Check that the detergent dispenser
is empty after the completion of each
wash program.
•
Dishwasher detergents are alkaline.
They can be dangerous if inhaled or
swallowed. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes and keep children and infirm
persons away from the dishwasher
when the door is opened. Consult a
doctor immediately if detergent has
been swallowed or inhaled.
•
Do not drink water from the
dishwasher! Harmful residues could be
present.
•
Under certain conditions hydrogen gas
may be produced in a hot water heater
system that has not been used for
two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is
explosive. If the hot water system has
not been used for such period, before
using the dishwasher turn on all hot
water taps and let the water flow from
each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen
gas. As gas is flammable, do not smoke
or use an open flame during this time.
•
Do not store or use flammable
liquids or vapors in the area of the
dishwasher.
•
When loading items to be washed,
position sharp items so that they are
not likely to damage the door seal and
load sharp knives with the handles up
to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
•
Do not wash plastic items unless they
are marked “dishwasher safe” or the
equivalent. For plastic items not so
marked, check the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
•
If a malfunction occurs, switch off
the appliance and turn off the water
supply to the dishwasher.
•
Please do not attempt to carry the
dishwasher by yourself in order
to avoid potential injuries. Two or
more people are needed to move a
dishwasher.
•
Before cleaning or carrying out
maintenance, switch off the appliance,
disconnect the power plug and turn
off the water supply.
•
Repairs and technical modifications
must be carried out exclusively by a
qualified technician.
•
If the dishwasher is not in use for an
extended period of time (i.e. vacation
home), we recommend you check
that the baskets are empty, leave the
inside of the dishwasher clean, leave
the door cracked open to allow air to
circulate and turn off both the power
and water supply to the dishwasher.
•
This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electric shock by providing
a path of least resistance for electric
current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is installed and
grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
•
Potential hazards exist if any
equipment uses electricity, water and
moving parts.
•
This appliance must be connected to
a grounded metal, permanent wiring
system, or an equipment-grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead
on the appliance.
•
This appliance produces ozone within
the washing compartment during
normal operation. Long-term exposure
to ozone or exposure at elevated levels
may result in respiratory problems,
