[. . . ] NOTE: To avoid accident and damage, please read these instructions carefully before operating the appliance. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING ­ When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following: a) Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. B) Use the dishwasher only for its intended function. C) Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of the reach of children. [. . . ] The rinse-aid compartment is inside the door, next to the detergent. The compartment has a 4 position dispenser to adjust the quantity of rinse-aid depending on the water quality (the dispenser leaves the factory in position 2). If drops of water can be seen on the dishes, increase the number on the rinse-aid dispenser. If the dishes have white or sticky lines, reduce the number. Once the level of the dispenser has been set, fill the compartment to the top, without overflowing. If it does overflow, clean the extra off with a cloth. The dishes will not be cleaner by adding more rinse-aid. The dishwasher itself will tell you when you need to top up the rinse-aid. Depending on the model, there are two types of indicator: window or pilot light. If the window shows a clear background, a top-up is required. If the background is dark, there is enough rinse-aid. The detergent is poured into a compartment inside the door, next to the rinseaid compartment. A light on the front of the dishwasher shows when rinse-aid must be topped up. Once the detergent has been poured in, close the compartment cover. Some programs also require part of the dose to be put in the slot in the compartment cover. Only sanitizing cycles (2, 3, 4) have been designed to meet requirements for sanitization efficacy. Using excessive quantities of detergent and rinse-aid does not improve washing results and besides costing you more, it has a negative effect on the environmental. Types of utensils Not all dishes can be used in a dishwasher. It is not advisable to put in wooden or clay utensils, or non heat resistant plastic. Stainless steel cutlery can be washed easily although make sure it does not come into contact with silver cutlery as this can stain. The pictures on decorated porcelain could be worn away if it is not good quality. I M P O R TA N T Make sure that the utensils can be used in a dishwasher. [. . . ] The dishwasher must be cleaned every three months to eliminate the built-up dirt inside the To clean the outside, use a damp cloth with soapy water. Use non abrasive products which do not scour. I M P O R TA N T For safety reasons, check that the machine is not in operation during the cleaning. When the dishwasher detects a dysfunction, it will display this with sounds or visual signals, depending on the model. [. . . ]
