few days.” If you are getting rid of your old
dishwasher, please follow the instructions below
to help prevent accidents.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual
must be followed to minimize the risk of fire,
explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property
damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
•Do not tamper with controls.
•Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or
dish rack of the dishwasher.
•Do not discard a dishwasher without first
removing the door or removing the door latch.
•Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
•Do not allow children to play inside, on or with
this appliance or any discarded appliance.
•Do not allow children to play around the
dishwasher when opening and closing the door
due to possibility of small fingers being pinched
in the door.
WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be
produced in a water heater that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN
GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water has not been used for two
weeks or more, prevent the possibility of
damage or injury by turning on all hot water
faucets and allowing them to run for several
minutes. Do this before using any electrical
appliance which is connected to the hot water
system. This simple procedure will allow any
built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas
is flammable, do not smoke or use an open
flame or appliance during this process.
