INTRODUCTION

To get the best out of your new appliance, please read
this user guide carefully before using the appliance

for the first time. Take particular note of the safety

precautions. We also recommend that you keep the
instructions for future reference, so that you can remind
yourself of the functions of your appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
General
• Incorrect use of this appliance may cause personal

injury and damage.

• Use for its intended purpose only. The manufacturer

is not responsible for any injury or damage resulting

from incorrect use or handling (see also Guarantee
Terms).

• For domestic use only. Not for outdoor or

commercial use.

• Do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water

and make sure no water enters the appliance.

• Never touch the appliance, cord or plug with wet or

damp hands.

• Do not expose to direct sunlight, high temperatures,

humidity, dust or corrosive substances.

• Keep the appliance under constant supervision

while in use. Keep an eye on children in the

vicinity of the appliance when it is being used. The
appliance is not a toy.

• The appliance is not to be used by persons with

reduced sensitivity, physical or mental disabilities or
persons who are unable to use the appliance, unless
supervised or instructed by a person responsible for
their safety.

• Dishwasher detergent must always be stored out of

reach of children, as it is highly toxic.

• Make sure that dishwasher detergent does not

come into contact with the eyes or skin.

• Never use solvents or thinners in the appliance, as

these can cause explosions or fire.

• Do not allow persons or heavy objects to rest on the

door when it is open. This can cause the door and
hinges to become deformed and cease functioning
correctly.

Positioning the appliance
• Always place the appliance on a dry, level, firm and

heat-resistant surface well away from the edges.

• Do not place the appliance or the cord near hot

areas, for example gas rings and electric hotplates.

• The back of the appliance must be supported by a

rear wall.

Connection
• For connection to 230 V, 50 Hz only. The guarantee

is not valid if the appliance is connected to incorrect
voltage.

The appliance should only be connected to

sockets with a functioning earth circuit that is

suitable for the mains plug.

Position the appliance so that the cord can easily

reach the socket without being in the way or

posing a safety hazard.

• In normal circumstances the appliance can be

connected to both hot and cold water supply. If the
hot water supply temperature cannot be kept below
60 ºC, the appliance must be connected to the cold
water supply instead.

Use
• Do not place objects on top of the appliance while

in use.

• Do not use the appliance if the cable or plug are

damaged, if it is not functioning properly, or if it has
been damaged by a heavy impact or similar.

• Avoid using the dishwasher to wash kitchen

equipment that is not heat-resistant. Also avoid
washing delicate objects, such as crystal glasses,
and objects made from copper, tin and aluminium in

the dishwasher, as these can become damaged.

• Never insert anything into any of the holes in the

appliance.

• If the door is left open, you may be exposed to

hot steam. Water damage may also occur. Keep

children away from the appliance when the door is
opened.

Cord and plug
• Do not let the cord hang out over the edge of the

work surface.

• Check that it is not possible to pull or trip over the

cord of the appliance.

• Keep the cord and appliance away from heat

sources, hot objects and naked flames, including
