Technical safety
~
Before setting up the appliance, check it for any externally visible
damage. Under no circumstances should you use a damaged
appliance. It could be dangerous.
~
The dishwasher must only be plugged into the electricity supply
via a suitable switched socket. The electrical socket must be easily
accessible after the dishwasher is installed so that it can be
disconnected from the electricity supply at any time. (See "Electrical
connection").
~
There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher.
Danger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be
pushed up against a plug.
~
The dishwasher must not be installed under a hob. The high
radiant temperatures which are sometimes generated by a hob
could damage the dishwasher. For the same reason it should not be
installed next to open fires or other appliances which give off heat,
such as heaters etc.
~
Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains supply until it has
been fully installed and any adjustment has been made to the door
springs.
