shared facilities or commercial facilities within hotels, motels or bed
& breakfasts.  This dishwasher is not suitable for outdoor use.
 It

							Warning and Safety instructions
10Safety with children
 Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
 Older childr

en may only use the appliance when its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely, rec‐
ognising the dangers of misuse.  Clean
ing work may only be carried out by older children under the
supervision of an adult.  Chil
dren should be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance. Keep small children away from the appliance at
all times to avoid the risk of injury. There is the risk that children may
lock themselves in the dishwasher.  If 
the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on model)
is active, keep young children away from the area in which the door
opens. Danger of injury in the unlikely event of a fault with the open‐
ing mechanism.  Dange
r of suffocation! Children may be able to wrap themselves
in packing material or pull it over their heads with the risk of suffoca‐

tremely dangerous if swallowed, and can cause burning in the
mouth, nose and throat, or inhibit breathing. Avoid contact with the
skin and eyes. Keep children away from the dishwasher when the
door is open. There could still be detergent residues in the cabinet
