General safety
WARNING!
• Installation and repair must only be carried out by a qualified technician.
• Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes and keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open.
• If an overflow occurs, turn off the main water supply before calling for service.
• If there is water in the base of the dishwasher due to overfilling or a small leak, the water should be
removed before restarting the dishwasher.
• Do not place any heavy objects on, or stand on, the door when it is open. The product could tip forward.
WARNING!

WARNING!
Risk of electric shock!
• Disconnect electrical power before installing the dishwasher. Failure to do so could result in death or
electrical shock.
• Do not immerse the unit, power cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
• This product must be earthed. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk of
an electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This product is equipped with
a plug with an earthing conductor.
CAUTION!
• Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items
that do not have this marking, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Use only detergent and rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher.
• Never use soap, laundry detergent, or hand washing detergent in your dishwasher.
• Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.
• Do not tamper with the controls when loading items to be washed.
Safety during installation

Risk for electric shock!
• Disconnect electrical power before installing the product. Failure to do so could result in death or
electrical shock.
• The plug must be plugged into an appropriate power socket that is installed and earthed in accordance
with all local laws and regulations.
• Improper connection of the earthing conductor can result in the risk of an electric shock.
• Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the product is
properly earthed.
• Do not modify the plug provided with the product if it does not fit the power socket.
• Have a proper power socket installed by a qualified electrician.
• Ensure the dishwasher is correctly earthed before use.
• Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug with this product.
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the earthing connection from the power cord.
• Take care to avoid kinking or crushing the power cord.

Safety - ENGLISH 7
CAUTION!
• The inlet water pressure must be between 0.04MPa and 1MPa.
• The product must be connected to the water supply using new hoses. Do not reuse old hoses.
• If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to
make sure that the water is clear. This precaution is necessary to avoid the risk of the water inlet
becoming blocked and damaging the product.
• If your sink has a spray jet fed by a hose that is connected to the same water line as the dishwasher the
safety supply hose could burst. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the safety supply hose is
disconnected and the hole plugged.
CAUTION!
The product must not be tilted more than 2°.
Safety during operation
WARNING!
Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
WARNING!
• Do not let any item stick through the basket bottom.
• Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points facing down or
placed in a horizontal position.
WARNING!
Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children. Dishwasher detergent is corrosive.
WARNING!
• It is dangerous to open the door mid-cycle, as hot steam may scald you.
• Open the door very carefully if the dishwasher is operating. There is a risk of water squirting out.
• When removing dishes items will be hot. Wait 15 minutes after the programme has ended before
removing glass or cutlery.
CAUTION!
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make
sure that the water is clear. This precaution is necessary to avoid the risk of the water inlet becoming blocked
and damaging the product.
CAUTION!
• Only use detergent that is specifically intended for dishwasher use. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
• Do not put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash dishes.
• Only use branded rinse aid that is formulated for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any
other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the product.
• Only use salt specifically designed for dishwasher use. Any other type of salt that is not specifically
designed for dishwasher use, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. The manufacturer’s
warranty does not cover any damage that results from the use of unsuitable salt.
• Only fill with salt before running a cycle. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water that may have
been spilled from remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause
corrosion.
CAUTION!
• When cleaning the filters, do not over-tighten the filters. Refit the filters securely in the correct order,
otherwise coarse debris could get into the system and cause a blockage.
• Never use the dishwasher without the filters in place. Incorrect replacement of the filters may reduce the
performance of the product and damage dishes and utensils.

8 Safety - ENGLISH

that you use the machine for household purposes and follow the instructions in this manual.
Safety during maintenance
WARNING!
• Installation and repair must only be carried out by a qualified technician.
• Any repair performed by someone who is not a qualified technician puts the users of the product at risk
of personal injury.
• Any warranty claim resulting from repairs performed by someone who is not a qualified technician shall
not be covered by the warranty.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s service agent
or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
WARNING!
Disconnect the product from the mains before cleaning and carrying out maintenance on the product.
CAUTION!
• To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of
any kind.
• Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products to clean the exterior and rubber parts of the
dishwasher.
• Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces, as they may scratch the finish.
Some paper towels may also scratch or leave marks on the surface.
CAUTION!
• When cleaning the filters, do not over-tighten the filters. Refit the filters securely in the correct order,
otherwise coarse debris could get into the system and cause a blockage.
• Never use the dishwasher without the filters in place. Incorrect replacement of the filters may reduce the
performance of the product and damage dishes and utensils.
