Safe installation
ATTENTION!
¡
Improper installation of the appli-
ance may cause damage.
▶
If the dishwasher is installed
above or below other domestic
appliances, follow the informa-
tion on installation in combina-
tion with a dishwasher in the in-
stallation instructions for the in-
dividual appliances.
▶
If there is no information or if the
installation instructions do not in-
clude the relevant information,
contact the manufacturer of
these appliances to check that
the dishwasher can be installed
above or below these appli-
ances.
▶
If no information is available
from the manufacturer, the dish-
washer should not be installed
above or below such appli-
ances.
▶
To ensure the safe operation of
all domestic appliances, con-
tinue following the installation in-
structions for the dishwasher.
▶
Do not install the dishwasher un-
der a hob.
▶
Do not install the dishwasher
near heat sources, e.g. radiat-
ors, heat storage tanks, ovens
or other appliances that gener-
ate heat.
¡
Contact between the appliance
and water pipes may lead to corro-
sion of these pipes, possibly caus-
ing them to leak.
▶
Check that there is a distance of
at least 5 cm between the appli-
ance and the water pipe. The
pipes supplied for the drinking
water and waste water connec-
tions are not affected here.
¡
Modified or damaged water hoses
may result in material damage and
damage to the appliance.
▶
Never kink, crush, modify or cut
through water hoses.
▶
Only use the water hoses sup-
plied with the appliance or genu-
ine spare hoses.
▶
Never re-use water hoses that
have been used before.
¡
If the water pressure is too high or
too low, the appliance may not be
able to operate properly.
▶
Make sure that the water pres-
sure in the water supply system
is min. 50 kPa (0.5 bar) and
max. 1000 kPa (10 bar).
▶
If the water pressure exceeds
the maximum value specified, a
pressure-reducing valve must be
installed between the drinking
water connection and the hose
set of the appliance.
Safe use
ATTENTION!
¡
Escaping water vapour can dam-
age fitted units.
▶
When the programme ends,
leave the appliance to cool
down for a while before opening
the door.
¡
Special salt for dishwashers can
damage the tub due to corrosion.
▶
To make sure that any special
salt that escapes is washed out
of the tub, add the special salt
to the dispenser for special salt
immediately before the pro-
gramme starts.
¡
Detergent may damage the water
softening system.
▶
Only fill the dispenser of the wa-
ter softening system with special
dishwasher salt.
