Before connecting the appliance, check that the connection data
on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains
electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
~
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed if
correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is observed and regularly tested and where there is any
doubt the electrical system in the house should be checked by a
qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
~
The appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
~
Do not install the dishwasher in a room where there is a risk of
frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the electronic
control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.
