IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

To avoid risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury, or death when using your dishwasher, follow these basic
precautions:
1. Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
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. Be careful not to touch the heating element on the bottom of the tub during or at the completion of a cycle.
It may be hot.
9. Use only detergents and rinse additives designed for an 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, 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.
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 risk, 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.
Proper disposal of your appliance:
Important: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past.
Junked or abandoned appliances are still dangerous—even if they sit "just
for a few days". If you are getting rid of your old appliance:
• Remove dishwasher door completely from unit.
• Keep shelves or racks in place so that children may not easily climb
inside.
