Grounding Instructions
For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher: The dishwasher
must be grounded. In the event of a malfuction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the the risk of electric shock by providing
a path of least resistance for electric current. The dishwasher
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is is installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Warning:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt
whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
For a permanently connected dishwasher: The dishwasher must
be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system,
or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with
the circuit conductors and and connected to the equipment-
grounding terminal or lead the dishwasher.

Dishwasher Use
Loading Suggestions
Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items
from the dishes. To conserve water, energy and save time, it
is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting them into the
dishwasher. The wash system removes food particles from the
water. The system contains a chopping device which will reduce
the size of food items.
NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and eggshells
enter the wash module, you might hear chopping, grinding,
crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds are normal when
hard items enter the module. Do not let metallic items (such
as pot handle screws) get into the wash module. Damage can
occur.
It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.
Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if possible.
For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.
Load heavy pots and pans gently. Heavy items can dent the
stainless steel interior of the door if they are dropped or
bumped.
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc.,
do not interfere with the spray arm rotation.
Conserve water, energy and save time by running a rinse cycle
if you do not plan to wash dishes soon. Foods such as eggs, rice,
pasta, spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if
they are left to dry over a period of time.
Quiet operating tips
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc.,
do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of the
spray arm.
Load dishes so they do not touch one another.
