General safety

•  This  appliance  should  not  be  operated 

by children younger than 8 years, people 

with reduced physical, sensory or mental 

capacities, or inexperienced people 

who are not familiar with the product,

or instructions on how to use it safely and 

are made aware by a responsible person 

of the dangers its use might entail. 

• Children must not play with the appliance.

•  It is the user's responsibility to clean and 

maintain the appliance. Children should 

never clean or maintain it unless they are 

given supervision.

• The appliance was designed for domestic 

use inside the home and is not intended 

for commercial or industrial use.

• The  appliance  must  be  used  to  wash 

domestic crockery in accordance with the 

instructions in this manual.

outdoors, even in covered areas. It is 

extremely dangerous to leave the machine 

exposed to rain and storms.

• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.

• When unplugging the appliance always 

pull the plug from the mains socket. Do 

not pull on the cable.

• The  water  supply  tap  must  be  shut  off 

and the plug should be removed from 

the electrical socket at the end of every 

cycle and before cleaning the appliance 

or carrying out any maintenance work. 

• The maximum number of place settings is 

shown in the product sheet. 

• If the appliance breaks down, do not under 

any circumstances touch the internal parts 

in an attempt to perform the repair work 

yourself. 

• Do not lean or sit on the open door: this 

may cause the appliance to overturn.

dishwasher against a wall.

Disposal

• To dispose of any packaging materials, 

follow local legislation so that the 

packagings may be reused.

• The  European  Directive  2012/19/EU 

relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic 

Equipment (WEEE) states that household 

appliances should not be disposed of 

using the normal solid urban waste cycle. 

Exhausted appliances should be collected 

separately in order to optimise the cost of 

reusing and recycling the materials inside 

the machine, while preventing potential 

damage to the atmosphere and public 

health. The crossed-out dustbin symbol 

shown on all products reminds the owners 

of their obligations regarding separated 

waste collection.

  For further information relating to the 

correct disposal of household appliances, 

owners may contact the relevant public 

authority or the local appliance dealer.
