DISHWASHER SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.
Tip Over Hazard
Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.
Do not push down on open door.
Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.
You Need to:
• Slowly open dishwasher door while someone grasps the rear
of the dishwasher. Remove shipping materials and drain hose.
Close dishwasher door until latched.
NOTE: Each dishwasher is tested at the factory and may contain
some residual water in the tub as a result of the test.
• Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
• Install this dishwasher as specified in these instructions.
• Installation should be performed by a qualified service
technician. The dishwasher must be installed to meet all
electrical and plumbing national and local codes and
ordinances.
Care shall be exercised when the appliance is installed or
removed, to reduce the likelihood of damage to the power-supply
cord.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to
persons, the installer must ensure that the dishwasher is
completely enclosed at the time of installation.
