Operating Instructions

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1 Safety Instructions

The safety aspects of AEG electrical appliances comply with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. Nevertheless, as a manufacturer we consider it our obligation to make you aware of the following safety information:

Installation, Connection and Placing into Operation

The dishwasher may only be transported upright.

Check the dishwasher for transport damage. Do not in any circumstances connect an appliance that is damaged. In the case of damage, please contact your supplier.

Prior to placing the appliance in operation, ensure that the nominal voltage and type of supply on the rating plate match that of the supply where the appliance is to be installed. The fuse rating is also to be found on the rating plate.

For information on how to correctly install and connect up your dishwasher, please read the „Installation“ section. Multiway plugs / connectors and extension cables must not be used. This could constitute a safety hazard.

Child Safety

Children often do not recognise the hazards associated with the use of electrical appliances. It is therefore important that you ensure children are adequately supervised and that you do not allow children to play with the dishwasher – there is a risk that children can shut themselves inside the appliance (risk of suffocation!).

Packaging materials (e.g. films, styrofoam) can be dangerous for children. Risk of suffocation! Keep packaging away from children.

Detergents can cause burns to the eyes, mouth, and throat, or even cause choking! Please observe the manufacturer's safety instructions for cleaners and detergents.

The water in your dishwasher is not suitable for drinking. If there are still remnants of detergent in the appliance, there is a risk of burns!

When disposing of the dishwasher: unplug from the mains, cut off and dispose of the mains cable. Break the door lock so that the door no longer shuts.

5

Operating Instructions

General Safety

Repairs to the dishwasher are only to be carried out by qualified service engineers. Improper repairs can give rise to significant hazards for the user. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact customer service or your dealer.

Never place the dishwasher in operation if the mains cable, water inlet or drain hose is damaged; or the control panel, work top or plinth area is damaged such that the inside of the appliance is freely accessible.

If the mains lead is damaged, or is to be replaced for a longer lead, the cable (obtainable from AEG customer service) must be replaced by a service engineer authorised by AEG.

Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable, always pull the plug.

Additions or modifications to the dishwasher are not permitted for safety reasons.

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.

Sharp knives and other item of cutlery with sharp edges must be laid in the upper rack or placed in the cutlery rack with the point facing downwards.

Correct Use

Only wash household dishes using the dishwasher. If the appliance is used for other purposes, or is used incorrectly, the manufacturer cannot accept any liability for any damage caused.

Prior to use, ensure that the manufacturers of the special salt, detergent, and rinse aid employed specifically permit the usage of their products in household dishwashers.

Do not put any solvents in the dishwasher. There is a risk of an explosion!

The anti-flood system provides dependable protection against damage due to leaks. For this system to function correctly, the following preconditions must be met:

The appliance must remain connected to the mains even when it is switched off.

The dishwasher must be correctly installed.

6

Operating Instructions

Always shut off the water supply at the tap when the dishwasher is not to be used for longer periods, e.g. when you are away on holiday.

Do not sit or stand on the open door, the appliance may tip over.

In the event of a fault, first close the tap, then switch off the appliance and unplug it from the mains. If the appliance is permanently wired to the mains: switch off the fuse(s) or unscrew them.

2 Disposal

Disposing of the Packaging Material

Dispose of the dishwasher packaging material correctly. All the packaging materials used are harmless to the environment and can be recycled.

• Plastic parts are marked with standard international abbreviations:

– >PE<

for polyethylene, e.g. sheet wrapping material

– >PS<

for polystyrene, e.g. padding material (always CFC-free)

– >POM<

for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clips

Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper and should be deposited in the waste paper collection for recycling.

Disposal of old appliances

As and when you cease to use your dishwasher, please take it to a recycling centre or to your dealer who will, for a small contribution to the costs, dispose of it for you.

7

Operating Instructions

2Economical and Ecological Dishwashing

Only connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply if your hot water is not electrically heated.

Ensure that the water softener is correctly adjusted.

Do not pre-rinse dishes under running water.

When you wash a small load, the load sensor calculates the amount of water necessary and shortens the programme. It is more economical to always wash with a full load.

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.

Operating Instructions

Adjust the water softener

 

To avoid the scale deposits on the dishes and in the dishwasher, the

 

dishes must be washed with soft, i.e. low lime content, water. The dish-

 

washer therefore has a built-in water softener, in which tap water from

 

a hardness of 4 °d (German degree) is softened with the aid of special salt.

3

You water supplier will be able to inform you on the hardness and

 

hardness range of the water in your area.

0Adjust the water softener to the setting that corresponds to the hardness of the water in your area. The water softener can be adjusted in 10 steps.

Operating Instructions

5.Pressing the water softener button increases the hardness setting by 1.

(Exception: hardness setting 0 follows hardness setting 9).

6.When the hardness setting is correct, press the ON/OFF switch M. The hardness setting is then saved.

Filling with Special Salt for the Water Softener

1 Use only special salt for dishwashers. Never fill the salt container with any another type of salt (e.g. culinary salt) or dishwasher detergent. This would irreparably damage the water softener.

Prior to filling with salt, please check each time that you really do have a packet of special salt in your hand.

Fill with special salt:

Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time

When the SALT indicator Jon the control panel is illuminated.

3

If the water hardness in your area is less than 4 °d, you do not need to

 

use special salt.

3.Only when using for the first time: fill the salt container with water.

4.Place the funnel supplied on the con-

tainer opening.

Fill the container with special salt through the funnel; the capacity of the container is approx. 1.0-1.5 kg depending on the grain size. Do not

overfill the salt container with special salt.

3 The water expelled by filling the salt container with special salt runs out of the salt container onto the base of the washing compartment. This is not a cause for concern, the water will be pumped out at the start of the next wash programme.

5.Clean any salt remnants on the container opening.

6.Turn the lid clockwise to the stop, otherwise special salt will leak into the wash water. Dull glasses may result.

12

Operating Instructions

7.If you are not going to wash your dishes immediately, you should run the Pre Wash programme A. This will wash away salt water that has run out of the container and any grains of salt that have been spilt.

3

Depending on the size of the salt grains, it can take several hours for

 

the salt to dissolve in the water and the special salt indicator Jto

extinguish. The setting of the water softener and thus the consumption of salt are dependent on the hardness of the local water.

Filling with Rinse Aid

 

Rinse aid ensures that your dishes gleam and are free from spots, and

 

that you glasses are clear.

1

Use only branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid con-

 

tainer with any another substance (e.g. concentrated vinegar). This

would damage the appliance.

Fill with rinse aid:

Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time

When the RINSE AID indicator Kon the control panel is illuminated.

The rinse aid container is on the inside of the dishwasher door.

0 1. Open the door

2. Turn the lid of the container ¼ of a turn anticlockwise and remove.

13

Operating Instructions

3.Fill with rinse aid, up to the broken line as a maximum; this line corresponds to a quantity of approx.

150 ml

4.Replace the lid and tighten by turning clockwise.

5.If rinse aid has been spilt, wipe up with a cloth. Otherwise there will be too much foam during washing.
