Important Safety Instructions
Products with a label have been listed with
Underwriter's Laboratories, Inc. – those with a CSA tag
have been listed with Canadian Standards Association.
Nevertheless, as with any other equipment using elec-
tricity and moving parts, there is a potential hazard.
WARNING – When using your dishwasher,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
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 instruc-
tions 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.
® WARNING: 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.

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, turn on all hot water
faucets and let the water flow from each for sev-
eral 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 "dish-
washer safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items
not so marked, check the manufacturer's recom-
mendations.
13. Do not tamper with controls.
14. Always remove the door to the washing compart-
ment when removing an old dishwasher from ser-
vice or discarding it.
15. Use caution when unloading the dishwasher.
Dishes will be hot if unloaded shortly after a cycle
has completed.
