounding procedures.
5. Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized
power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.
6. Children should never be permitted to operate,
or play in, with, or around this dishwasher.
7. To reduce the risk of injury when loading items
to be washed, sharp or pointed items should be
located with the handles up. Also, load sharp
items so they are not likely to damage the door
seal.
8. Do not touch the heating element on the bottom
of the tub during or at the completion of a cycle.
It will be hot.
9. Use only detergents and rinse additives
designed for a residential automatic dishwasher.
Never use soap, laundry detergent, or hand
washing detergent in your dishwasher. Keep
these products out of reach of children.
10. Do not sit, stand on or abuse the door or dish
racks of the dishwasher.
11. 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, 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 process.
12. Do not wash plastic items unless marked
“dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic
items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
13. Do not tamper with controls.
14. To prevent accidental child entrapment and
suffocation risks, always remove the door to the
washing compartment when removing an old
dishwasher from service or discarding it.
15. Use caution when unloading the dishwasher.
Dishes will be hot if unloaded shortly after a
cycle has completed.
16. Certified residential dishwashers are not
intended for licensed food establishments.
17. To avoid water, mold or mildew damage to your
home, inlet and drain hose connections should
be checked periodically for leaks.
Check with the installer to make sure the
appliance has been properly grounded to
avoid possible electrical shock. Be sure you
read the important personal safety instructions
before you use this dishwasher.
