KEN DW 412
Subject to alterations
This machine range has been designed in accordance with the prevailing
EU directives. A list of these directives is given on the EU Declaration of
conformity, section 14.
Wherever this manual explains matters that may be of danger to the
staff or others, this icon will be found against the section in question.
This machine range uses electricity, hot water and chemicals for the
cleaning process. In addition to the directives mentioned above, the design
of the machine also ensures that the daily user is not exposed to any danger
if the machine is used normally - or, indeed, if it is used inappropriately.
Below follows a list of situations where danger may arise if the machine is
not used in accordance with the instructions:
Scalding:
The machine offers protection against scalding if the door is opened
unintentionally.
Chemicals/caustic effect:
NB! When chemical canisters are exchanged, precautions must
always be taken against chemicals getting sprayed into eyes or on
skin, protective glasses must be used together with gloves.
In addition, the instructions from the chemical supplier must be
complied with at all times.
Electrical shock:
All live components that may represent a danger are placed behind screens
that can only be removed by the use of tools.
NB! These screens must only be removed by specially trained
technical staff.
Inhalation of vapours:
If generally recognized chemicals are used for washer/disinfectors, there
will normally be no health problems involved in using the machine.
NB! If chemicals are used for which the manufacturer or the health
authorities state that inhaling the vapours in question may involve a
danger, a direct exhaust system must be established from the
machine, or, if this is not possible, from the room, near the machine.
