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 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.
• Sharp knives and items of cutlery with sharp edges must be placed in
the cutlery tray or in the upper rack.
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 holi-
day.
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 pakkaging 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.
7
Operating Instructions
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.
• If 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.
• The dishwasher's interior light is always switched on as long as the
door of the appliance is open. To save energy you should therefore
always close the door of the dishwasher after loading or removing
dishes.

Operating Instructions
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 water supplier will be able to inform you about the hardness and
3
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 supply 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 taken from
the detergent container only.
Use only special salt intended for dishwashers. Never fill the salt supply
1
container with different types of salt (e.g. cooking 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 dishwashing cycle, the inflow of special salt does not
have to be deactivated (see ”3in1 function”).

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.

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 special 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 the special salt indicator
extinguish. The setting of the water softener and thus the consumption
of salt are dependent on the hardness of the local water.

Operating Instructions
RINSE AID
Rinse aid ensures that your dishes gleam and are free from spots, and
that your glasses are clear.
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 supply container
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 supply container.
– In this case the dispensing of rinse aid from the supply container
must be activated.
– The amount of rinse aid to be dispensed must be set.

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).
28
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.

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.

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). The inlet hose is
equipped either with a plastic or with a metal connection nut:
– Tighten plastic hose connection nuts by hand only.
– Metal hose connection nuts must be tightened using an
appropriate tool. Finally, visually check that it is water-tight (ensure
that the tap is not dripping).
• 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 appro-
ved complete hose sets are to be used. These are available from your
local Service Force Centre.
45
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.
46
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 exten-
sion hoses must be 19 mm to
ensure that the function of the
appliance is not impeded.
• Extension hoses may be laid a
maximum 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.
47
Installation and Connection Instructions
Leak prevention system
To avoid damage caused by water leakage, the dishwasher is equipped
with a leak prevention system.
In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the appliance immediately
interrupts the inflow of water and the drain pump is activated. In this
way water can neither escape nor overflow. Any remaining water in the
appliance is automatically pumped out.
The leak prevention system also works when the appliance is switched
1
off – the appliance must however not be disconnected from the mains.
In the event of a fault when the appliance is switched on, a buzzing
tone can also be heard.
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.
48
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.).

Guarantee Conditions
GUARANTEE CONDITIONS
DECLARATION OF GUARANTEE TERMS.
Our appliances are produced with the greatest of care. However, a defect may still
occur. Our consumer services department will repair this upon request, either during or
after the guarantee period. The service life of the appliance will not, however, be reduced as a result.
This declaration of guarantee terms is based on European Union Directive 99/44/EC and
the provisions of the Civil Code. The statutory rights that the consumer has under this
legislation are not affected by this declaration of guarantee terms.
This declaration does not affect the vendor's statutory warranty to the end user. The
appliance is guaranteed within the context of and in adherence with the following
terms:
1. In accordance with provisions laid down in paragraphs 2 to 15, we will remedy free of
charge any defect that occurs within 24 months from the date the appliance is delivered to the first end user.
These guarantee terms do not apply in the event of use for professional or equivalent
purposes.
2. Performing the guarantee means that the appliance is returned to the condition it was
in before the defect occurred. Defective parts are replaced or repaired. Parts replaced
free of charge become our property.
3. So as to avoid more severe damage, the defect must be brought to our attention immediately.
4. Applying the guarantee is subject to the consumer providing proof of purchase
showing the purchase and/or delivery date.
5. The guarantee will not apply if damage caused to delicate parts, such as glass (vitreous
ceramic), synthetic materials and rubber, is the result of inappropriate use.
6. The guarantee cannot be called on for minor faults that do not affect the value or the
overall reliability of the appliance.
7. The statutory warranty does not apply when defects are caused by:
• a chemical or electrochemical reaction caused by water,
• abnormal environmental conditions in general,
• unsuitable operating conditions,
• contact with harsh substances.
8. The guarantee does not apply to defects due to transport which have occurred outside
of our responsibility. Nor will the guarantee cover those caused by inadequate installation or assembly, lack of maintenance or failure to respect the assembly instructions or
directions for use.
9. Defects that result from repairs or measures carried out by people who are not qualified or expert or defects that result from the addition of non-original accessories or
spare parts are not covered by the guarantee.
10. Appliances that are easy to transport may be delivered or sent to the consumer services
department. Home repairs are only anticipated for bulky appliances or built-in
appliances.
11. If the appliances are built-in, built-under, fixed or suspended in such a way that removing and replacing them in the place where they are fitted takes more than half an
hour, the costs that result therefrom will be charged for. Connected damage caused by
these removal and replacement operations will be the responsibility of the user.
51
Guarantee Conditions
12. If, during the guarantee period, repairing the same defect repeatedly is not conclusive,
or if the repair costs are considered disproportionate, in agreement with the consumer,
the defective appliance may be replaced with another appliance of the same value.
In this event, we reserve the right to ask for a financial contribution calculated according to the length of time it has been used.
13. A repair under guarantee does not mean that the normal guarantee period will be
extended nor that a new guarantee period begins.
14. We give a twelve month guarantee for repairs, limited to the same defect.
15. Except in the event where liability is legally imposed, this declaration of guarantee
terms excludes any compensation for damage outside the appliance for which the consumer wishes to assert his rights. In the event of legally admitted liability, compensation will not exceed the purchase price paid for the appliance.
These guarantee terms are only valid for appliances purchased and used in Belgium. For
exported appliances, the user must first make sure that they satisfy the technical conditions (e.g.: voltage, frequency, installation instructions, type of gas, etc.) for the
country concerned and that they can withstand the local climatic and environmental
conditions. For appliances purchased abroad, the user must first ensure that they meet
the qualifications required in Belgium. Non-essential or requested adjustments are not
covered by the guarantee and are not possible in all cases.
Our consumer services department is always at your disposal, even after the guarantee
period has expired.
