If you wish to use 3 in 1 detergent:
– First read the section “Using 3in1 detergents”.
– Do not fill up with special salt or rinse aid.

If you do not use 3in1 detergent, before using for the first time

1. Set the water softener

2. Fill up with special salt for water softeners

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 1 or 2 (see table).

Setting electronically:

4. Press and hold Start button.

5. Turn control knob clockwise as far as the first

programme.

6. Then release Start button.

– The indicator for the Start button will flash.
– The number of times that the indicator for the end of the dishwashing cycle

flashes corresponds to the hardness setting.

– This sequence of flashes is repeated several times, with a 3 second pause in

between.

7. Pressing the Start button increases the hardness setting by 1.
(Exception: hardness setting 1 follows hardness setting 10).

8. If the hardness setting is correctly set, turn control knob to the Off position.
The hardness setting is now saved.

If the water softener is set electronically to “1”, this switches off the control in
dicator for special salt.

Adding special salt

To decalcify the water softener, it must be filled up with special salt. Use only
special salt suitable for domestic dishwashers.

If you do not use 3 in1 detergent, fill up with special salt:

– Before using the dishwasher for the first time.
– When the control indicator for special salt is illuminated on the control panel.

1. Open the door and remove the lower
basket.

2. Screw open 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 dis
penser opening.
Fill the dispenser with special salt; the ca
pacity 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 special 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 special salt.

This will wash away salt water and salt crystals 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 for the control indicator for special salt to go out.

Filling up with rinse aid

With rinse aid the rinsing water drains away better and so you get smearfree,
gleaming dishes and clear glasses.

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 illuminated on the control panel.

Use only special rinse aid for dishwashers
and no other liquid detergents.

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 bro

ken “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.

11Prior to using for the first time

Prior to using for the first time12

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

compartment.

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.

13In daily use

In daily use

Loading cutlery and dishes

1 Sponges, cleaning cloths and any other objects that can absorb water must not

be washed in the dishwasher. Plastic and Tefloncoated dishes and pans tend to
retain water droplets. These dishes and pans therefore do not dry as well as
those made of china and stainless steel.

For washing in the dishwasher, the following cutlery/dishes/pots and pans

are not suitable: are of limited suitability:

• Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or
mother of pearl handles

• Plastic items that are not heat re
sistant

• Older cutlery with cement
that is sensitive to temperature

• Dishes or cutlery with glued parts

• Pewter or copper items

• Lead crystal glass

• Steel items that rust

• Wooden boards/platters

• Items made from synthetic materials

• Before loading the dishes, you should:
– Remove the worst of the food residues.

– Soak pans with burnton food residues.

• When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:
– Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms.

– Load bowls, cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening downwards so that

water cannot collect in them

– Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another or cover one an

other

– To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch one another
– Don’t put small items (e.g. lids) in the baskets for the dishes, but in the cut

lery basket, so that they can’t fall through the holes.

• Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is spe
cifically marked by the manufacturer as being dish
washersafe.

• Glazed patterns may fade if washed very frequently
in the dishwasher.

• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to dis
colour during washing. Food remains, e.g. egg white,
egg yolk and mustard often cause discoloration and
staining on silver. Therefore always clean food resi
dues from silver immediately, if it is not to be
washed straight after use.

• Glass can become dull after a large number of wash
es.

In daily use14

Loading cutlery

1 Warning: Sharp knives and other items of cutlery with sharp edges must be laid

in the cutlery rack or in the upper basket to avoid the risk of injury.
To ensure that all items of cutlery in the cutlery basket can be reached by the

water, you should:

1.Place the grid insert on the cutlery
basket

2.Place forks and spoons in the cutlery
basket's grid insert with their han
dles pointing downwards.

For larger utensils, such as whisks, leave off one half of the cutlery grid.

Pots, Pans, Large Plates

Load larger and heavily soiled dishes and
pans in the lower basket.
(Max. diameter for plates 29 cm).

To make it easier to load larger dishes, the
two plate rests on the right in the lower
basket can be folded down.

Cups, Glasses, Coffee Service

Load smaller, fragile crockery and long,
sharp cutlery in the upper basket.

• Arrange items of crockery on and under
the folding cup racks so that they are
offset from each other and water can
reach all items.

15In daily use

• The cup racks can be folded up out of the
way for tall crockery items.

• Lay or hang wine and brandy glasses in
the slots in the cup racks.

In daily use16

Adding detergent

Detergents remove the dirt from dishes and
cutlery.
The detergent must be added before the
cycle starts.

1 Only use detergent intended for domestic

dishwashers.
The detergent compartment is located on

the inside of the door.

1. If the lid is closed:
Press the release button.
The lid will spring open.

2. Place the detergent in the detergent dis
penser. The markings indicate the dosing
levels for powder detergents: “20/30” cor
responds to approx.
20/30 ml of detergent.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions
with regard to dosing and storage.

3. Close the lid and press until it locks into
place.

3 In the case of very heavily soiled dishes, fill

the adjoining compartment (1) with addi
tional detergent. This detergent comes into
use during the prewash cycle.

Concentrated detergents

Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively lowalkaline concen
trated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet or powder form.

2 Using 50°C dishwashing cycles in conjunction with these concentrated deter

gents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these dishwashing cycles
are specially matched to the dirtdissolving properties of the enzymes in con
centrated detergents. It is for this reason that using 50 °C dishwashing cycles in
conjunction with concentrated detergents can achieve the same cleaning results
that can otherwise only be achieved using 65 °C cycles.

17In daily use

Detergent tablets

3 Detergent tablets from different manufacturers dissolve at different rates. For

this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power dur
ing short cycles. Therefore please use dishwashing cycles with prewash when
using detergent tablets.

Using 3in1 detergents

These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing and salt func
tion.

If you want to use 3in1 products

1. There is no need to fill up with special salt or rinse aid.

2. Set the water softener to water hardness range “I”.

3. Set the rinse aid dosage to “1”.

Before the start of the dishwashing cycle put 3in1 detergent in the detergent
dispenser.

If you do not want to use 3in1 products any more

If you want to stop using 3in1 products, please do the following:

• Fill up the dispensers for salt and rinse aid again.

• Switch the water softener to the highest setting and perform up to three nor

mal cycles without loading any dishes.

• Then set the water softener to the water hardness in your area.

If you want to use 4in1 products

When using "4 in 1" detergents that integrate also anti glass corrosion agent
into "3 in 1" formula, please follow the same indication as given for "3 in 1" de
tergents.

• Always plug the mains plug into a correctly installed shockproof socket.

• Prior to using the appliance for the first time, ensure that the rated voltage

and type of supply on the rating plate match that of the supply where the ap
pliance is to be installed. The fuse rating is also to be found on the rating plate.

• Multiway plugs / connectors and extension cables must not be used. This
could constitute a fire hazard through overheating.

• The dishwasher’s cable must only be replaced by the Customer Care Depart
ment or a registered electrician.

• A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by the Customer
Care Department.

29Installation 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 in all directions.

• To compensate for unevenness in the floor and to match the height of the ap
pliance to that of surrounding units, extend the threaded feet using a screw
driver.

• Adjust the rear foot of the appliance using a cordless screwdriver from the
front of the appliance (see installation template).

• The drain hose, inlet hose and mains cable must be laid so that they are able to
move freely within the plinth area, and so that they are not kinked or crushed
when the dishwasher is in position.

• The dishwasher must also be screwed tightly to the work surface or to the ad
joining units. This is essential to ensure the dishwasher does not tip up.

Dishwashers that can be integrated

(see installation template supplied)
Using the installation template supplied split cupboard doors can be easily in

stalled and firmly fitted.

Connecting the dishwasher30

Connecting the dishwasher

Connecting to the water supply

• 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 in
stantaneous water heaters.

Permitted water pressure

Lowest permitted water pressure:
0,1 MPa ( = 1 bar = 10 N/cm

1 MPa ( = 10 bar = 100 N/cm

2

)

2

)

Consult your plumber if the water pressure is
less than 0,1 MPa.

If the water pressure is greater than
1 MPa, a pressure reduction valve must be used
(available from your dealer).

Connecting the inlet hose

1 The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled when it is being

connected.
Connect the threaded hose fitting (ISO 2281:2000) on the water inlet hose to a
tap with an external thread (¾ inch). The inlet hose is fitted with either a plastic
or a metal nut:
– Only tighten the nut hand tight.
Then do a visual check for water tightness. (Make sure that the tap is not drip
ping.)

3 So that access to the tap in the kitchen is not restricted by the use of the dish

washer, we recommend installing an additional tap, or fitting a Tbranch to the
existing tap.

1 WARNING!  Dangerous voltage

(This does apply to dishwashers with safety
valve).
The electrical cable for the safety valve is in
the doublewalled water inlet hose and is
live.
Therefore do not immerse the water inlet
hose or the safety valve in water.

Water drainage

Drain hose

1 The drain hose must not be kinked, crushed

or entangled.

• Connecting the drain hose:
maximum permitted height above the
bottom edge of the appliance: 60 cm.

Extension hoses

• Extension hoses are available from your
dealer or from our Customer Care Depart
ment. To ensure that the function of the
appliance is not impeded, the internal di
ameter of extension hoses must be 19 mm.

• The total length including extension hoses
must not exceed 4 metres.

Sink outlet connection

• The outlet of the drain hose (ø 19 mm) fits all commonly available sink outlet
types. The outer diameter of the sink outlet connection must be at least 15
mm.

• The drain hose must be fixed to the sink outlet connection using the hose
clamp supplied.

31Connecting the dishwasher

permitted distance

Antiflood system

For protection from water damage, the dishwasher is equipped with a antiflood
system.
In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the water inlet hose immediately in
terrupts the supply of water to the appliance.

Electrical connection

Details about the voltage, type of supply and the fuses required are to be found
on the rating plate. The rating plate is located on the righthand inner edge of
the dishwasher door.

To isolate the dishwasher from the mains, pull out the mains plug.

Important:

– Safety standards require the appliance to be earthed. The manufacturer ac

cepts no liability for failure to observe the above safety precautions.

– The plug must be accessible after the appliance has been installed.
