Safety information
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:
General safety
● 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.
● Additions or modifications to the dishwasher are not permitted for
safety reasons.
Before using the dishwasher for the first time
● Check the dishwasher for transport damage. Never connect a
damaged machine. In the case of damage, please contact your retailer.
● For information on how to correctly install and connect up your
dishwasher, please read the ”Installation” section.
● 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 can also be found on the rating plate.
Child safety
● Remember that the plastic bags included in the packaging can be
fatal playthings for small children.
● Children may not recognise the dangers of improper use of electrical
appliances. You should therefore ensure proper supervision during operation and not allow children to play with the 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 is not suitable for drinking. If there are
still remnants of degergent in the appliance, there is a risk of burns. Keep children well away from the dishwasher when its door is open.

Instruction book
In daily use
● Never place the dishwasher in operation if the mains cable, water
inlet or drain hose is damaged, or the control panel, or plinth area is damaged such that the inside of the appliance is freely accessible.
● 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.
● When removing the electrical plug, grip the plug, not the lead.
● Servicing and possible repairs must be carried out by a service
company authorized by the supplier. Use only spare parts supplied by these. Never try to repair the dishwasher yourself, repairs carried out by unauthorized or inexperienced persons can cause injury or serious malfunctioning.
● If the mains lead is damaged, or is to be replaced for a longer lead,
the cable (obtainable from AEG Service Force) must be replaced by a service engineer authorised by AEG.
● Do not put any solvents in the dishwasher. There is a risk of an
explosion!
● Do not sit or stand on the open door, the appliance may tip over.
● Before using special dishwasher salt, detergent or rinse aid, make
sure that the manufacturer of these products expressly specifies their use in domestic dishwashers.
● Do not place sharp knives with their points upwards. It is much safer
to lay them horizontally in the basket.
● 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.
● The water safety system protects against water damages. The follo-
wing requirements must be fulfilled:
- The dishwasher must remain connected to the mains supply when switched off.
- The dishwasher must be correctly installed.
- Always shut off the water supply whenever the dishwasher is left unattended for an extended period.

General information
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.
● 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 recom-
mended in this instruction booklet and by the detergent manufacturer.
For washing in the dishwasher the following
are not suitable:
- wooden platters
- plastic items that are not heat resistant
- lead crystal glass
- pewter or copper items
- bonded cutlery items or dishes
- older cutlery with cement that is not temperature resistant
- cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother of pearl handles
Instruction book
For washing in the dishwasher the following
are of limited suitability:
- 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.
Make sure you always buy articles that are dishwasher safe.

Prior to using for the first time
Adjusting the water softener
To prevent the build up of lime on the dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft water i.e. water with a low lime content. This dishwasher is equipped with a water softener in which tap water from a hardness of 4°d (german degree) is softened with the aid of special salt.
Adjust the water softener according to the table below for the water hardness level for your area. Contact your local Water Authority to find the exact water hardness level for your area.
The water softener has 5 settings:
Water hardness
1)
°d
mmol/l
> 24 > 4,2 18 - 24 3,2 - 4,2 12 - 18 2,1 - 3,2

1) german degree of measurement for the water hardness
2) millimol, internationel unit for water hardness *) factory setting
The dishwasher must be switched off.
1. Press in the On/Off button.
2. Press the combination buttons simultaneously and hold them pressed in. When the first three programme indicator lamps starts to flash, you can let go of the buttons.
3. Press the water softener button once. The lamps for the water softener and for the ended programme cycle starts to flash and a buzzer will sound, unless it is switched off.
- The number of flashes for the ended programme cycle and sound signals are equivalent with the set water hardness level.
- This sequence of flashes and sound is repeated several times after a few seconds pause.
4. The water hardness level is raised by 1 step every time you press the water softener button.
10
After hardness level 5 comes hardness level 1.
5. Once the hardness setting is set correctly, press the On/Off button.
If the setting 1 is chosen, the salt indicator lamp is not lit.
Instruction book
Filling with salt for the water softener
Caution!
Use only salt designed for dishwashers. Never fill the salt container with any another type of salt or dishwasher detergent as this would irreparably damage the water softener. Prior to filling with salt, please check each time that you really do have a packet of dishwasher salt in your hand.
1. Unscrew the filler cap to the salt container anticlockwise.
2. Fill the salt container with water (only the first time).
3. Fill the container with coarse salt, using the funnel supplied.
4. Remove the funnel and wipe off any spillage around the filler opening.
5. Screw the filler cap back properly in place.
Fill with dishwasher salt:
When the indicator light on the control panel is lit.

Instruction book
Filling the rinse aid
Use of rinse aid will result in cleaner and faster drying of the load, since it helps water and soil to run off. Too much rinse aid may result in streakiness, too little may cause white spots.
Caution!
Only use rinse aid specifically designed for domestic dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substance (e.g. vinegar concentrate or dishwasher detergent) as this would damage the appliance.
The rinse aid dispenser is on the inside of the dishwasher door.
1. Open the lid to the dispenser by pressing the lid catch towards the compartment and lift the lid.
2. Fill up with rinse aid; do not overfill.
3. Wipe off any spillage carefully to prevent excessive foaming during the next wash programme.
4. Close the lid and press until it locks again.
Fill with rinse aid:
When the indicator light on the control panel is lit.
Adjusting rinse aid dosing
The dispenser holds about 150 ml. This is enough for approx. 60 wash cycles, depending on the dosage setting. Adjust the dosage setting according to the hardness of the water.
You can set the dosage between 1 - 6, equivalent to 1 - 6 ml rinse aid. Factory setting is 1. Begin at the lowest dosage setting and increase if necessary by turning the setting arrow with e.g. the handle of a spoon.
