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.
5
Dishwasher safety catch
The dishwasher has a safety catch
The door safety catch prevents children being able to
open the door accidentally.
1. To secure the dishwasher door against unintentional opening:
– press the small pin on the left in the door handle
(e.g. with a spoon handle) to the right (1).
2. If the safety catch is on, to open the dishwasher
door:
– first move the door handle to the left (3) using
the bar (2), until you feel a resistance,
– then pull the door handle forward (4).
3. To release the dishwasher door safety catch:
– push the pin fully to the left (5) with a spoon
handle.
6
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 contribution to the costs, dispose
of it for you.
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.
• 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.

Special salt and rinse aid must not be added
if you use 3-in-1 detergent tablets.
9
Set water softener
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 dishwasher therefore has a built-in water softener, in which tap water
with a hardness of 4°d (German degree) and harder is
softened with the aid of special salt.
3
The water softener can be set manually using the
water hardness switch; it can also be set electronically using the buttons on the control panel.
Your water supplier will be able to inform you
about the hardness and hardness range of
the water in your area.

Special salt for the water softener
3
If the water hardness in your area is less
than 4 °d, then the water in your dishwasher
does not need to be softened and you do not
need to use special salt or salt substitute.
Water can be softened in one of two
ways:
• If you are using dishwasher detergent that already
contains salt substitute, the detergent only is put
into the detergent compartment.
– In this case the water softener must manually
be set to 0 and electronically to 1 to ensure
that no special salt is added.
• If you are using dishwasher detergent and special
salt separately, the special salt is to be put into the
salt supply container.
– In this case the water softener must manually
be set to 0 and electronically to between 2
and 10 (depending on the water hardness in
your area) to ensure that the special salt is
taken from the detergent container only.
1
Use only special salt intended for dishwashers. Never fill the salt supply container with
different types of salt (e.g. cooking salt) or
detergent. This would destroy 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.
Setting the amount of special salt to be
added
3
Some appliances are equipped with an additional 3in1 function.
If you use 3-in-1 dishwashing tablets and
select the 3in1 function together with the
dishwashing cycle, the inflow of special salt
does not have to be deactivated (see ”3in1
function”).

Set the water softener manually and electronically to
the desired water hardness:

Adding special salt
If you are using dishwasher detergent and special
salt separately, add the special salt:
• Before using the dishwasher for the first time.
• When the
nated on the control panel.
1. Open the door, remove the lower rack.
2. Undo the lid on the salt container by turning it anti-
clockwise.
3. Only when using for the first time:
fill the salt container with water.
4. Place the funnel supplied on the container 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
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, 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.
3
t indicator for special salt is illumi-
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.
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
t to extinguish.
The setting of the water softener and thus
the consumption of salt are dependent on
the hardness of the local water.

Adding rinse aid
Rinse aid ensures that your dishes gleam and are
free from spots, and that your glasses are clear.
Rinse aid can be added in one of two ways:
• If you are using dishwasher detergent that already
contains rinse aid, the detergent including the
rinse aid is put into the detergent compartment.
– In this case the dispensing of rinse aid from the
supply container must be deactivated to avoid
a double dosage.
• If you are using dishwasher detergent and rinse
aid separately, the rinse aid is to be put into the
rinse aid supply container.
– In this case the dispensing of rinse aid from the
supply container must be activated.
– The amount of rinse aid to be dispensed must
be set.

• Before loading the dishes, you should:
• When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:
Sponges, household cloths and any object
that can absorb water may not be washed in
the dishwasher
– Cutlery with wooden, horn,
china or mother of pearl handles
– Plastic items that are not heat resistant
– Older cutlery with cement that is not tempera-
ture resistant
– Bonded cutlery items or dishes
– Pewter or copper items
– Lead crystal glass
– Steel items subject to rusting
– Wooden platters
– Items made from synthetic fibres
– Remove large left-overs.
– Soften remnants of burnt food in pans.
– Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rota-
tion of the spray arms.
– Load hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pans, etc. with the opening downwards so that
water cannot collect in the container or a deep
base.
– Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside
one another, or cover each other
– To avoid damage to glasses, they must not
touch
– Do not lay small objects (e.g. lids) in the cutlery
rack
.
For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery/dishes
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.
– Some types of glass can become dull after a large
number of washes.

To ensure that all items of cutlery are completely
washed, you should
1. Place the grid insert on the cutlery rack
2. Place short knives, forks and spoons in the grid
Some models of dishwasher have cutlery baskets
without a cutlery grid.
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard.
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as
carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
Take care when loading or unloading sharp
items such as knives.

Loading Pans, Frying Pans and
Large Plates
Load large and heavily soiled dishes in the lower rack
(Plates up to 29cm in diameter).
Your dishwasher has one of the following two types of
lower rack:
Type 1: The rear plate insert in the lower
rack can be removed
3
To make it easier to load large dishes, it is
possible
- to remove the plate inserts from the lower
rack.
- to move the cutlery basket sideways.
Type 2: The rear plate insert in the lower
rack can be folded on its side
3
To ease the loading of large items,
- the two rows of prongs in the rear plate
insert can be folded across one another.
- the cutlery rack in the lower rack can be
moved to the side.
17
Loading Cups, Glasses and Coffee
Services
Arrange smaller, sensitive items in the lower rack and
place long, pointed items of cutlery in the knife
drawer.
• Arrange plates and dishes offset on and under the
folding cup racks so that washing water can reach
all items.
• The cup racks can be folded up out of the way for
tall items.
• Lay or hang wine, champagne, and brandy
glasses in the cut outs on the cup racks.
• Glasses, beakers, etc. can also be placed on the
two rows of prongs on the left of the upper rack.

markings indicate the dosing levels:
“20” corresponds to approx. 20 ml of detergent,
“30” corresponds to approx. 30 ml of detergent.
If the dishes are very heavily soiled put additional detergent into the adjacent chamber
(2). This detergent will take effect during the
pre wash.

Use of "3 in 1"/ Combi Detergent
Tabl ets
General Advice
These products are tablets with combined detergent/
rinse-aid and salt functions.
1. Before using these products you should first check
that the water hardness in your supply is compatible with the use of these products as per the
detergent manufacturers instructions (on the product packaging).
2. These products should be strictly used according
to the detergent manufacturers instructions.
1
3. If you encounter problems when using "3 in1"
Special Advice
When using combination products, the rinse-aid and
salt lights are no longer useful. It may be helpful
therefore to switch the rinse aid off - please note that
only some dishwashers have this facility - and selecting the lowest possible setting for water hardness.
For more information please refer to your instruction
manual.
If you decide to switch to the use of a standard detergent system we advise that you:
• Refill both the salt and rinse aid compartments.
• Switch the waterhardness setting to the highest
• Readjust the waterhardness setting again accord-
Do not place the tablets in the tub or the
cutlery basket as this will result in poorer
wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent doser.

number is given on the product packaging).

without a load.
ing to the conditions for your region (as per the
instruction manual).
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher
detergents can be split into two basic types:
– conventional, alkaline detergents with caus-
tic components.
– low alkaline concentrated detergents with
natural enzymes.
2
The use of 50 °C wash programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents
reduces pollution and is good for your
dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated
detergent. For this reason 50 °C wash programmes in which concentrated detergents
are used can achieve the same results that
can otherwise only be achieved using 65 °C
programmes.
Detergent Tablets
3
Detergent tablets of different makes dissolve at different speeds. For this reason
some detergent tablets cannot develop their
full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use wash programmes with pre wash when using
detergent tablets.
Automatic Wash Programmes
During the AUTOMATIC programmes the amount of
soiling on the dishes is determined by how cloudy the
water is.
If the appliance is partially loaded and the dishes
lightly soiled, the “pre wash”, “main wash” and “rinsing” elements of the programme are shorter and the
water consumption level is lower.
If the appliance is fully loaded and the dishes heavily
soiled, the “pre wash”, “main wash” and “rinsing” elements of the programme are longer and the water
consumption level is higher.
For this reason the programme duration, water and
energy consumption levels can vary within the stated
range for AUTOMATIC programmes (see Programme
Ta bl e ).
In this way, the dishes are always optimally washed
while water and electricity consumption are kept low.
20
During AUTOMATIC programmes the temperature of
the wash water is also automatically adjusted to
between 50 °C and 65 °C depending on the amount
of soiling on the dishes.

Load Sensing
If a wash programme is started even though there are
only a few dishes in the upper and/or lower rack, an
intelligent electronic system adjusts the amount of
water and the duration of the wash programme to the
number of dishes. By this means it is possible to
wash only a few dishes quickly and economically. At
half load (6 place settings), up to 2 litres of water and
0.2 kWh of electricity are saved.

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 dishwashers, 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 to 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

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.

The following section is only applicable to
dishwashers that have a safety valve on the
threaded hose fitting for the tap:
Water inlet hose with safety valve
After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose,
the safety valve is next to the tap. Therefore the water
inlet hose is only under pressure while the water is
running. If the water inlet hose starts to leak during
this operation, the safety valve cuts off the running
water and the draining pump in the dishwasher is
switched on.
1
Please take care when installing the water
inlet hose:
– The distance between the bottom edge of the
safety value and the floor on which the dishwasher is standing must be at least 30 cm:
– The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the
double-walled water inlet hose. Do not
immerse the water inlet hose or the safety
valve in water.
– If the water inlet hose or the safety valve is
damaged, remove the mains plug immediately.
– A water inlet hose with safety valve must only
be replaced by a specialist or Customer Services.
– Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it
is never higher than the bottom edge of the
safety valve.

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 40 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.
If the dishwasher is fitted at a high
position
If the dishwasher is installed at a high level, and the
drainhose connection is less than 30 cm from the bottom of the appliance, adapter kit ET 111099520 must
be fitted. This is available from Customer Service.
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.
35
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 safety valve in the water
inlet hose immediately interrupts the supply of water
to the appliance and the drain pump is activated.
The remaining water in the appliance is automatically
pumped out.
1
The leak prevention system also works when
the appliance is switched off.
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 observed.
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.
36
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 appliance.
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.).
