INSTRUCTIONS WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER
This dishwasher is not designed for commercial use. It is intended for use in domestic households and
in similar working and residential environments such as:
• Shops
• Offi ces and showrooms
and by residents in establishments such as:
• Hostels and guest houses.
It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specifi ed in these user manual, for cleaning domestic
crockery and cutlery.
Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or
operation.
Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion.
Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant or corrosive
ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing.
Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over it.
Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dishwasher to tip and be damaged, and
you could get injured.
Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use washing‐up liquid.
Do not use the strong acid cleaning agent.
Do not fi ll the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious damage to the
reservoir.
Inadvertently fi lling the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dishwasher detergent will damage the water
softener. Make sure you have picked up the correct packet of dishwasher salt before fi lling the salt
reservoir.
Please only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, as other salts may contain
insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the softener.
In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cutlery is cleaned and dried more if placed
in effi ciently the basket with the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place knives
and forks etc. with the handles upwards.
Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water, such as disposable plastic
containers, or plastic cutlery and crockery should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.
On models with
Delay Start
function, make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent.
Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dispenser and may not be thoroughly
dispersed.
Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points down or
placed in a horizontal position.
