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
• Offices and showrooms
and by residents in establishments such as:
• Hostels and guest houses.
It must only be used as an appliance as specified in this 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 any strong acid cleaning agent.
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious
damage to the reservoir.
Inadvertently filling 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 filling 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 efficiently 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.
