follow
basic precautions
including
the following:
Read all instructions
before using your
dishwasher.
• Use your dishwasher
only as instructed
in
this Use & Care Guide.
• This Guide does not cover every possible
condition
and situation
that may occur. Use
common
sense and caution when installing,

and maintaining
any appliance.
• DISHWASHER

GROUNDED.
Read the Installation
Instructions
for details.
• This dishwasher
is designed
to operate on
regular house current (120 V, 60 Hz). Use a
circuit equipped
with a 15 ampere fuse or
circuit breaker. Use a 20 ampere fuse if
dishwasher
is connected
with a food waste
disposer.
• Do not operate dishwasher
unless all
enclosure
panels are in their proper place.
• To avoid entrapment
and/or suffocation,
remove door or door latch mechanism
from
any dishwasher
that is discarded
or not in
use.
• Keep young children and infants away from
dishwasher
when it is operating.
• Do not let children abuse, sit, stand or play
on door or racks of a dishwasher.
• Use only detergents
and rinse agents
recommended
for use in a dishwasher.
• Store dishwasher
detergent
and rinse
agents out of the reach of children.
•
Do not wash plastic items unless marked
"dishwasher
safe" or the equivalent.
Check
with manufacturer
for recommendations,
if
not marked. Items that are not dishwasher
safe may melt and create a potential fire
hazard.
•
If the dishwasher
drains into a food
disposer,
make sure disposer
is completely
empty before running dishwasher.
•
Disconnect
electrical
power to dishwasher
before servicing.
•
Repairs should be done by a qualified
technician.
•
Do not tamper with controls.
•
Do not touch the heating element during or
immediately
after use.
• When loading items to be washed:
- Locate sharp items and knives so that
they are not likely to damage
the door
seal or tub.
- Load sharp items and knives with the
handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type
injuries.
•
Under certain conditions,
hydrogen
gas may
be produced
in a hot water system that has
not been used for 2 weeks or more.
HYDROGEN
GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If hot
water system has not been used for such a
period, before using dishwasher,
turn on all
hot water faucets and let water flow from
each for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated
hydrogen gas.
HYDROGEN
GAS IS FLAMMABLE.
Do not
smoke or use an open flame during this
time.
•
Do not store or use combustible
materials,
gasoline
or other flammable
