PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE DISHWASHER

Junked or abandoned dishwashers are
dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a
few days.” If you are getting rid of your old
dishwasher, please follow the instructions
below to help prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Dishwasher:

■ Take off the door of the washing

compartment or remove the door latch
keeper (as shown).

WARNING! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER

CAUTION:

Contents washed in

Anti-Bacteria cycle may be hot to the touch.
Use care before unloading.

■ Use only powder, tabs, liquid detergents

or rinse agents recommended for use in
a dishwasher and keep them out of the
reach of children. Cascade

®

and Electrasol

®

Automatic Dishwashing Detergents, and
Jet-Dry

®

and Cascade Crystal Clear

®

rinse

agents have been approved for use in
all GE dishwashers.

■ Using a detergent that is not specifically

designed for dishwashers will cause the
dishwasher to fill with suds.

■ Locate sharp items so that they are not likely

to damage the door seal.

■ Load sharp knives with the handles up to

reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

■ Do not wash plastic items unless marked

dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For

plastic items not so marked, check the
manufacturer’s recommendations.

■ Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such

as electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters
and paint brushes in your dishwasher.
Damage to dishwasher and discoloration
or staining of dishwasher may result.

■ Do not touch the heating element during

or immediately after use.

■ Do not operate your dishwasher unless all

enclosure panels are properly in place.

■ Close supervision is necessary if this

appliance is used by or near children.

■ Load light, plastic items so they will not

become dislodged and drop to the bottom
of the dishwasher—they might come into
contact with the heating element and be
damaged.

■ If your dishwasher is

connected to a wall
switch, insure that the
switch is on prior
to use.

■ If you choose to turn the switch off

between wash cycles, allow 5–10 seconds after
turning the switch on before touching the
START/RESET pad to allow the control to boot.
