Important Safety Instructions - Bosch SHU 8800 Use And Care Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING — When using your dishwasher, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to
persons, including the following:
1. Bosch dishwashers are provided with two manuals; one, Installation Instruction
Manual and one, Use and Care Manual. Read all instructions and understand
before using the dishwasher.
2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
3. Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and
keep them out of the reach of children.
4. When loading items to be washed:
a. Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal; and
b. Load knives and other sharp utensils with handles up to reduce the risk of
cut-type injuries.
5. Do not wash plastic items unless marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. For
plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations.
6. Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
7. Do not operate your dishwasher unless all the enclosure panels are properly in
place.
8. Do not tamper with controls.
9. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.
10.To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on 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, 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.
12.Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher
from service or discarding.
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equip-
ment grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equip-
ment grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.
WARNING — This dishwasher must be grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code
and/or local codes. Make sure this dishwasher has been properly grounded and installed by a
qualified installer before using.
