GE GHDA960 Series Manual Do Utilizador

Junked or abandoned dishwashers are
dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a 
few days.” If you are getting rid of your old
dishwasher, please follow the instructions 
below to help prevent accidents.

■ Take off the door of the washing

compartment or remove the door latch
keeper (as shown).

Contents washed in 

Anti-Bacteria cycle may be hot to the touch. 
Use care before unloading.

■ Use only powder, tabs, liquid detergents 

or rinse agents recommended for use in a
dishwasher and keep them out of the reach 
of children. Cascade

and Electrasol

Automatic Dishwashing

Detergents, and Jet-Dry

and Cascade Rinse

rinse agents have been approved for use

in all GE dishwashers.

■ Using a detergent that is not specifically

designed for dishwashers will cause the
dishwasher to fill with suds.

■ Locate sharp items so that they are not likely

to damage the door seal.

■ Load sharp knives with the handles up to

reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

■ Do not wash plastic items unless marked

dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For 
plastic items not so marked, check the
manufacturer’s recommendations.

■ Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such

as electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters
and paint brushes in your dishwasher.
Damage to dishwasher and discoloration 
or staining of dishwasher may result.

■ Do not touch the heating element during 

or immediately after use.

■ Do not operate your dishwasher unless all 

enclosure panels are properly in place.

■ Close supervision is necessary if this

appliance is used by or near children. 

■ Load light, plastic items so they will not

become dislodged and drop to the bottom 
of the dishwasher—they might come into
contact with the heating element and be
damaged.
