1 Safety Instructions
The safety aspects of ELECTROLUX 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 asso-
ciated 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.
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
ELECTROLUX customer service) must be
changed by a service engineer authorised by
ELECTROLUX.
• 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 items of cutlery with sharp
edges must be placed in the cutlery tray or in the
upper rack.
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.
– 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 hol-
iday.
• 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.
4
Securing the door of the dishwasher
This way you can ensure that children cannot open
the door of the dishwasher:
1. There is a lever (1) on the left side of the door handle. You can secure the door against being
opened unintentionally by pressing this lever to
the back using a small screwdriver or the handle
of a spoon.
2. Once the lever has been pushed back, you must
first push the door handle to the left (2) and then
push it upwards (3) in order to open the door.
3. You can remove the safety lock from the door
again by pulling the lever forwards again using a
small screwdriver or the handle of a spoon.
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 mate-
rial (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 contr ibution to the c osts, dispose
of it for you.
5
2 Economical and Ecological Dishwash-
ing
• 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.
• 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.

Prior to using for the first time
Prior to using for the first time, remove all the clips
with which the dish racks are secured for transpor t.
Then perform the following steps:
1. Adjust the water softener
2. Filling with Special Salt for the Water Softener
3. Filling with Rinse Aid
Adjusting the Water Softener
To prevent the build up of scale on dishes and in the
dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft, i.e.
low lime content water. For this reason the dishwasher is fitted with a water softener in which tap
water from a hardness of 4 °d (Germ an degrees) is
softened with the aid of special salt.
3
Your local water authority can advise you on
the hardness of the water in your area.
The water softener has 4 settings.

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
• If a green mark can be seen under the lid of the
special salt container, then there is sufficient special salt. If the green mark cannot be seen, you
must refill the container with special salt.

fill the salt container with water.
ing.
Fill the container with special salt through the funnel; the capacity of the container is approx. 1.0-
1.5 k g depending on the grain size. Do not overfill
the salt container with special salt.
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.
ing.
cial salt will leak into the wash water, this could
lead to poor wash results. To avoid this run a rinse
program after filling the salt container with special
salt. This will wash away salt water and any salt
crystals that have been spilt.
Depending on the size of the salt grains, it
can take several hours for the salt to dissolve
in the water and the green mark to become
visible again.
The setting of the water softener and thus
the consumption of salt are dependent on
the hardness of the local water.

are not suitable: are of limited suitability:
– Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is spe-
cifically marked as being dishwasher-safe by the
manufacturer.
– Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed fre-
quently.
– Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to dis-
colour during washing. Left-overs, e.g. egg white,
egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and
staining on silver.Therefore always clean left-overs
from silver immediately, if it is not to be washed
straight after use.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
INSTRUCTIONS
Installing the Dishwasher
• The dishwasher must be installed on a firm floor
and adjusted to ensure that it is stable and level.
• To compensate for unevenness in the floor and to
match the height of the appliance to that of surrounding units extend the threaded feet by
unscrewing :
– use a screwdriver.
• For built-in, integrated and fully integrated dish-
washers, the rear feet should be adjusted from the
front of the appliance using a screwdriver.
• The drain hose, inlet hose and mains cable must
not be kinked or crushed when the dishwasher is
in position.
• The dishwasher must also be screwed on tightly to
the work surface or to the adjoining units. This is
essential t o ensure the diswasher does not tip.
Depending on type, the dishwasher is to be installed as follows:

- Plinth height
- The adjustment so that the unit matches the height
of the adjoining units
The exact height of the adjoining units must be
measured at the place of installation.
If the facing panel is longer than 600 mm, the
door of the appliance cannot be opened
completely (the facing panel bumps against
the plinth).
If this is the case, the plinth must be cut out
(see installation template) or the brace
adapter for the extra long door BLT 60 must
be used. You can obtain this with the E No.

Connecting the Dishwasher
Water Connection
The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the wash water returning into the drinking water
system and comply with the applicable plumbing regulations.
• The dishwasher can be connected to cold and hot
water supplies up to max. 60 °C.
• The dishwasher must not be connected to open
hot water appliances or instantaneous water heaters.
Permitted water pressure

• If you need a longer water inlet hose than that
The water inlet hose must not be kinked,
crushed or entangled when it is being connected up.
Connect the threaded hose fitting (DIN 259)
on the water inlet hose to a tap with an external thread (¾ inch). Tighten the threaded
hose fitting hand tight only.
In order that access to the tap in the kitchen
is not limited by the use of the dishwasher,
we recommend the installation of an additional tap, or fitting a two way adapter to the
existing tap.
supplied, VDE approved complete hose sets are
to be used. These are available from your local
Service Force Centre.

Water drain
Drain hose
1
• Connecting the drain hose:
The drain hose must not be kinked, crushed
or entangled.
– Maximum permitted height: 1 metre.
– Minimum required height 30 cm above the
lower edge of the machine.
Extension hoses
• Extension hoses are available from your dealer or
customer service. The internal diameter of the
extension hoses must be 19 mm to ensure that
the function of the appliance is not impeded.
• Extension hoses may be laid a maximum of 3
metres horizontally; the maximum permitted
height for the connection for the drain hose is then
85 cm.
Siphon connection
• The outlet of the drain hose (ø 19 mm) fits all commonly available siphon types. The outer diameter
of the siphon connection must be at least 15 mm.
• The drain hose must be fixed to the siphon connection using the hose clamp supplied.
Water drain into wash basins (only possible with free-standing appliances)
In the case that you wish to hang the drain hose in a
wash basin, use a detachable hose elbow. You can
obtain this from customer service under spare part
number ET 646 069 190.
1. Fit the elbow to the drain hose.
2. Secure the drain hose against sliding off the edge
of the wash basin.
Pass a piece of cord through the hose elbow and
fix it to the wall or the tap.
Leak Prevention System
For protection from damage due to water leaks, the
dishwasher is equipped with a leak prevention system.
In the event of a fault, the drain pump switches on. By
this means water can neither escape nor overflow.
The remaining water in the appliance is automatically
pumped out.
1
28
The leak p revention system also works when
the appliance is switched off – the appliance
must however not be disconnected from the
mains.
Electrical connection
1
When connecting the appliance, observe the German
VDE regulations and, if applicable, any additional
conditions required by your local electricity supplier.
Following installation, live parts and live insulated wiring must not be accessible using a finger test in
accordance with EN 60335/DIN VDE 0700.
Information on the electrical connection can be found
on the rating plate on the right side of the inner edge
of the dishwasher door. If the appliance has a
change-over switch, the additional instructions on the
change-over diagram in the mains connector box
must be obser ved.
Prior to connecting ensure that the mains voltage and
current rating at the site of installation match the
nominal voltage and current rating given on the rating
plate. The required fuse protection is also to be found
on the rating plate.
In compliance with electric company technical requirements for mains connections,
hard-wired connections to the mains may
only be made by approved electri-cians.
To isolate the dishwasher from the mains, remove the
mains plug.
Important: The plug must still be accessible after the
appliance has been installed.
If the appliance is hard-wired to the mains supply,
then it must be safely iso-lated from the mains within
the electrical installa-tion with an all-pole (N,L1) isolator (eg. protective cut-out) with a contact gap of > 3
mm.
29
Connections
The water inlet and drain hoses, as well as the mains
cable must be connected beside the dishwasher
because there is no space for them behind the a ppliance.
The example plumbing and electrical installation
given below can only be regarded as a recommendation; the actual situation where the dishwasher is to
be installed will define the exact installation (available
connections, local electricity and water board regulations for connecting up appliances, etc.).
