= Use only detergents or rinse aids recommended
for use in a household dishwasher and keep them in a dry place out of the reach of children. Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after the completion of each wash program.
= Dishwasher detergents are alkaline. They can
be dangerous if inhaled or swallowed. Avoid contact with skin and eyes, keep children and infirm persons away from the dishwasher when the door is opened. Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
= Do not drink water from the dishwasher! Harmful

Hydrogen gas is explosive. If the hot water system has not been used for such period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot water taps and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
