GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance 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.
WARNING
This dishwasher must be grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code
and/or local codes. Make sure this dishwasher has been properly grounded and installed
by a qualified installer before using.
1. Thermador dishwashers are provided with two
manuals: an Installation Instruction Manual and a
Care and Use Manual. Read all instructions before
using the dishwasher.
2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
3. Use only detergents or wetting agents
recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep
them out of the reach of children.
4. When loading items to be washed:
a. Locate sharp items so that they are not likely
to damage the door seal; and
b. Load sharp knives with the handle up to reduce
the risk of cut-type injuries.
5. Do not wash plastic items unless marked
“dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic
items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
6. Do not touch the heating element during or
immediately after use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
When using your dishwasher, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock,
and/or injury to persons,
including the following:
Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
7. Do not operate your dishwasher unless all the
enclosure panels are properly in place.
8. Do not tamper with controls.
9. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish
rack of the dishwasher.
10. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children
to play in or on the dishwasher.
11. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is
explosive. If the hot water system has not been
used for such a period, before using the dishwasher
turn on all hot water faucets and let the water
flow from each for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame
during this time.
12. Remove the door to the washing compartment
when removing an old dishwasher from service or
discarding.
