OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1 Safety Instructions
The safety features 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. Under no circumstance
should a damaged appliance be connected up. In the event of damage, please contact your retailer.
• Before installing the appliance, ensure that the nominal voltage and
type of current specified on the rating plate are the same as those
used at the place of installation. Please also refer to the type plate for
the type of fuse to be used.
• You will find details on how to correctly install and connect up your
dishwasher in 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 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 may only be performed 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 use the dishwasher if the mains cable, inlet / drain hose are
damaged or the control panel, work surface or plinth area are damaged such that internal components of the appliance are openly
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 on
the plug.
• Additions or modifications to the dishwasher are not permitted for
safety reasons.
• Ensure that the door of the dishwasher is always closed, except during loading and emptying. By this means you will avoid anyone tripping over the open door and hurting themselves.
• 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 horizontaly 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 with the dishwasher. If the appliance is
used for purposes other than those intended or used incorrectly, no
liability will be accepted by the manufacturer for any damage that
may be caused.
• Only use detergents specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers.
• Do not put solvents in the dishwasher. There is a risk of an explosion!
• The leak prevention system provides reliable protection from damage
due to water leaks. For this system to function the following prerequisites 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.
• Do not sit or stand on the open door, the appliance may tip over.
6
Operating instructions
• In the event of a fault, shut off the water supply at the tap, then
switch off the appliance and unplug. In the case of a permanent connection: 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.
7
Operating instructions
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
Adjusting 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.
Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water
3
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.

Operating instructions
Filling with 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, 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.
Fill with dishwasher salt:
– Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time
– When the SALT indicator 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 dishwasher salt.
0 1. Open the door, remove the lower
rack.
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.

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. Dull glasses may result.
7. If you are not going to wash your dishes immediately, you should run
the PRE WASH programme. This will wash away salt water that has run
out of the container and any grains of salt that have been spilt.
12
Operating instructions
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.
Filling with Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, spot and streak free drying.
Only use rinse aid specifically designed for domestic dishwashers. Never
1
fill the rinse aid container with any other substance as this would damage the appliance.
Fill with rinse aid:
– Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time
– When the RINSE AID indicator on the control panel is illuminated.
The rinse aid container is on the inside of the dishwasher door.
0 1. Open the door
2. Turn the lid of the container
¼ of a turn anticlockwise and
remove.

Operating instructions
3. Fill with rinse aid, up to the broken
line (maximum); this line corresponds
to a quantity of approx. 150 ml
4. Replace the lid and tighten by turning clockwise.
5. If rinse aid has been spilt, wipe up
with a cloth. Otherwise there will be
foaming during the washing.
