PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE DISHWASHER
Junked or abandoned dishwashers are
dangerous … even if they will sit for “just a
few days.” If you are getting rid of your old
dishwasher, please follow the instructions below
to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Dishwasher:
■
Take off the door of the washing
compartment or remove the door latch
keeper (as shown).
WARNING! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER
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 all GE dishwashers.
■
Using a detergent
that is not specifically
designed for dishwashers
will cause the dishwasher
to fill with suds.
■
If your dishwasher is
connected to a wall
switch, insure that the
switch is on prior to use.
■
If you choose to turn the
switch off between wash cycles, allow 5–10
seconds after turning the switch on before
touching the
START/RESET
pad to allow the
control to boot.
■
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.
