General safety information

5.1

Operator's duty of care

The dishwashing machine has been constructed based on a risk analysis and after
careful selection of the applicable harmonized standards, as well as additional technical
specifications. It therefore corresponds to the latest technology and is guaranteed to
provide maximum safety.
This level of safety can only be achieved in practice, however, if all the necessary
measures are taken. The operator of the installation has an obligation of care to ensure
that these measures are scheduled, and also to check that they are correctly executed.
Measures to ensure the safe machine operation:
The operator must ensure in particular that ...
... the washing machine is only used in accordance with the regulations.
Should it be used in any other way, damage or danger may occur, for which we accept
no liability (see the chapter on "Use for the Purpose Intended").
... in order to preserve the operational and safety guarantees, whenever required, only
original parts supplied by the manufacturer are used.
the user will lose the right to any possible claims if the appliance is modified using any
parts other than original parts.
... only appropriately qualified and authorized personnel use, maintain, and repair the
installation.
... the relevant personnel is regularly trained in all questions relating to safety at work and
environmental protection and, in particular, that they are familiar with the operating
instructions as well as with the safety information provided in them.
... the installation is only operated in perfect, operationally efficient condition, all
safeguards and cladding panels are installed, and, in particular, that the safety systems
and switch elements are regularly checked for their operational efficiency
... machines accessible only from behind may be operated only with rear panel cladding.
... the required personal protective equipment is made available to maintenance and
repair personnel, and is worn by them.
... a functional test on all safety systems of the machine / installation is carried out during
every regular maintenance.
... the operating instructions are always kept in legible, complete condition at the place
where the installation is installed, and are always at hand.
... any necessary initial tests to parts supplied by sub-suppliers must be carried out.
More detailed information, if required, can be found in the relevant Instructions for Use.
Once the washing machine has been installed, put into service and handed over to the
customer/operator, no modifications (electrical or location modifications, for example)
may be made. Modifications to the cleaning machine, and in particular technical
modifications carried out without the manufacturer's written authorisation, or any
modifications carried out by unauthorised persons, will lead to the complete loss of any
guarantee claims and will invalidate any liability for the product.
.... equipment for optimising energy consumption must not be used to reduce essential
operating temperatures, as set out in DIN 10511,10512 and 10522. If you, the client,
install equipment for optimising energy consumption, any possible reduction in the quality
of the wash and hygiene is your responsibility.
W e reserv e the right to change execution and construction!
