Safety information
Before connecting the appliance, check that the connection data on the data plate (voltage
and connected load) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete
between it and an effective grounding system. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and regularly tested and where there is any doubt the electrical
system in the house should be checked by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate grounding
system (for example electric shock).
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an
extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (for example
danger of overheating).
This appliance may only be installed in mobile installations such as ships if a risk
assessment of the installation has been carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical component. The housing
must not be submerged in water.
There are electrical wires in the hose of Aqua-Stop. Never cut the water inlet hose, even if
it is too long.
Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by a suitably qualified and
competent person in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons can be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot
be held liable for unauthorised work.
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 / supply valve has been turned off when the appliance is not used for a
longer period of time (for example 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).
