READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Risk of explosion!
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. Before 
using a dishwasher that is connected to a 
hot water system that has been unused 
for two weeks or longer, 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 explosive, do not smoke or use an 
open flame during this time.

Remove the dishwasher door to the washing 
compartment when removing an old 
dishwasher for service or discarding.

To avoid floor damage and possible mold 
growth, do not allow wet areas to remain 
around or under the dishwasher.

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow 
water to remain in your dishwasher systems 
through extended periods of freezing 
temperatures. Freezing temperatures can 
damage the water fill valve and potentially 
other components of your dishwasher.

It is highly recommended for the end 

user to become familiar with the procedure to 
shut off the incoming water supply and the 
procedure to shut off the incoming power 
supply. See the Installation Instructions or 
contact your installer for more information.
