■ Read all instrucfions before using the dishwasher.
■ Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
■ Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for
use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach
of children.
■ When loading items to be washed:

damage the door seal; and
2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce
the risk of cut-type injuries.

immediately after use.

■ Do not tamper with controls.
■ Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish
racks of the dishwasher.
■ To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to
play in or on the 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.

discarding it.
