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
• Ofces and showrooms
and by residents in establishments such as:
• Hostels and guest houses.
It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specied in these user manual, for

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.

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 ll the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious
damage to the reservoir.
Inadvertently 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 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 ef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.
