not play with the appliance.
The appliance was designed for domestic use inside
the home and is not intended for commercial or
industrial use.
The appliance must be used by adults only, to wash
domestic crockery according to the instructions in
this manual.
The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even

If the appliance breaks down, do not under any
circumstances touch the internal parts in an attempt

inside.
Disposal of old electrical appliances
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
household electrical appliances must not be disposed of
in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old
appliances must be collected separately in order to
optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they
contain and reduce the impact on human health and the
environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on
the product reminds you of your obligation, that when
you dispose of the appliance it must be separately
collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal
of their old appliance.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
Saving water and energy
Only start a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full.
While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent
unpleasant odours with the Soak cycle (
see Wash
Cycles
).
Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of
crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using
the
Wash cycle table
:
- for dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco wash
cycle, which guarantees low energy and water
consumption levels.
- if the load is smaller than usual activate the Half
load* option (
see Start-up and use
).
If your electricity supply contract gives details of
electricity saving time bands, run wash cycles during
the periods when a lower tariff is applied. The
Delayed start* button (
see Start-up and use
) helps
you organise the wash cycles accordingly.
