Operating Instructions
1 Safety
Prior to using for the first time
Follow the ”Instructions for installation and con- nection”.
Correct Use
The dishwasher is only intended for washing do­mestic dishes.
Additions or modifications to the dishwasher are not permitted.
Use only special salt, detergent and rinse aid suita­ble for domestic dishwashers.
Do not put any solvents in the dishwasher. This could cause an explosion.
Child Safety
Keep packaging away from children. There is a risk of suffocation.
Children often do not recognise the hazards asso­ciated with electrical appliances. Don’t allow chil­dren to use the dishwasher unsupervised.
Make sure that children and pets don’t climb into the dishwasher. Could endanger life!
Dishwasher detergents can cause chemical burns to the eyes, mouth and throat. Could endanger life! Comply with the safety instructions of the dish­washer detergent manufacturer.
The water in the dishwasher is not for drinking. Risk of chemical burns.
General Safety
Repairs to the dishwasher are only to be carried out by qualified/authorised service engineers.
When the dishwasher is not being used, switch it off and shut off the water tap.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the ca­ble. Always pull the plug.
Ensure that the door of the dishwasher is always closed when it is not being loaded or unloaded. In this way you will avoid anybody tripping over the open door and hurting themselves.

If the dishwasher is located in a room where there
may be a frost, remove the connection hose from the tap after each use of the dishwasher.

2. Fill up with dishwasher salt
3. Fill up with rinse aid
Setting the Water Softener
The water softener must be set manually and elec­tronically:
3 To avoid scale deposits on the dishes and in
the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft water, i.e. water with a low lime con­tent. The water softener must be set according to the table to the water hardness in the area where you live. Your local water company will be able to give you information about the wa­ter hardness in your area.
The dishwasher must be switched off.
Setting manually:
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.
3. Turn water hardness dial on the left wall of the
dishwasher interior to O or 1 (see table).
7
Setting electronically:
1. Press the ON/OFF button.
3 If indicators for the programme buttons are lit,
a dishwashing cycle is activated. The cycle must be deactivated: Press function buttons 2 and 3 simultaneously for approx. 2 seconds. All additional wash programme button indica­tors will go out.
2. Press function buttons 2 and 3 simultaneously and keep them pressed. The LED indicators for function buttons 1 to 3 will flash.
3. Press function button 1. The LED indicator for function button 1 will flash. The multi-display will indicate the hardness setting.
4. Pressing function button 1 increases the hard- ness setting by 1. (Exception: hardness setting 1 follows hardness setting 10).
5. When the hardness setting is correct, press the ON/OFF button. The hardness setting is now saved.
If the water softener is set electronically to “1”, this switches off the control indicator for dishwasher salt.

Adding dishwasher Salt
To decalcify the water softener, it must be filled up with dishwasher salt. Use only special salt suitable for domestic dishwashers.
If you do not use 3 in1 detergent, fill up with dish­washer salt:
Before using the dishwasher for the first time.When the control indicator for dishwasher salt is il-
luminated on the control panel.
1. Open the door and remove the lower basket.
2. Unscrew the lid on the salt dispenser by turning it
anti-clockwise.
3. Only when using the dishwasher for the first time:
Fill the salt dispenser with water.
4. Place the funnel (supplied) over the dispenser opening. Fill the dispenser with dishwasher salt; the capaci­ty of the dispenser is approx. 1.0-1.5 kg, depend­ing on the size of the grains. Do not overfill the dispenser.
3 If water overflows when filling up with dish-
washer salt, this is completely harmless.
5. Clean away any salt remnants from the dispenser opening.
6. Screw the lid back on in a clockwise direction.
7. Run a dishwashing cycle after filling the salt
dispenser with dishwasher salt. This will wash away salt water and salt crystals that have been spilt.
3 Depending on the size of the salt granules, it
can take several hours for the salt to dissolve in the water and for the control indicator for dishwasher salt to go out.
9
Filling Up with Rinse Aid
Rinse aid causes the rinse water to flow easily from the crockery leaving gleaming dishes and glassware.
If you do not use 3in1 detergent, fill up with rinse aid:
Before using the dishwasher for the first time.When the control indicator for rinse aid is illuminat-
ed on the control panel.
Use only special rinse aid for dishwashers.
1. Open the door. The rinse aid compartment is located on the inside of the dishwasher door.
2. Press the release button on the rinse aid compart­ment.
3. Open the cover.
4. Pour rinse aid in slowly right up to the broken
“max” line; this corresponds to a volume of approx. 140 ml when full.
5. Press the lid shut until it clicks into place.
6. Wipe up any spilt rinse aid with a cloth. Otherwise
there will be too much foam when rinsing.
10
Setting the Amount of Rinse Aid Required
3 Only change the amount dispensed, if smears,
milky spots (reduce the amount) or dried on water spots (increase the amount) can be seen on glasses and dishes. (See section “If dish­washing results are not satisfactory”.) The dosage can be set from 1-6. The dosage is pre-set to “4” in the factory.
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Press the release button on the rinse aid compart-
ment.
3. Open the cover.
4. Set the dosage level.
5. Press the lid shut until it clicks into place.
6. If rinse aid has leaked out, wipe it away with a
cloth.
