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.
Before
using
a dish-
washer
that
is connected
to a hot water
system
that
has been
unused
for two weeks
or
longer,
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 explosive,
do not smoke
or
use an open flame
during
this time.
10
Remove
the dishwasher
door
to the washing
compartment
when

by the warranty.
13
