1. Please ensure the dishwasher is installed
by a qualified technician. Refer to the tools
required (not included).
location
When selecting a position for your dishwasher
you should make sure the installation surface
is flat and firm, and the room is well ventilated.
Avoid locating your dishwasher near a heat
source, eg. cooker, boiler or radiator. Extreme
cold ambient temperatures may also cause
the appliance to not perform properly. This
dishwasher is not designed for use in a garage
or outdoor installation.
2. Ensure there is sufficient clearance on
each side of the unit to allow slight sideways
movement for servicing when required.
Good levelling is essential for correct closure
and sealing of the door. When the unit is
correctly levelled, the door should not catch
the inner liner on either side of the cabinet.
The adjustable feet may be loosened or
tightened in order to obtain the optimum
levelling of the unit.
All parts removed must be saved to do
the reinstallation in the future. Ensure the
dishwasher is unplugged and empty.
We recommend that 2 people handle
the dishwasher during installation.
The supplied door template contains
installation information which will
assist installation.

before operating
opening the door
• Pull the door handle.
• If the door is opened during operation, first open the door slightly to avoid water spillage.
• Wooden cutlery and crockery or items with wooden parts may discolour and fade. The glue used
in these items is not dishwasher-proof and wooden handles may come loose after being washed
in a dishwasher.
• Craft items, antiques, valuable vases and decorative glassware are also not suitable for dishwashers.
• Plastic items (e.g. tupperware) which are not heat resistant may melt or loose shape due to the
high temperature in the dishwasher.
• Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items may discolour or become matt.
• Clouding may occur on glasses and delicate glassware after frequent washing. Do not wash
delicate glassware or glassware containing lead crystal, in a dishwasher. Wash delicate
glassware by hand instead.
• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing. Residues like egg
white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore, please
clean the residues from silver immediately after use.
