3. Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher before 

attempting to service.

4. To avoid electrical shock hazard, the sides and 

back must be enclosed and the front panels must 

be attached before electrical power is applied 

to the dishwasher. Refer to the installation 

instructions for proper grounding procedures.

5. Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized 

power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.

6. Children should never be permitted to operate, 

or play in, with, or around this dishwasher.

7. To reduce the risk of injury when loading items 

to be washed, sharp or pointed items should be 

located with the handles up.  Also, load sharp 

items so they are not likely to damage the door 

seal.

8. Do not touch the heating element on the bottom 

of the tub during or at the completion of a cycle. 

It will be hot.

9.   Use only detergents and rinse additives 

designed for a residential automatic dishwasher. 

Never use soap, laundry detergent, or hand 

washing detergent in your dishwasher. Keep 

these products out of reach of children.

10.  Do not sit, stand on or abuse the door or dish   

racks of 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, 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 process.

12.  Do not wash plastic items unless marked 

“dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic 

items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s 

recommendations.

13. Do not tamper with controls.

14.  To prevent accidental child entrapment and 

suffocation risks, always remove the door to the 

washing compartment when removing an old 

dishwasher from service or discarding it.

15.  Use caution when unloading the dishwasher. 

Dishes will be hot if unloaded shortly after a 

cycle has completed.

16.  Certified residential dishwashers are not 

intended for licensed food establishments.

17.  To avoid water, mold or mildew damage to your 

home, inlet and drain hose connections should 

be checked periodically for leaks.

Check with the installer to make sure the 

appliance has been properly grounded to 

avoid possible electrical shock. Be sure you 

read the important personal safety instructions 

before you use this dishwasher.
