IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Read all instructions carefully prior to use. For your safety, the information detailed in this manual should be followed. Improper use and/or handling can cause serious damage to the appliance and/or to the user including but not limited to fire, explosion, and/or electric shock, resulting in personal injury, or death. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner′s Manual. WATER HEATER SAFETY PRECAUTION Hydrogen gas is flammable! Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for more than two weeks. To prevent the possibility of damage and/or injury, turn on all hot water faucets and allow them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will release any built-up hydrogen gas. Since hydrogen gas is flammable, do not smoke, use an open flame or use any appliance during this process. PROPER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE When installing and servicing your dishwasher, refer to the following: • This dishwasher should be properly installed and placed in a location in accordance with the Installation Instructions prior to operation. • Connect the dishwasher to a grounded permanent electrical system. • Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Improper electrical connection poses a risk of electric shock. • Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your dishwasher unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. • All other service maintenance should be completed by a qualified technician. • To minimize the possibility of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting any maintenance. Turning the dishwasher OFF does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply. • Dispose of discarded appliances, including any shipping and packaging materials, properly.
