The dishwasher meets the requirements set out by

the regulations in force concerning safety and electrical
equipment.

Any technical checks should be conducted

exclusively by a trained and authorised technician:

Repairs carried out by unaithorised persons will

invalidate the guarantee, as well as posing a potential
hazard to the user.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility for

damage to persons or property resulting from failure to

observe the above precautions, from tampering with

even a single component or from the use of non-original
spare parts.

Electrical Connection

Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make
sure that:

• the socket is earthed and complies with current

regulations;

• the socket can withstand the maximum load of the

appliance, which is indicated on the data plate

located on the inside of the door (see Description of
the appliance);

• the power supply voltage falls within the values

indicated on the data plate on the inside of the door;

• the socket is compatible with the plug of the

appliance. If this is not the case, ask an authorised

technician to replace the plug (see After Sales

Service); do not use extension cables or multiple
sockets.

Once the appliance has been installed, the power

supply cable and the electrical socket should be easily
accessible.

The cable should not be bent or compressed.

If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be

replaced by the manufacturer or its Technical

Assistance Service in order to prevent all potential
hazards. (See After Sales Service)
