installing or using the dishwasher.
•
This appliance must be grounded to a metal, permanent wiring

washing of household dishware and kitchenware.
•
Use only detergents or rinsing aids recommended for use in a
dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.

•
Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish racks of the dish-
washer.
•
To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on
the dishwasher.
•
When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is
the responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure that
they are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
•
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. Before using a dishwasher that is
connected to a hot water system that has been unused for two
weeks or longer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water
flow from each for several minutes, open windows to ventilate the
house. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas
is explosive, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
•
Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when
removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding.
•
To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet
areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.
•
Protect your dishwasher from the elements. Protect against freezing
to avoid possible damage to the fill valve. Damage caused by
freezing is not covered by the warranty.
