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
®
and Electrasol
®
Automatic Dishwashing Detergents, and
Jet-Dry
®
and Cascade Crystal Clear
®
rinse
agents 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.
■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.
■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.
