IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11
Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dish‐
washer to tip and be damaged, and you could get injured.
Dishes can be very hot at the end of a program. Allow them to
cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before unloading.
Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dish‐
washers. Do not use dishwashing liquid.
Do not use commercial or industrial detergents as these may
cause damage, and there is a risk of a severe explosive chemical re‐
action (such as an explosive oxyhydrogen gas reaction).
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
This will cause serious damage to the reservoir.
Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dish‐
washer detergent will damage the water softener. Make sure you
have picked up the correct packet of dishwasher salt before filling
the salt reservoir!
Only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation.
Do not use other salts such as cooking salt, agricultural grade or
gritting salt. These may contain insoluble additives which can impair
the functioning of the water softener.
In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cut‐
lery is cleaned and dried more efficiently if placed in the basket with
the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place
knives and forks with the handles upwards.
Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water,
such as disposable plastic containers or plastic cutlery should not
be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dish‐
washer may cause them to melt or lose shape.
If you use the "FlexiTimer/Delay Start" option (depending on mod‐
el), make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent.
Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dis‐
penser and may not be thoroughly dispersed.
