The appliance was designed and manufactured in
compliance with current international safety standards. The
following information has been provided for safety reasons
and should therefore be read carefully.
General safety
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
The appliance must be used by adults only, to wash
domestic crockery according to the instructions in this
manual.
The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the
machine exposed to rain and storms.
Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.
When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from
the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.
The water supply tap must be shut off and the plug should
be removed from the electrical socket before cleaning the
appliance or carrying out any maintenance work.
If the appliance breaks down, do not under any
circumstances touch the internal parts in an attempt to
carry out the repair work yourself.
Never touch the heating element.
Do not lean or sit on the open door of the appliance: this
may cause the appliance to overturn.
The door should not be left open as it may create a
dangerous obstacle.
The packaging material should not be used as a toy: it can
become a choking or suffocation hazard.
If your family includes children:
DO NOT allow children to play with the appliance or tamper
with its controls.
Keep detergents and rinse aids away from children.
Keep children away from the open door of a dishwasher,
there could still be some detergent left inside.
Disposal of old electrical appliances
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household
electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal
unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be
collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact
on human health and the environment. The crossed out
"wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your
obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be
separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for
information concerning the correct disposal of their old
appliance.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
Saving water and energy
Only start a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full. While
waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent unpleasant
odours with the Soak cycle (
see Wash Cycles
).
Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of crockery
and to the soil level of the crockery using the
Wash cycle
table
:
- for dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco wash
cycle, which guarantees low energy and water
consumption levels.
- if the load is smaller than usual activate the Half load
*
option (
see Start-up and use
).
If your electricity supply contract gives details of electricity
saving time bands, run wash cycles during the periods
when a lower tariff is applied. The Delayed start
*
button
(
see Start-up and use
) helps you organise the wash
cycles accordingly.
Precautions and advice
*
Only available in selected models.
Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents
containing enzymes
We strongly recommend that you use detergents that do
not contain phosphates or chlorine, as these products are
harmful to the environment.
Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at
temperatures around 50°C, and as a result detergents
containing enzymes can be used in conjunction with low-
temperature wash cycles in order to achieve the same
results as a normal 65°C wash cycle.
To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in
appropriate quantities based on the manufacturers
recommendations, the hardness of the water and the soil
level and quantity of the crockery. Even if they are
biodegradable, detergents contain substances that may
alter the balance of nature.
Recycling & Disposal Information
As part of Hotpoint's continued commitment to helping the
environment, Hotpoint reserves the right to use quality
recycled components to keep down customer costs and
minimise material wastage.
Please dispose of packaging and old appliances carefully.
To minimise risk of injury to children, remove the door, plug
and cut mains cable off flush with the appliance. Dispose of
these parts separately to ensure that the appliance can no
longer be plugged into a mains socket and the door cannot be
locked shut.
