California Proposition 65 Warning
WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
WARNING

When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. 2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function. 3. Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of the reach of children. 4. When loading items to be washed: locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal, and – load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries. 5. Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations. 6. Do not touch the HEATING ELEMENT during or immediately after use. 7. Do not operate your dishwasher unless all ENCLOSURE panels are properly in place.

Do not tamper with the controls. 9. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher. 10. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher. 11. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hotwater system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time. 12. Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

After unpacking the dishwasher, keep the packaging out of the reach of children. · The dishwasher is extremely heavy. Do not attempt to move or carry the dishwasher
by yourself. Two or more people are needed to move a dishwasher and avoid potential injuries. · As with any equipment using electricity, water, and moving parts, potential hazards exist. · Do not install the dishwasher near electrical components. Keep the dishwasher away from open flames. · Install and level your dishwasher on an uncarpeted floor that can support its weight. · Your dishwasher must be properly grounded. Never connect it to an ungrounded outlet. See page 7 for more information on grounding your dishwasher. Connect the ground wire to the green ground connector in the terminal box. · After the dishwasher is installed, check that the drain hose is properly connected and that there is no leakage from the hose connectors. If the drain hose is loose, it may cause property damage.

The water supply line is susceptible to breakage. As time goes by, it becomes less flexible. Check the line periodically. If it is swollen, torn, cut, or there is a water leak, replace it immediately. · To safely operate this appliance, familiarize yourself with its operations and exercise care when using it. · Do not put gasoline, solvents, or other flammable materials inside the dishwasher. Do not wash dishes exposed to these materials. · Keep your dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children. Detergent has an adverse effect on human organs. It contains elements for polishing and is corrosive. Avoid letting the detergent come into contact with your skin and eyes. · Do not push or place pressure on the door when it is open, as this may damage the dishwasher or cause harm.

Do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher. They may harm themselves or damage the dishwasher. · Disconnect the power cable (or set the circuit breaker to off) before servicing your dishwasher. · Do not repair, replace, or service any part of your dishwasher yourself. Disassembly, repairs, and modifications are permitted by authorized service technicians only. Work done by an unauthorized person may void your warranty.

Safety information

· Before disposing of your dishwasher, remove the door of the washing compartment or the door latch so that children or small animals cannot get trapped inside.
· If the dishwasher is left unused for an extended period of time, turn off the water supply.
· This dishwasher is intended for residential use only.

Before using your dishwasher

WARNING
Tip-Over Hazard · Do not use the dishwasher until it is correctly installed. · Do not push down on the dishwasher door when it is open. · Do not place excessive weight on the dishwasher door when it is
open.

Electric Shock Hazard Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electric shock: · Electrically ground the dishwasher · Connect the ground wire to the green ground connector in the
junction box. · Do not use an extension cord.

Detergent guidelines

All dishwasher cycles require detergent in the detergent compartment. Apply detergent as appropriate for the selected cycle to ensure best performance.
WARNING · Do not consume dishwasher detergent. Avoid breathing in detergent fumes. Dishwasher
detergent contains irritants and caustic chemicals that can induce respiratory conditions. If you have consumed dishwasher detergent or inhaled detergent fumes, seek medical attention immediately. · Keep dishwasher detergent out of children’s reach. CAUTION Use dishwasher detergent only. Other types of detergent produce excessive foam, which may decrease the dishwasher’s performance or cause it to malfunction. To fill the detergent dispenser
1. Open the detergent dispenser cap by pressing the detergent dispenser catch. NOTE
The cap remains open at the end of a cycle.
2. Add the recommended amount of detergent to the main wash detergent compartment. NOTE
There is no separate button that is specific to using tablet detergents.

3. Close the lid by sliding it up.
4. If the items are heavily soiled, pour a small amount of detergent onto the door for better cleaning results. NOTE
The additional detergent will activate during the pre-wash process.
The cover opens automatically to dispense the detergent during the wash.

Rinse aid Rinse aid improves the drying performance of the dishwasher. When the Rinse Refill indicator lights up on the control panel, refill with rinse aid. Only use liquid rinse aid. Powdered rinse aid will clog the compartment opening and cause the dishwasher to malfunction.
CAUTION · Do not apply any type of detergent to the rinse aid compartment. · Do not over fill the compartment. Excessive rinse aid may overflow during a cycle.
1. Open the rinse aid reservoir cap.
2. Fill the rinse aid reservoir with rinse aid. CAUTION
Do not fill the reservoir above the full level indicator. Excess rinse aid can overflow during the wash cycle.
3. Close the rinse aid reservoir cap.

Touchpad responsiveness

To prevent the touch-enabled controls from losing responsiveness, follow these instructions.
· Touch the center of each button with one finger.
· Do not touch more than one button at a time, except as directed.
· Clean the surface of the control panel regularly with a soft, damp cloth.

Cleaning
Keep the dishwasher clean to improve performance, reduce unnecessary repairs, and lengthen its lifecycle.
Exterior Clean spills on the surface of the dishwasher as they occur. Use a soft, damp cloth on the control panel to gently wipe away spills and dust.
CAUTION · Do not use benzene, wax, thinner, chlorine bleach, alcohol, or other chemical substances.
These materials may discolour the surface of the dishwasher and cause stains. · The dishwasher has electric parts inside. Do not sprinkle water directly onto the
dishwasher. Protect electrical components from coming in contact with water. · For a stainless-steel door panel, clean using a stainless steel cleaner for home
appliances and a clean, soft cloth.

Interior Clean the interior of the dishwasher on a regular basis to remove any dirt or food particles. Wipe inside the dishwasher and inside the door with a wet dishcloth. To maintain optimum cleanliness, we recommend running the Self Clean cycle periodically with the dishwasher empty. To keep the cutlery pad clean, turn it over after each use. To remove white spots and odors from the cutlery pad, run the Self Clean cycle with the dishwasher empty and no detergent until the cutlery pad flushes. Then, stop the cycle and put an 8-ounce cup of white vinegar into the lower basket. Close the door, and then resume the cycle. Use a damp cloth to remove lime scale or grease deposits inside the dishwasher. Alternatively, apply some detergent, and then run an empty cycle using the highest rinse temperature.
CAUTION · Do not remove the front seal (the long rubber seal enclosing the opening of the
dishwasher). The seal keeps the inner side of the dishwasher sealed.
