Warning and safety instructions
14
Crockery 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 dish-
washers. 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 damage to the reservoir.
Do not fill the AutoDos (depending on model) with powder or li-
quid detergent. Loose detergent will damage the AutoDos.
Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. Deter-
gent will damage the water softener.
Only use special coarse-grained dishwasher salt or other pure kit-
chen salt for reactivation. Other salts may contain insoluble additives
that can impair the functioning of the water softener.
In dishwashers with a cutlery basket (depending on model), knives
and forks should be placed with the handles upwards in the basket
for safety reasons. Knives and forks placed with the handles down-
wards pose a danger of injury. However, cutlery placed handle down
in the basket will come out cleaner and drier.
Plastic items that cannot withstand being washed in hot water,
such as disposable plastic containers or plastic cutlery, should not
be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dish-
washer may cause them to melt or lose shape.
If you use the timer option (depending on model), the detergent
compartment must be dry. If it is not, wipe it until dry. The detergent
will clump together if the detergent compartment is not dry, and this
may mean that it is not fully rinsed out.
