until completely installed.
Do not push down on open door.
Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground dishwasher.
Connect ground wire to green ground connector in
terminal
box.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
•
Install where dishwasher is protected from the elements.
Protect against freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill valve.
Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See "Storing"
section for winter storage information.
•
Install and level dishwasher
on a floor that will hold the
weight, and in an area suitable for its size and use.
•
Remove all shipping plugs from hoses and connectors
(such
as the cap on the drain outlet) before installing. See
Installation Instructions for complete information.
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
equipment-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 equipment-
grounding
conductor
must be run with the circuit
conductors
and connected
to the equipment-
grounding
terminal or lead on the dishwasher.
