z
Care should be taken when the appliance is installed or removed to reduce the
likelihood of damage to the power supply cord and hoses.
z
If the dishwasher is to be relocated from one installation to another it must be kept
upright to avoid damage from water spillage.
z
Make sure only new hoses are used for connection (supplied with the dishwasher). Old
hoses should not be reused.
