Safety Instructions

Operating Instructions

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®rinse agent have been approved for use in

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.
