8DO NOT operate the unit without uid in the tank. Always ensure the uid is no higher than the max mark, Always ensure there is a
minimum depth of 7cm.
8DO NOT drop any item into the tank as this may cause damage to the transducer. Always place the items gently into the tank and
use the basket whenever possible.
9 The more items that you place in your cleaning bath the less e󰀩ciently it will clean. It is not advised to overlap items. Always allow
plenty of clear space between the items.
9 Keep the lid on during use. This will prevent splashes and reduce evaporation of the uid.
8Never immerse the machine or power cord in water or other liquid.
