BEFORE USING YOUR DISHWASHER

BEFORE USING YOUR DISHWASHER

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.

Do not push down on open door.

Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrically ground dishwasher.

Connect ground wire to green ground nut in terminal box.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to do so can result in death, fire or electrical shock.

■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 “Storage or Seasonal Use” in the “Caring for Your Dishwasher” 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.

■See Installation Instructions for complete information.

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 appropriate 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 a equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.
