• Do not wash plastic items in the dishwasher
unless they are labeled dishwasher-safe or the
equivalent. For plastic items not so labeled,
check the manufacturer's recommendations.
• 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 around a 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 of time, turn on
all hot water faucets and let the water flow for
several minutes. This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas. Since hydrogen
gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time.
• Remove the door to the wash compartment
when disposing of an old dishwasher.
