(such as the cap on the drain outlet) before installing. See
Installation Instructions or complete information.
Dishwasher Safety
• 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 conductor 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.
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.
