Operating instructions
In daily use
Loading cutlery and dishes
Sponges, cleaning cloths and any other objects that can absorb water
must not be washed in the dishwasher. Plastic and Teflon-coated dishes
tend to retain water droplets. These dishes therefore do not dry as well
as china and stainless steel.
For washing in the dishwasher, the following cutlery/dishes
are not suitable:
•Cutlery with wooden, horn,
china or mother-of-pearl handles
•Plastic items that are not heat
resistant
•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
•Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it
is specifically marked by the manufacturer
as being dishwasher-safe.
•Glazed patterns may fade if washed very
frequently in the dishwasher.
•Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency
to discolour when washed. Food remains,
e.g. egg white, egg yolk and mustard often
cause discolouration and staining on silver.
Therefore always clean food residues 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.
are of limited suitability:
• 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 hollow items such as 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 another
- To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch one another
- Lay small objects in the cutlery basket
12
Operating instructions
Cutlery basket
Place knives, forks and spoons in the cutlery basket with their handles
pointing downwards.
Arrange cutlery loosely and distribute it in all compartments so that
each individual article has good contact with washing water. Also do
not arrange spoons and forks with their dirty side in contact with each
other.
Important! Exceptionally long cutlery, such as soup ladles, kitchen
knives, or the like, may obstruct the upper spray arm. Such cutlery can
be placed in the upper basket.
To unload your dishwasher more easily, you can take the cutlery basket
out of the lower basket and unfold it. this makes it easier to remove
small pieces of cutlery.
Important note! To prevent the full cutlery basket from inadvertently
unfolding when being taken out, place your hand right round the twopiece handle and hold it firmly.
1. Place the cutlery basket on a firm support (table, worktop) and
unfold both handle parts.
2. After unloading, fold back both handle parts.
UI25
UI20
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.

Operating instructions
The lower basket
Load larger and heavily soiled dishes in the lower basket.
UI12
UI51
The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner
plates up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses; these
should be arranged as shown in the pictures.
Glasses with long stems can be placed upside-down in the raised cupracks.
The cup-rack on the left folds upwards to increase your loading
flexibility.
Arrange items on and underneath the fold-down cup racks so that
water can reach all surfaces.
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and
arranged so they do not move.

With upper basket raised20 cm31 cm
With upper basket lowered24 cm27 cm
To move to the higher position proceed as follows:
1. Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket outwards and
slide the basket out.
2. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops (A) in
their original position.
When the basket is in the heigher
position you will not be able to
use the cup rack(s).

Operating instructions
Adding detergent
The detergent must be added before the programme starts.
Only use dishwasher detergent.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions with regard to dosing and
storage.
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 dispenser. The markings
indicate the dosing levels:
”20”/”30” corresponds to approx.
20/30 ml of detergent.
3. Close the lid and press until it
locks into place.
In the case of very heavily soiled
dishes, fill the adjoining
compartment (1) with additional
detergent. This detergent starts to
act with the pre-rinse.
DE24
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be
split into two basic types:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
- low alkaline concentrated deter gents with natural enzymes.
The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with
concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your
dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the dirtdissolving 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.
16
Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds.
For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop
their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please
use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the
complete removal of detergent residuals.
Using 3 in 1 detergent tablets
These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing
and salt function.
1. Check whether they are suitable for your water hardness.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Place just the detergent in the detergent dispenser.
If you want to stop using 3 in 1 products, please do the following:
• Fill up the dispensers for salt and rinse aid.
• Switch the water softener to the highest setting and perform up
to three normal cycles without loading any dishes.
• Then set the water softener to the water har dness in your ar ea.

of the appliance to that of surrounding units, extend the threaded
feet using a screwdriver:
• Adjust the rear feet of the appliance using a cordless screwdriver
from the front of the appliance.
• 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.
• The dishwasher must also be screwed tightly to the work surface or
to the adjoining units. This is essential to ensure the dishwasher does
not tip up.

Installation and connection instructions
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 instantaneous water heaters.
Permitted water pressure
Lowest permitted water pressure:
0,5 bar (=5 N/cm2 =50 kPa)
Highest permitted water pressure:
8 bar (=80 N/cm2 =0,8 MPa)
Consult your installer if the water
pressure is less than 0,5 bar.
If the water pressure is greater than 8
bar, a pressure reduction valve must be
used (available from your dealer).
Connecting the inlet hose
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled when it
is being connected up.
Connect the threaded hose fitting (ISO 228-1:2000) on the water inlet
hose to a tap with an external thread (3/4 inch). The inlet hose is fitted
with either a plastic or a metal nut:
- Tighten the plastic nut hand tight only.
– You must tighten the metal nut using a tool.
Then do a visual check for water tightness (make sure that the tap is
not dripping).
• So that access to the tap in the kitchen is not limited by the use of
the dishwasher, we recommend installing an additional tap, or fitting
a T-branch to the existing tap.

Installation and connection instructions
Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways:
1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the work
surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink running into the
machine.
2. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal
diameter 4 cm.
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm
(minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the
dishwasher.
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow
down the discharge of water.
The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as
this could cause the water to siphon back into the machine.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2 metres
and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the
hose provided.

Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections
to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose
provided.
Attention!
Our appliances are supplied with a security device to protect against
the return of dirty water back into the machine.
If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated this can
prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher.
We advise you therefore to remove it.
Installation and connection instructions
Anti-flood system
For protection from water demage, the dishwasher is equipped with a
anti-flood sytem.
In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the water inlet hose
immediately interrupts 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
inner edge of the dishwasher door.
To isolate the dishwasher from the mains, pull out the mains plug.
Important:
– The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has
been installed.
– Following installation, live parts and insulated wiring must not be
accessible with a probe in accordance with EN 60335/DIN.
Connections
The water inlet hose, drain hose and the mains cable must all be
connected to the side of the dishwasher as there is no space for them
behind the appliance.

If after all these checks, the problem persists, contact your local
consumer services department, quoting the model (Mod.), product
number (PNC) and serial number (S.N.).
This information can be found on the rating plate located on the right
hand side of the dishwasher door (see picture).
So that you always have these numbers at hand, we recommend you
to make a note of them here:
This product should be serviced by an authorised service engineer, and
only genuine spare parts should be used.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the machine
yourself.
Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or
