Operating Instructions
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1 Safety Instructions
The safety aspects of AEG 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 retailer.
• Before installing the appliance, 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. Adaptors / connectors
and extension cables must not be used.
Child Safety
• This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should
not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product.
• Keep all packaging away from children.
• Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s reach.
• 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 an old appliance, cut off the power supply cable
and remove any door catches, to prevent young children being
trapped inside.
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 your local
AEG Service Force Centre.
5
Operating Instructions
• 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 AEG Service Force) must be changed by a
service engineer authorised by AEG.
• 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.
• Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard.
• Sharp knives and items of cutlery with sharp edges must be placed in
the cutlery tray or in the upper basket.
• When finished loading or unloading, close the door as an open door
can be a hazard.
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.
• Only use detergents specifically designed for use in domestic 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 holi-
day.
• Do not sit or stand on the open door, the appliance may tip over.
6
Operating Instructions
• 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: remove the fuse.
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 material (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
When disposing of old appliances, remove the plug and ensure that any
locks or catches are removed to prevent young children becoming
trapped inside.
Use an authorised disposal site.
2 Economical and Ecological Dishwashing
• 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 detergent manufacturer.

Operating Instructions
Setting the 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.
Your local water authority will be able to inform you about the hard-
3
ness and hardness range of the water in your area.
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.

Operating Instructions
Special salt for the water softener
If the water hardness in your area is less than 4 °d, then the water in
3
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 sub-
stitute, 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 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 dispensed
from the salt container.
Only use special salt intended for dishwashers. Never fill the salt supply
1
container with different types of salt (e.g. cooking or table 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
Some appliances are equipped with an additional 3in1 function.
3
If you use 3-in-1 dishwashing tablets and select the 3in1 function
together with the programme, the inflow of special salt does not have
to be deactivated (see ”3in1 function”).

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 indicator for special salt SALT is illuminated on the control
panel.
0 1. Open the door, remove the lower
basket.
2. Undo the lid on the salt container by
turning it anticlockwise.
3. 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 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 salt.
SALE
SALT
SALZ
SEL
The water expelled by filling the salt container with special salt runs
3
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.
5. Clean any salt remnants on the container opening.
6. Turn the lid clockwise to the stop, otherwise dishwasher salt will leak
into the wash water, this could lead to poor wash results. To avoid this
run a rinse programme 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
3
the salt to dissolve in the water and for the SALT indicator to extinguish.
The setting of the water softener and thus the consumption of salt are
dependent on the hardness of the local water.
14
Operating Instructions
Rinse Aid
Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, spot and streak free drying of
dishes and glassware.
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 dispenser 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 dispenser.
– In this case the dispensing of rinse aid from the dispenser must be
activated.
– The amount of rinse aid to be dispensed must be set.
Only use rinse aid specifically designed for domestic dishwashers. Never
1
fill the rinse aid dispenser with any another substance (e.g. concentrated vinegar) or dishwasher cleaning agent. This would damage the
appliance.

Operating Instructions
Use of "3 in 1"/ Combi Detergent Tablets
General Advice
These products are tablets with combined detergent/rinse-aid and salt
functions.
0 1. Before using these products you should first check that the water hard-
ness 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.
Do not place the tablets in the tub or the cutlery basket as this will
1
result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the
detergent doser.
3. If you encounter problems when using "3 in1" products for the first
time then please contact the detergent manufacturers care line (the
telephone number is given on the product packaging).
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 possible position
and run for three normal cycles without a load.
• Readjust the waterhardness setting again according to the conditions
for your region (as per the instruction manual).
26
Operating Instructions
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 detergents with natural enzymes.
The use of 50 °C wash programmes in conjunction with concentrated
2
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
Detergent tablets of different makes dissolve at different speeds. For
3
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 Table).
In this way, the dishes are always optimally washed while water and
electricity consumption are kept low.
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.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
INSTRUCTIONS
Installing the Dishwasher
• The dishwasher must be installed on a firm floor and adjusted such
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 unscrew-
ing:
– use a screwdriver.
• For built-in 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 be laid such that
they are free to move in the rear of the plinth recess, so that they
cannot be kinked or crushed.
Built-Under Dishwasher
(see enclosed installation instructions)
Free-Standing Appliances
can be set up as stand-alone without additional installation.
If the dishwasher is set up next to a gas or coal cooker, a heat-
1
insulating, non-flammable plate must be mounted between the
dishwasher and the cooker, flush to the top edge of the work surface
(depth 57.5 cm). The plate should have aluminium foil on the side facing the cooker.
41
Installation and Connection Instructions
If the dishwasher is installed underneath a kitchen work surface, the
original work surface of the dishwasher is to be removed as follows:
0 1. Unscrew the screws from the posi-
tioning plates on the back (1).
2. Slide the appliance's work surface
approx. 1 cm to the rear (2).
3. Lift the work surface at the front (3)
and remove.
If the dishwasher is later used as a free-standing appliance, the original
1
work surface must be re-mounted.
3 The plinth on free-standing appliances is not adjustable.
42
Installation and Connection Instructions
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 must be connected to a cold water supply.
•The dishwasher must not be connected to open hot water appliances
or instantaneous water heaters.
Permitted water pressure
Lowest permitted water pressure:
1 bar (=10 N/cm
Highest permitted water pressure:
10 bar (=100 N/cm
2
=100 kPa)
2
=1 MPa)
Consult your installer if the water pressure is less than 1 bar.
In the case of a water pressure greater
than 10 bar, a pressure reduction valve
must be used (available from your
dealer).
Connect the inlet hose
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled when it
1
is being connected up.
0 Connect the threaded hose fitting (ISO 228-1:2000) 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
3
of the dishwasher, we recommend the installation of an additional
tap, or fitting a two way adapter to the existing tap.
• If you need a longer water inlet hose than that supplied, VDE
approved complete hose sets are to be used. These are available from
your local Service Force Centre.
• Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been used for
another appliance.
43
Installation and Connection Instructions
The following section is only applicable to dishwashers that have a
3
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.
Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:
1
– 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 your local
Service Force Centre.
– Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never higher than
the bottom edge of the safety valve.
44
Installation and Connection Instructions

45
Installation and Connection Instructions
Leak Prevention System
For protection from damage due to water leaks, the dishwasher is
equipped with a leak prevention system, the AQUA CONTROL SYSTEM.
In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the appliance immediately
