Safety instructions
The safety of AEG electrical appliances conforms to accepted rules of technology and the
Appliance Safety Act. We as manufacturers, however, see ourselves as being obliged to
familiarise you with the following safety instructions.
Using your dishwasher for its intended purpose
● Only use your dishwasher for machine washing of household crockery. If your machine is
misused or used for any purposes other than that for which it is intended, the manufacturer
cannot be held liable for any damage caused.
● For safety reasons, you should not convert or modify your dishwasher in any way.
● The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without
supervision.
● WARNING: DISHWASHER DETERGENTS ARE STRONGLY ALKALINE. THEY CAN BE
EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IF SWALLOWED. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN AND EYES.
Before using your dishwasher for the first time
● Check your dishwasher for any transport damage. Never connect a damaged machine. If
your dishwasher is damaged, you should contact your supplier.
● Your dishwasher must be correctly installed and connected. Please read the section on
"Installation" to make sure you know all about this.
● Before using your dishwasher for the first time, do not forget that the nominal voltage and
current type indicated on the rating plate of your machine must be the same as the nominal
voltage and current type at the installation site. The necessary electrical fusing is also given
on the rating plate.
Child safety
● Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for children, who could even be
suffocated! You should therefore keep all packaging well away from children.
● Children may not recognise the dangers of improper use of electrical appliances.
You should therefore ensure proper supervision during operation and not allow your
children to play with your dishwasher.
● Detergents may have a caustic effect on eyes, mouth and throat and may even cause
suffocation! Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s reach.
● The water in your dishwasher should not be used for drinking. Detergent residues may still
be present in your machine. Make sure you do not splash these caustic residues onto your
skin or suffocate yourself! Keep children well away from your dishwasher when its door is
open.
● CHECK THAT THE DETERGENT RECEPTACLE IS EMPTY AFTER COMPLETION OF THE WASH
CYCLE.
Page 5
5
Your dishwasher in day-to-day use
● Never operate your dishwasher if the electrical supply lead, supply or drainhose, control
panel, worktop or plinth are damaged.
● If there is a fault, first turn the water tap off. Then switch off your machine and pull the
plug out of the socket. If there is a fixed connection, switch off or unscrew the fuse(s).
● Never pull the plug out of the socket by the cable - always hold the plug.
● Dishwasher repairs should only be performed by trained personnel.
Improper repairs may seriously endanger the user. If your dishwasher needs to be repaired,
you should contact our service centre or your retailer.
● Never place any solvents in your dishwasher or you may cause an explosion!
● Do not rest or sit on the open door as the machine could tilt.
● Before using special dishwasher salt, detergent or rinse-aid, make sure that the
manufacturer of these products expressly specifies their use in domestic dishwashers.
● Always turn off the water tap when your dishwasher is left unattended for any length of
time, e.g. when you are away on holiday.
● Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position. Tipping it upside down during
transport could cause salty water to leak into the internal compartment and lead to the
formation of rust.
Page 6
Economical and ecological dishwashing
● Ensure that the water softener is correctly adjusted.
● Do not pre-rinse 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.
Marking of plastic parts for graded recycling: all plastic parts in your machine are marked with
internationally standardised abbreviations (e.g. <PS> for polystyrene). When your machine is
disposed of, this enables plastic waste to be sorted into individual types for environmentally
conscious recycling.
Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there are facilities in
your area for recycling the appliance.
Warning! Children at play could lock themselves in your machine (and
suffocate) or otherwise endanger their lives. Therefore pull out the main plug
and detach and discard the electrical supply lead.
Disable the door lock so that the door no longer closes.
6
Disposing of packaging and old machines
Warning! Packaging part s (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for
children and can cause suffocation. You should therefore keep all packaging
well away from children.
Disposing of the packaging
Our dishwashers require effective protective packaging in transit, though we always confine
ourselves to what is absolutely necessary.
All packaging materials used are environmentally compatible and reusable.
The cardboard parts are produced from recycled paper, and the wood is untreated.
The plastics are marked as follows:
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. packaging foils.
>PS< for polystyrene, e.g. padding (essentially CFC-Free).
>POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clamps.
Give the packaging for reuse to your local recycling centre. Your municipal or local authority
will give you its address.
Disposing of your old machine
When your machine finally reaches the end of its life and you withdraw it from service, you
should render it unserviceable before having it disposed of.

Audible signals have been introduced to help indicate which operations the dishwasher is
performing.
"Instruction accepted" audible signal
When any of the push buttons are pressed, an audible signal informs you that the machine
has accepted the instruction given.
"Programme run" audible signal
An audible signal informs you that the washing programme is starting.
"End of programme" audible signal
An intermittent audible signal informs you that the wash programme has ended.
"Alarm" audible signal
The machine is fitted with a number of alarm systems to help you determine the cause of
any problems (see "What to do, if...).
An audible signal informs you that an alarm is activated.
To deactivate these audible signals, press simultaneously "Intensive 70°C" and "Normal 65C°"
push buttons, after about 3 seconds an audible signal informs you that the audible signals
have been deactivated.
To reactivate these audible signals, press simultaneously "Intensive 70°C" and "Normal 65°C"
push buttons, after about 3 seconds an audible signal informs you that the audible signals
have been reactivated.
Both operations (to deactivate or reactivate the audible signals) must be carried out before
starting a washing programme; the setting will remain memorised after switching off the
dishwasher.

Before using your dishwasher for the first time
9
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions.
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance.
3. Set the water softener.
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with salt.
5. Fill the rinse-aid dispenser.
Setting the water hardness range
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from
the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the
appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German, French degrees and PPM (parts per
Million).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your
local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at level 3.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted.
You may change the factory level setting by means of the wash programme selector push
buttons. Each push button corresponds to a different level.
Level 1 = "Rinse and Hold" push button
Level 2 = "Intensive 70°C" push button
Level 3 = "Normal 65°C" push button
Level 4 = "BIO 50°C" push button
Level 5 = "Quick 50°C" push button

If your water hardness is level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use
salt. With the setting of the water softener at level 1 the salt indicator light on the
control panel will always remain off.
Page 10

To fill:
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is
necessary only before filling with salt for the first
time).
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the
container is full.
Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when
filling with salt, this is quite normal.
4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of
salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the cap tightly.
When this has been done, all that is required is to periodically top up the container with salt.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which will illuminate
when the salt has finished.
Filling with special salt
Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The
accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water softener. Each
time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really is salt.
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher,
especially table salt, will damage the water softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing
programmes (not the "Rinse and hold" programme). This will prevent any
grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the
bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To set a different level, proceed as follows:
1. Press the "Intensive 70°C" and "BIO 50°C" programme push buttons simultaneously for
about 5 seconds. The pilot light corresponding to the current level flashes.
2. Press within 5 seconds the programme push button corresponding to the required level.
After 5 seconds the dishwasher will memorise the new level setting and will return to
programme setting mode.
The setting will remain memorised after switching off the dishwasher.

Important!
The salt refill indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after
salt has been replenished, assuring the dishwasher remains on. If you are using salts that take
longer to dissolve then this can take longer. the function of the dishwasher is not affected.
The rinse-aid
The rinse-aid ensures brilliant crockery and also helps it to dry. It is automatically dosed in during
the hot rinsing cycle. The storage compartment built in to the inside of the door can hold about
110 ml of rinse-aid, which will be sufficient for between 16 and 40 dishwashing programmes,
according to the dosage setting.
Filling up the rinse-aid
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The indicator (B) will be completely
dark.
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Top up with rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear .
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during
the next wash.
Attention! Do not put liquid detergent in the rinse aid compartment.
Adjusting the dose
The correct dosage of the rinse-aid should be regulated on the
basis of the shine and drying results.
For this purpose, set the quantity of liquid by means of the
six-position selector (C) located on the inside of the filler
opening (minimum quantity is position 1, maximum quantity
is position 6).
Use the tip of a knife or a screwdriver to rotate the selector. If
drops of water or white marks remain on the crockery after it
has been washed, increase the dosage. If the crockery comes
out with whitish, sticky streaks, reduce the dosage.

Loading cutlery and dishes
Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water must not be washed in the
dishwasher.
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 not
temperature 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.
● Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher
if it is specifically marked as being
dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
● Glazed patterns may fade if machine
washed frequently.
● Silver and aluminium parts have a
tendency to discolour 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.
are of limited suitability:
Attention!
When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher proof.
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters
and consequently reducing the performance.
Open the door and slide out the baskets.
Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets.
Page 13
13
The lower basket
The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that
the upper spray arm can turn freely.
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 cup-racks.
The cup-rack on the left folds upwards to increase your loading flexibility.
Arrange items so that water can reach all surfaces.
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do
not move.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.

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 two-piece 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.
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.

Adjusting the height of the upper basket
If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in diameter) you can load them in
the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.
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.
Attention!
When the top basket is in the higher position it will only take plates up to 20 cm in
diameter and you will not be able to use the raised cup racks.
After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a
hazard.

Remember that insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor washing
results whereas an excessive amount of detergent does not improve washing
results and is also wasteful.
Using no more than the correct amount of detergent also contributes to
reducing pollution.
Use of detergent
Attention!
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
If using powder detergents proceed as follows:
1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).
2. Add the detergent. As all detergents are not the same, please pay attention to the dosage
instructions from the manufacturer of your brand.
3. Always close the lid.
4. If the programme has a prewash add the required detergent over the lid of the dispenser.
If using detergent in tablets proceed as follows:
1. For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the detergent dispenser.
2. Always close the lid.
3. For all programmes with prewash; place a portion of a further tablet on the lid of the
detergent dispenser.
At the end of any washing programme the lid is always open, ready for the next wash.
Since not all detergents are the same, you should also consult the instructions on the packet.

BIO programmes and compact powders
On the basis of their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be classified into two
groups:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components:
- low-alkaline compact powders with natural enzymes.
The enzymes in low-alkaline compact powders have a dirt-dissolving effect and are also
biodegradable. These enzymes deploy their full dirt-dissolving power within a temperature
range of 40-50°C. In 50°C washing programmes, the temperature range and duration of the
heating phases are precisely matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes.
In combination with low-alkaline compact powders, the 50°C washing programmes achieve
the same cleaning results that would otherwise be achievable only with 65°C programmes.
The lack of any caustic components in low-alkaline compact powders and the lower cleaning
temperature of 50°C washing programmes are not only environmentally friendly, but also
care for your crockery.

Under no circumstances must the
dishwasher be used without filters.
Maintenance and cleaning
Internal and external cleaning
Do not under any circumstances use furniture care products or aggressive cleaners.
If necessary, clean the controls only with a soft cloth and pure warm water.
The spray arms do not need cleaning.
Occasionally check the internal containers, door seal and water inlet for soiling, clean if
necessary.
We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using
detergent.
Cleaning the filters
The filters in the base of the washing compartment are to a large extent self-cleaning.
Nevertheless the filters should be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters
will degrade the washing result.
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket.
2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse/fine
filter, microfilter and a flat filter.
Unlock the filter system using a handle on the
microfilter, and remove.
3. Turn the handle about
1
/4a turn anticlockwise and
remove.
4. Take hold of the coarse/fine filter (1/2) by the handle
with the hole and remove from the microfilter (3).
5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.
6. Remove the flat filter (4) from the base of the washing
compartment and clean both faces thoroughly.
7. Put the flat filter back in the base of the washing
compartment.
8. Place the coarse/fine filter in the microfilter and press
together.
9. Put the filter combination in place and lock by turning
the handle clockwise to the stop.
During this process ensure that the flat filter does not
protrude above the base of the washing compartment.

Installation
Water outlet connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected as follows:
1. To the sink outlet siphon, securing it if necessary with a clip.
2. To a wall outlet 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 floor.
It makes no difference which way the drain hose faces, either to the right or left of the
dishwasher.
Avoid bending or kinking the hose as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.
Connecting the water supply
● Connect your dishwasher to a cold water supply only.
● Never connect your dishwasher to open hot water appliances and continuous
flow heaters!
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or slow down the water supply.
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time,
you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. This will prevent
deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the technical specifications.
Your dishwasher has been built in accordance with the valid regulations governing
water-consuming appliances and is equipped with safety devices which prevent used water
from flowing back into the drinking water mains.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been used in another appliance.

Extension hoses
The necessary extension hoses can be obtain from your AEG retailer or AEG Service Centre, see
the chapter “Customer Care”.
The extension hose 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 connection to the waste outlet must
be no smaller than the diameter of the drain hose.
Arrange the extension hose horizontally along the floor and allow it to rise only where it is to
be connected to the drain.
Water protection system
To protect your dishwasher from water damage, it is equipped with a water protection system.
In all cases of malfunction a fault code will appear on the control panel.
The fault is recognised by the fact that the indicator light of programme "Normal 65°C" will
start flashing, in this case turn off the water tap and call the Service Centre.
Electrical connection
Before plugging the appliance into the wall socket, make sure that:
1. The mains voltage corresponds to the voltage given in the technical specifications.
2. The meter, fuses, mains power supply and wall socket can all take the maximum load
required.
Make sure that the socket and plug are compatible without having to use any type of adaptor.
If necessary, have the domestic wiring system socket replaced.
This appliance must be earthed.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this safety measure not be
observed.
