IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be
produced in a water heater that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN
GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water has not been used for two
weeks or more, prevent the possibility of
damage or injury by turning on all hot water
faucets and allowing them to run for several
minutes. Do this before using any electrical
appliance which is connected to the hot water
system. This simple procedure will allow any
built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas
is flammable, do not smoke or use an open
flame or appliance during this process.

This dishwasher must be properly installed and
located in accordance with the Installation
