GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric
current. The dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that
is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipement-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are
in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
For a permanently connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an
equipement-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected
to the equipement-grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR OR REPLACE ANY PART OF YOUR DISHWASHER UNLESS IT
IS SPECIFICALLY RECOMMENDED IN THIS MANUAL. ALL OTHER SERVICING SHOULD BE
REFERRED TO A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN.
To minimize the possibility of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power
supply before attempting any maintenance.
NOTE: Turning off the dishwasher does not disconnect the appliance from the power
supply. We recommend having a qualified technician service your appliance.
