IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
- When using the dishwasher, •
follow basic precautions, including the
following: •
• Read all instructions before using the •
dishwasher.
• Use the dishwasher only for its intended
function.
• Use only detergents or rinse agents •
recommended for use in the dishwasher,
and keep them out of the reach of children.
• When loading items to be washed:
1) Locate sharp items so that they are not
likely to damage the door seal; and
2) Load sharp knives with the handles up
to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
• Do not wash plastic items unless they
are marked "dishwasher safe" or the
equivalent. For plastic items not so
marked, check the manufacturer's
recommendations. •
• Do not touch the heating element during
or immediately after use.
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 on the 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, before using the
dishwasher turn on all hot water faucets
and let the water flow from each for several
minutes. This will release any accumulated
hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable,
do not smoke or use an open flame during
this time.
Remove the door to the washing compart-
ment when removing an old dishwasher
from service or discarding it.
