Safety instructions
The safety of AEG electrical appliances conforms to accepted rules of technology and the Appliance Safety Act. We as manufacturers, however, see ourselves as being obliged to familiarise you with the following safety instructions.
Using your dishwasher for its intended purpose
●Only use your dishwasher for machine washing of household crockery. If your machine is misused or used for any purposes other than that for which it is intended, the manufacturer cannot be held liable for any damage caused.
●For safety reasons, you should not convert or modify your dishwasher in any way.
Before using your dishwasher for the first time
●Check your dishwasher for any transport damage. Never connect a damaged machine. If your dishwasher is damaged, you should contact your supplier.
●Your dishwasher must be correctly installed and connected. Please read the section on "Installation" to make sure you know all about this.
●Before using your dishwasher for the first time, do not forget that the nominal voltage and current type indicated on the rating plate of your machine must be the same as the nominal voltage and current type at the installation site. The necessary electrical fusing is also given on the rating plate.
Child safety
●Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for children,who could even be suffocated! You should therefore keep all packaging well away from children.
●Children may not recognise the dangers of improper use of electrical appliances. You should therefore ensure proper supervision during operation and not allow your children to play with your dishwasher.
●Detergents may have a caustic effect on eyes, mouth and throat and may even cause suffocation! Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s reach.
●The water in your dishwasher should not be used for drinking. Detergent residues may still be present in your machine. Make sure you do not splash these caustic residues onto your skin or suffocate yourself! Keep children well away from your dishwasher when its door is open.
4
Your dishwasher in day-to-day use
●Never operate your dishwasher if the electrical supply lead, supply or drainhose, control panel, worktop or plinth are damaged.
●If there is a fault, first turn the water tap off. Then switch off your machine and pull the plug out of the socket. If there is a fixed connection, switch off or unscrew the fuse(s).
●Never pull the plug out of the socket by the cable - always hold the plug.
●Dishwasher repairs should only be performed by trained personnel.
Improper repairs may seriously endanger the user. If your dishwasher needs to be repaired, you should contact our service centre or your retailer.
●Never place any solvents in your dishwasher or you may cause an explosion!
●Do not rest or sit on the open door as the machine could tilt.
●Before using special dishwasher salt, detergent or rinse-aid, make sure that the manufacturer of these products expressly specifies their use in domestic dishwashers.
●Always turn off the water tap when your dishwasher is left unattended for any length of time, e.g. when you are away on holiday.
●Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position. Tipping it upside down during transport could cause salty water to leak into the internal compartment and lead to the formation of rust.

Disposing of packaging and old machines
Disposing of the packaging
Our dishwashers require effective protective packaging in transit, though we always confine ourselves to what is absolutely necessary.
Warning! Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for children and can cause suffocation. You should therefore keep all packaging well away from children.
All packaging materials used are environmentally compatible and reusable.
The cardboard parts are produced from recycled paper, and the wood is untreated.
The plastics are marked as follows:
>PE< |
for polyethylene, e.g. packaging foils. |
>PS< |
for polystyrene, e.g. padding (essentially CFC-Free). |
>POM< |
for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clamps. |
Give the packaging for reuse to your local recycling centre. Your municipal or local authority will give you its address.
Disposing of your old machine
When your machine finally reaches the end of its life and you withdraw it from service, you should render it unserviceable before having it disposed of.
Warning! Children at play could lock themselves in your machine (and suffocate) or otherwise endanger their lives. Therefore pull out the main plug and detach and discard the electrical supply lead. Disable the door lock so that the door no longer closes.
Marking of plastic parts for graded recycling: all plastic parts in your machine are marked with internationally standardised abbreviations (e.g. <PS> for polystyrene). When your machine is disposed of, this enables plastic waste to be sorted into individual types for environmentally conscious recycling.
Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area for recycling the appliance.

Economical and ecological dishwashing
●Ensure that the water softener is correctly adjusted.
●Do not pre-rinse under running water.
●Select the wash programme to suit the nature and degree of the soiling on the dishes.
●Do not use more detergent, special salt or rinse aid than is recommended in these operating instructions and by the manufacturer of the respective product.

Audible signals have been introduced to help indicate which operations the dishwasher is performing.
"Instruction accepted" audible signal
When any of the push buttons are pressed, an audible signal informs you that the machine has accepted the instruction given.
"Programme run" audible signal
An audible signal informs you that the washing programme is starting.
"End of programme" audible signal
An intermittent audible signal informs you that the wash programme has ended.
"Alarm" audible signal
The machine is fitted with a number of alarm systems to help you determine the cause of any problems (see "What to do, if...).
An audible signal informs you that an alarm is activated.
To deactivate these audible signals, press simultaneously "Intensive 70°" and "Normal 65°" push buttons, after about 3 seconds an audible signal informs you that the audible signals have been deactivated.
SO291
To reactivate these audible signals, press simultaneously "Intensive 70°" and "Normal 65°" push buttons, after about 3 seconds an audible signal informs you that the audible signals have been reactivated.
Both operations (to deactivate or reactivate the audible signals) must be carried out before starting a washing programme; the setting will remain memorised after switching off the dishwasher.

Before using your dishwasher for the first time
1.Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions.
2.Remove all packaging from inside the appliance.
3.Set the water softener.
4.Pour a litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with salt.
5.Fill the rinse-aid dispenser.
Setting the water hardness range
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at level 3.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted.
You may change the factory level setting by means of the wash programme selector push buttons. Each button corresponds to a different level.

If your water hardness is level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt. With the setting of the water softener at level 1 the salt indicator light on the control panel will always remain off.
To set a different level, proceed as follows:
1.Press the "Intensive 70°" and "Bio 50°" programme push buttons simultaneously for about 5 seconds. The pilot light corresponding to the current level flashes.
2.Press within 5 seconds the programme push button corresponding to the required level. After 5 seconds the dishwasher will memorise the new level setting and will return to programme setting mode.
The setting will remain memorised after switching off the dishwasher.

Filling with special salt
Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really is salt.
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes (not the "Rinse and hold" programme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1.To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container.
2.Pour a litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time).
3.Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is full.
Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

When this has been done, all that is required is to periodically top up the container with salt.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which will illuminate when the salt has finished.
Important!
The salt refill indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after salt has been replenished, assuring the dishwasher remains on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer. the function of the
dishwasher is not affected.
