CAUTION
Burn hazard.
Can cause personal injury.
Allow the cells to cool completely in the
dishwasher at the end of the wash cycle or
wear protective gloves to avoid burns. Hot
water can accumulate in the tubes supporting
the collector plates. Tip the cells so these tubes
will drain.
IMPORTANT
•Check your dishwasher owner’s manual.
Some manufacturers do not recommend
washing electronic cells in their
dishwashers.
•If the dishwasher has upper and lower
arms, position the cells carefully to allow
good water circulation.
•Be careful to avoid damaging the cells
when placing them in the dishwasher.
Broken ionizer wires or bent collector
plates are not covered under the
warranty.
•Very dirty cells, especially from tobacco or
cooking smoke, can discolor the plastic
parts and the lining of some dishwashers.
This discoloration is not harmful. To
minimize it, wash the cells more fre-
quently or try a different brand
of detergent.
•Do NOT allow the dishwasher to run
through the dry cycle. This will bake
on any contaminants not removed
during the wash cycle and reduce air
cleaner efficiency.
