Avoiding General Hazards
Do not use the dishwasher until it is completely installed. When opening
the door on an uninstalled dishwasher, carefully open the door while
supporting the rear of the unit. Failure to follow this warning can cause the
dishwasher to tip over and result in serious injury.
Before installing the supplied counter top mounting brackets, decide which
method will be used to secure the dishwasher into its opening. Once these
mounting brackets are installed on the dishwasher, removing them is dif-
ficult and will damage the mounting brackets and the dishwasher.
In some conditions, hydrogen gas can form in a hot water system that
has not been used for weeks. Hydrogen gas is explosive. Before filling a
dishwasher from a system that has been off for weeks, run the water from
a nearby faucet in a well ventilated area until there is no sound or evidence
of gas.
Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dish-
washer’s base and water inlet valve. If plumbing lines are to be soldered
or sweated, keep the heat source at least 6″ (152.4 mm) away from the
dishwasher.
Removing any cover or pulling the dishwasher from the cabinet can
expose hot water connections, electrical power and sharp edges or points.
Handle with care.
Avoiding Electrical Shock/Fire Hazards
Do not work on an energized circuit. Doing so could result in serious
injury or death. Only qualified electricians should perform electrical work.
Do not attempt any work on the dishwasher electric supply circuit until
you are certain the circuit is de-energized.
Make sure electrical work is properly installed. There should be no loose
electrical connections. Ensure all electrical connections are properly
made.
The customer has the responsibility of ensuring that the dishwasher
electrical installation is in compliance with all national and local electrical
codes and ordinances. The dishwasher is designed for an electrical
supply of 120V, 60 Hz, AC, connected to a dishwasher-dedicated, properly
grounded electrical circuit with a fuse or breaker rated for 15 amps.
Electrical supply conductors shall be a minimum #14 AWG copper only
wire rated at 75°C (167°F) or higher.
