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 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 associated 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.
5
Operating Instructions
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 AEG customer service) must be replaced 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.
• Sharp knives and other item of cutlery with sharp edges must be laid in the upper rack or placed in the cutlery rack with the point facing downwards.
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 holiday.
6
Operating Instructions
• 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.
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
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 Dishwashing
• 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.

Operating Instructions
Adjust the water softener
To avoid the scale deposits on the dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft, i.e. low lime content, water. The dish­washer therefore has a built-in water softener, in which tap water from a hardness of 4 °d (German degree) is softened with the aid of special salt.
You water supplier will be able to inform you on the hardness and
3
hardness range of the water in your area.
0 Adjust the water softener to the setting that corresponds to the hard-
ness of the water in your area. The water softener can be adjusted in 10 steps.

6. When the hardness setting is correct, press the ON/OFF switch A. The hardness setting is then saved.
Filling with Special Salt for the Water Softener
Use only special salt for dishwashers. Never fill the salt container with
1
any another type of salt (e.g. culinary salt) or dishwasher detergent. This would irreparably damage 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.
Fill with special salt:
– Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time –When the SALT indicator g on the control panel is illuminated.
If the water hardness in your area is less than 4 °d, you do not need to
3
use special salt.
0 1. Open the door, remove the lower
rack.
2. Undo the lid on the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
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.
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.
11
Operating Instructions
6. Turn the lid clockwise to the stop, otherwise special salt will leak into the wash water. Dull glasses may result. 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 g to extinguish. The setting of the water softener and thus the consumption of salt are dependent on the hardness of the local water.
Filling with Rinse Aid
Rinse aid ensures that your dishes gleam and are free from spots, and that you glasses are clear.
Use only branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid con-
1
tainer with any another substance (e.g. concentrated vinegar). This would damage the appliance.
Fill with rinse aid:
– Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time – When the RINSE AID indicator h on the control panel is illuminated.
The rinse aid compartment is on the inside of the dishwasher door.
0 1. Open the door.
2. Press the rinse aid compartment release button with your finger.
3. Fully open the rinse aid compartment lid.
12
Operating Instructions
4. Fill with rinse aid exactly up to the level marked “max”; this corresponds to a quantity of approx. 140 ml.
5. Close the lid and press until it locks into place.
6. Wipe up any spilt rinse aid with a cloth. Otherwise too much foam will be formed during the wash.
Adjusting Rinse Aid Dosing
As the dishes are washed rinse aid is released from the dispenser into
3
the wash water. The dose is factory set at 4, and can be adjusted from 1 to 6. Only change the setting if streaks, milky spots or dried on water marks are visible on glasses or crockery.
0 1. Open the door of the dishwasher.
2. Press the rinse aid compartment release button with your finger.
3. Fully open the rinse aid compartment lid.
4. Set the dose level.
5. Close the lid and press until it locks
into place.
6. If rinse aid has run out, wipe up with a cloth.

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).

Operating Instructions
Bio Wash Programmes and Concentrated Detergents
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be split into two basic types: – Conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components – Weak alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
The use of BIO wash programmes in conjunction with concentrated
2
detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; the BIO wash programmes are specially matched to the soil dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated detergent. It is for this reason that BIO wash programmes can achieve the same results at 50 °C that can otherwise only be achieved using 65 °C programmes. During BIO programmes the water is briefly heated to more than 50 °C so that the active oxygen becomes effective.
Detergent tablets from different manufacturers dissolve at different
3
rates. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot develop their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use normal programmes with pre wash when using detergent tablets.

During BIO programmes the water is briefly heated to more than 50 °C so that the active oxygen becomes effective.
2)
The various stages in the wash programme have different sounds because the dishes are washed more intensely for short periods during certain stages of the wash programme to improve cleaning.

Changing/Interrupting/Cancelling the Wash Programme
Only change or interrupt a wash programme in progress if it is abso-
3
lutely necessary to do so. When the appliance is closed again, the air that has entered is heated and expands significantly. As result water may penetrate into the base of the appliance and trigger the leak pre­vention system.
Changing the wash programme
If you want to change the wash programme within 6 seconds of mak-
3
ing a programme selection, briefly press the button for the new wash programme.
If you want to change the wash programme at a later point in time, use the following procedure:
0 1. Press the button for the new wash programme and hold it pressed. The
indicators for both programmes now flash.
2. After a few seconds only the indicator for the new programme flashes. Release the programme button, the new programme is now running.

Operating Instructions
Interrupting the wash programme by opening the door of the dishwasher
Hot steam may escape from the appliance when opening the door.
1
There is a risk of scolding! Open the door carefully.
0 1. Open the door of the dishwasher. The wash programme stops.
2. The indicator for the programme that is currently running extinguishes.
3. Close the door. The wash programme continues.
Cancelling the wash programme
0 1. Press the button for the current wash programme and hold it pressed.
The programme indicator for the current wash programme flashes for a few seconds and then extinguishes.
2. Release the programme button, the wash programme is cancelled.

3
washer, it is not cancelled. The wash programme is continued when the dishwasher is switched on again.
Load Sensing – Sensor Logic
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.
24
Operating Instructions
Switching Off the Dishwasher
Only switch off the dishwasher when END f is illuminated on the pro­gramme progress display.
0 1. Press the ON/OFF button A. The ON/OFF button indicator A extin-
guishes.
Hot steam may escape from the appliance when opening the door
1
immediately after the end of the programme. Therefore:
2. Open the door carefully.
Emptying the Dishwasher
• Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be
3
allowed to cool down before removing them from the appliance.
• Leave the dishes in the dishwasher for approx. 15 minutes after the
end of the programme so that they dry better and can cool down.
• First empty the lower rack, and then the upper rack. By using this
procedure you will avoid any water that may be remaining in the upper rack, dripping onto the dishes in the lower rack and leaving water marks.
Care and Cleaning
Do not under any circumstances use furniture care products or aggres-
1
sive cleaners.
• If necessary, clean the controls only with a soft cloth and pure warm
water.
• Occasionally check the internal containers, door seal, and water inlet
for soiling, clean if necessary.

Installation and Connection Instructions
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 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 not be kinked or
crushed when the dishwasher is in position.
Built-In 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.
31
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.
32
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 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: 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.
33
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 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.
34
Installation and Connection Instructions
Water drain
Drain hose
The drain hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled.
1
• Connecting the drain hose:
– 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 max-
imum of 3 metres horizontally; the maximum permitted height for the connection for the drain hose is then 85 cm.
Sink outlet connection
• The outlet of the drain hose (ø 19 mm) fits all commonly available
sink outlet spigot types. The outer diameter of the spigot connection must be at least 15 mm.
• The drain hose must be fixed to the sink outlet 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 AEG customer service under spare part number ET 646 069 190.
0 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
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 immediately interrupts the sup­ply of water to the appliance and the drain pump switches on. By this means water can neither escape nor overflow. The remaining water in the appliance is automatically pumped out.
The AQUA CONTROL SYSTEM also works when the appliance is switched
1
off – the appliance must however not be disconnected from the mains.
Electrical connection
In compliance with electric company technical requirements for mains
1
connections, hard-wired connections to the mains may only be made by approved electri-cians.
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.
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 isolated from the mains within the electrical installation with switches intended to ensure all-pole(N,L1) disconnection, shall be directly connected to the supply terminals and shall have a contact separation (fuses, cut outs, current trips or similar) of at least 3mm in each pole.
36
Installation and Connection Instructions
Connections
The water inlet and drain hoses, as well as the mains cable must be connected beside the dishwasher as there is insufficient space behind the appliance.
The plumbing and electrical installation example 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.).
