Indesit IDL 600 Manual page 22

 The appliance was designed and manufactured in
compliance with current international safety
standards. The following information has been
provided for safety reasons and should therefore be
read carefully.
• The appliance was designed for domestic use
inside the home and is not intended for commercial
or industrial use.
• The appliance must be used by adults only, to
wash domestic crockery according to the
instructions in this manual.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even
in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to
leave the machine exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the
plug from the mains socket, do not pull on the
cable.
• The water supply tap must be shut off and the plug
should be removed from the electrical socket
before cleaning the appliance or carrying out any
maintenance work.
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any
circumstances touch the internal parts in an
attempt to carry out the repair work yourself.
• Never touch the heating element.
• Do not lean or sit on the open door of the
appliance: this may cause the appliance to
overturn.
• Keep detergent and rinse aid out of reach of
children.
• The packaging material should not be used as a
toy: it can become a choking or suffocation hazard.
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires
that old household electrical appliances must not be
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the
materials they contain and reduce the impact on
human health and the environment. The crossed out
"wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of
your obligation, that when you dispose of the
appliance it must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal
of their old appliance.
• Only start a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full.
While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled,
prevent unpleasant odours with the Soak cycle
( see Wash Cycles ).
• Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of
crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using
the Wash cycle table :
- for dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco
wash cycle, which guarantees low energy and
water consumption levels.
- if the load is smaller than usual activate the Half
load option ( see Start-up and use ).
• If your electricity supply contract gives details of
electricity saving time bands, run wash cycles
during the periods when a lower tariff is applied.
The Delayed start* button ( see Start-up and use )
helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly.
• We strongly recommend that you use detergents
that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as
these products are harmful to the environment.
• Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at
temperatures around 50°C, and as a result
detergents containing enzymes can be used in
conjunction with low-temperature wash cycles in
order to achieve the same results as a normal 65°C
wash cycle.
• To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in
appropriate quantities based on the manufacturer's
recommendations, the hardness of the water and
the soil level and quantity of the crockery. Even if
they are biodegradable, detergents contain
substances that may alter the balance of nature.
