Before Using Your Dishwasher

AWARNING

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher untii compietely instaiied.

Do not push down on open door.

Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

AWARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrically ground dishwasher.

Connect ground wire to green ground connector
in terminal box.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in

death, fire, or electrical shock.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event

of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current. The
dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appro­
priate outlet that is installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING:

improper connection of the

equipment-grounding conductor can result in a

risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service representative if you are in
doubt whether the dishwasher is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with

the dishwasher: if it will not fit the outlet, have a

proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

For a permanently connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be connected to a
grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an
equipment-grounding conductor must be run

with the circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the
dishwasher.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Install where dishwasher is protected from the elements.

Protect against freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill valve.

Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See “Storing
Your Dishwasher” in the “Dishwasher Care” section for winter

storage information.

Install and level dishwasher on a floor that will hold the
weight, and in an area suitable for its size and use.

Remove all shipping plugs from hoses and connectors (such
as the cap on the drain outlet) before installing. See

Installation Instructions for complete information.
