Safety instructions
The integrated waterproof system offers protection from water damage, provided the following
conditions are met:
• The dishwasher is correctly installed and plumbed in.
• The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced where it can be seen that this is
necessary.
• The stopcock has been turned off when the appliance is not used for a longer period of time (e.g.
during holidays).
• The waterproof system will work even if the appliance is switched off. However, the appliance must
remain connected to the electricity supply.
A damaged appliance can be dangerous. If the dishwasher gets damaged, switch it off at the mains
and call your dealer or the service department.
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which the manufacturer
cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by an approved service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can
the safety of the appliance can be guaranteed.
Always disconnect the dishwasher from the electrical supply for maintenance work (switch off at the
wall socket and remove the plug).
If the connection cable is damaged it must be replaced with a special cable, available from the
manufacturer. For safety reasons, this must only be fitted by the service department or an authorised
service technician.
