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
® , Cascade ® Complete
and Electrasol ® Automatic Dishwashing
Detergents, and Jet-Dry ® and Cascade Rinse
Aid ® 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.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
