Safety Information - Electrolux ESF 245 Instruction Book

Safety information

Before installing and first using the dishwasher, read this instruction booklet carefully, including its
hints and warnings. To avoid unnecessary mistakes and accidents, it is important to ensure that all
people using the dishwasher are thoroughly familiar with its operation and safety features.
Save these instructions and make sure they remain with the dishwasher if it is moved or sold, so
that everyone using it through its life can be properly informed on appliance use and safety.
Installation and servicing
Installation must be carried out by persons with the
necessary knowledge and experience of water and
drainage connections in accordance with the instruc-
tions in these directions for use and installation.
The power cord must be plugged into an earthed socket.
Permanent installation must only be carried out by an
authorized electrician.
Water connection shall be made via an easily accessible
stopcock.
Before performing any checks or repairs on the machine
it must be isolated from the electrical supply. To do this
the power plug must be removed from the wall socket.
Make sure that the power cord is not nipped or otherwise
damaged and that the hoses do not get crushed or
kinked when moving the dishwasher in connection
with installation or cleaning etc.
Our approved build-in kit must be used if the dishwasher
is to be built into the kitchen furnishings.
Servicing and possible repairs must be carried out by
a service company authorized by the supplier. Use only
spare parts supplied by these. Never try to repair the
dishwasher yourself.
Child Safety
The dishwasher should be used by adults only. Do not
let children play with the controls or other parts of it.
Remember that the plastic bags included in the
packaging can be fatal playthings for small children.
Keep all detergents in safe place out of children´s
reach.
Prevent children from sitting, swinging or standing
on the open door.
During Use
This dishwasher is designed solely for washing house-
hold utensils suitable for machine washing. Using it for
other purposes could lead to physical injury or damage
to property and invalidate the guarantee.
Avoid opening the door while the dishwasher is running,
as hot steam may escape.
Only use detergent specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
Do not place sharp knives with their points upwards.
It is much safer to lay them horizontally in the basket.
If you take any dishes out of the machine before the
end of the dishwashing cycle, it is extremely important
to rinse them thoroughly under running water to remove
any remaining detergent.
After using the machine, turn off its water supply and
disconnect it from the power supply. When removing
the electrical plug, grip the plug, not the lead.
In the event of flooding or leakage, shut off the water
supply immediately by closing the stopcock and dis-
connect the power supply by unplugging the power cord
or removing the fuse.
