Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. There is a danger of
explosion.

Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Some dishwasher
detergents are strongly alkaline and contain irritants or corrosive
ingredients. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed, and can
cause burning in the eyes, nose, mouth, and throat, or inhibit
breathing. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Do not inhale
powder detergents. Do not swallow dishwasher detergents. Seek
medical advice immediately if detergent has been swallowed or
inhaled. Contact a Poisons Information Centre (Australia) or the
National Poisons Centre (NZ).

Avoid leaving the dishwasher door open unnecessarily. You could
injure yourself on the open door or trip over it.

Do not sit, stand, or lean on the open door. The dishwasher could
tip over. This could injure you or damage the dishwasher.

Dishes may be very hot at the end of the programme. Allow the
dishes to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before
unloading them.

Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic
dishwashers. Do not use washing-up liquid.

Do not use any commercial or industrial detergents. These may
cause material damage, and there is a risk of a severe explosive
chemical reaction (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 rinse aid reservoir.

Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
Dishwasher detergent will damage the water softener.
