GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
• For a grounded, cord connected
dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be grounded. In
the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding
will reduce 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 conduc-
tor and a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an appropriate outlet that
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.

Before using your dishwasher
wWARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground dishwasher.
Connect ground wire to green ground
connector in terminal box.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
• Remove all shipping plugs from hoses
and connectors (such as the cap on
the drain outlet) before installing. See
Installation Instructions for complete
information.
wWARNING
Tip Over Hazard
Do not use dishwasher until
completely installed.
Do not push down on open door.
Doing so can result in serious injury
or cuts.
• Install where dishwasher is protected
from the elements. Protect against
freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill
valve. Such ruptures are not covered by
the warranty. See “Storing your dish-
washer” in the “Caring for Your Dish-
washer” section for winter storage
information.
• Install and level dishwasher on a floor
that will hold the weight, and in an area
suitable for its size and use.
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 connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead
on the dishwasher.
