SAFETY AND CAUTION
• Read all instructions before using the
dishwasher.
• This manual contains very important
notes regarding the installation, use
and maintenance of your dishwasher.
• The manufacturer can not be
responsible for problems caused by
ignoring these safety and caution
instructions.
• Use the dishwasher only for its
intended function.
• This dishwasher is designed for normal
household use.
• Do not use the dishwasher for
industrial and commercial use, or other
purpose.
• Use only detergents or wetting agents
recommended for use in a dishwasher
and keep them out of the reach of
children.
• Do not use the detergent for hand
washing.
The detergent for dishwasher should be
used for normal operation.
• When loading items to be washed:
-locate sharp items so that they are not
likely to damage the door seal; and
-load sharp knives with the handles up
to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
• Do not wash plastic items unless they
are marked “dishwasher safe” or the
equivalent. For plastic items not so
marked, check the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
• Only suitable household utensils
should be placed in the dishwasher.
(Please avoid utensils; that are non-
heartresistant, metal decorated, etc.)
• Do not touch the heating element
during or immediately after use.
• Do not operate your dishwasher unless
all enclosure panels are properly in
place.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the
door or dish rack of the dishwasher.
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not
allow children to play in or on a
dishwasher.
• 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,
before using the dishwasher 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 time.
• Remove the door to the washing
compartment when removing an old
dishwasher from service or discarding
it.
WARNING - When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
