Safety and warnings
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Maintenance Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before any cleaning or maintenance.
When disconnecting the appliance pull the plug rather than the power supply cord or junction of
cord to avoid damage.
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in this user guide. We recommend that you contact Customer Care to arrange
service. See your ‘Service and warranty’ booklet for contact details.
Keep the floor around your appliance clean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping.
Keep the area around/underneath your appliance free from the accumulation of combustible
materials, such as lint, paper, rags and chemicals.
Models with a remote control: Do not attempt to recharge, short-circuit, disassemble, heat or
throw the remote control battery into a fire. Dispose of an old battery responsibly, keeping it out
of reach of children.
Operational Under no circumstances should you open the drawer whilst the dishwasher is in operation.
Always press the button to pause and wait until you hear the three additional beeps before
opening the drawer.
The dishwasher must be used with the motor assembly, filter plate, drain filter and spray arm(s) in
place. To identify what these parts are, see drawings in section ‘User maintenance instructions’ of
this user guide.
Take care when loading the drawer not to load dishware items so they prevent the internal lid
from properly sealing with the drawer. Items should be placed so they do not protrude above
and/or forced into the drawer, otherwise a service call may result.
Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children. Children or persons with a
disability which limits their ability to use the appliance, should have a responsible person instruct
them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied that they can then use the appliance without
danger to themselves or their surroundings.
Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children
to play inside, on or with this appliance or any discarded appliance.
If a dishwasher cleaner is used, we would strongly recommend a wash program with detergent
should be run immediately afterward, to prevent any damage to the dishwasher.
The dishwasher is designed for washing normal household utensils. Items that are contaminated
by petrol, paint, steel or iron debris, corrosive, acidic or alkaline chemicals are not to be washed in
the dishwasher.
If the dishwasher is not being used for long periods of time, turn the electricity and water supply
to the dishwasher off.
