Children
Never allow children to play with the
dishwasher. Detergents contain irritants
and abrasives which could affect the
eyes, mouth and throat. Keep
detergents out of reach and only put
them into the machine just before
starting a washing programme.
Dishwasher waste water is not suitable
for drinking.
Never allow children to play on or sit
on the door when it is open.
Please ensure that packaging material
is disposed of in a responsible manner.
Plastic bags should be cut up to prevent
children playing with them and
accidentally suffocating.
This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
General safety
The machine must be installed and
connected in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
The machine must only be used
domestically and for the purposes for
which it was designed.
Do not leave the machine exposed to
direct sunlight or rain.
Never add chemical solvents or
flammable liquids to the tank as they
constitute a fire hazard.
Never use any detergents or water
softeners, other than those specifically
manufactured for use in dishwashers.
The door of the machine has been designed
to support the weight of a fully loaded lower
rack. Never place any other load on the
door as the machine may then tip forwards.
In case of malfunction or maintenance
work, disconnect the machine from the
electrical
mains immediately.
Should you at any time in the future scrap
the machine, cut the power cord and take
measures to render the door lock
inoperative. This will prevent children, when
playing, getting trapped inside.
Environmental care
Where possible, help to protect our
environment by disposing of packaging
material in a responsible manner.
You can save water by observing these
simple guidelines:
Remove bones and residue from dirty
dishes.
Avoid partial loads and only start the
machine when it is fully loaded.
Select the programme according to the dirt
level of the load.
Use a programme which includes pre-wash
for very dirty dishes.
Unsuitable dishes for dishwashers
Ascertain that your dinnerware and cutlery
is dishwasher compatible.
Do not wash cutlery with wooden or bone
handles, items which have been glued
together, copper or tin utensils and non
heat- resistant plastics.
Do not wash items containing cigarette
ash, candle wax, or dyes, as these may
harm the machine.
Some glazed and decorated china,
aluminium and silverware may discolour
or fade when washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal and some glassware may lose its
shine or become opaque after repeated
washing in a dishwasher.
