3. Top up with rinse aid
By using rinse aid you will improve your drying result. You will also
achieve a better dishwashing result with glassware and dishes.
1 Open the rinse aid compartment lid.
2 Carefully top up with rinseaid. Only add rinse aid to thelevel marked
max.
3 Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the compartment.
4 Close the lid firmly.
Top up rinse aid
When the rinse aid needs topping up, the above symbol lights on the
display.
After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes out.
NOTE!
Increase the rinse aid dosage:
• If the dishes have water marks.
Decrease the rinse aid dosage:
• If the dishes have a sticky white/blue film.
• If the dishes are streaked.
• Build-up of foam. If you have very soft water, the rinse aid can be
diluted 50:50 with water.
Energy-efficient dishwashing
Run programs only with a full load
Wait to run a program until the dishwasher is full. This way you save
energy. Use the Rinse and hold program to rinse the dishes if there
are any unpleasant odours while you wait for the dishwasher tobecome
fully loaded.
Run programs at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select a program with a low
temperature.
Select Green mode
The dishwasher has different program modes. To save energy and
water, use Green mode.
Better drying results are achieved if you open the door a little once the
program has ended. (If the dishwasher is built-in, the surrounding
cabinets must be resistant to any condensation from the dishwasher.)
Do not rinse under running water
Simply scrape off large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
Choose a green detergent
Read the environmental declaration on the packaging!
Connect to cold water
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is
heated using oil, electricity or gas.
Connection to hot water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 70 °C) if the
building is heated using an energy-efficient means such as district
heating, solar power or geothermal power. Choosing a hot water connection cuts dishwashing times and reduces the dishwasher's energy
consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware cannot withstand high heat.
NOTE!
For water with a hardness greater than 10–12 °dH, you ought to use
rinse aid with citric acid (known as acid rinse aid).
5
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several reasons.
Some materials cannot withstand strong heat, others can be damaged
by dishwashing detergent.
Exercise caution with, for example, handmade items, fragile decoration,
crystal/glassware, silver, copper, tin, aluminium, wood and plastic.
Look for the "Dishwasher safe" marking.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the items feel rough)
should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal/Glass
Wash fragile items made of crystal/glass, such as crystal glass from
Orrefors, using the gentle dishwashing program Crystal glass. Remember to use only a small amount of detergent and to place items so that
they do not touch each other during the wash.
By using rinse aid you will improve your drying result. You will also
achieve a better dishwashing result with glassware and dishes.
Hand-painted glassware, as well as antique and very fragile items,
should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact, as the
silver can become discoloured.
Aluminium
Aluminium can lose its shine if washed in adishwasher. However, good
quality aluminium pans can be washed in a dishwasher, even if some
of the shine will be lost.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In suchcases, the handles
may loosen.
Points to consider
• All dirty surfaces should face inwards and downwards!
• Dishes should not be placed in or on each other.
• Angle dishes with hollows, such as cups, so that the rinse water
will run off. This is also important for plastic items.
• Make sure small items cannot fall through the dishwasher basket;
place them in the top cutlery tray.
NOTE!
Check that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The dishwasher's baskets
The dishwasher is equipped with a top cutlery tray, an upper basket,
a middle basket and a lower basket with a cutlery basket.
The appearance of the baskets may differ depending on the dishwasher
setup.

2 Pull out the top cutlery tray.
3 Slide the two locking handles on either side downwards and back-
wards to lower the top cutlery tray.
Upper basket
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates and saucers in the upper

Add detergent
1 Prewash detergent compartment
2 Main wash detergent compartment
Detergent is added according to water hardness.
Follow the instructions on the detergent packaging.
Too much detergent can result in less effective dishwashing and also
entails greater environmental impact.
The detergent compartment must be dry when adding detergent. There
is one compartment for the prewash and one for the main wash. If
powder or liquid dishwasher detergent is used, add a small amount
of the detergent to the prewash compartment. Contact the detergent
manufacturer if you have questions about the detergent.
NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Washing up liquid must not be used
as the foam that forms prevents thedishwasher from operating effectively.
Accessory

can be dismantled and attached to thelower basket or the large cutlery
basket to make an extra large cutlery basket. This accessory is available where you purchased your dishwasher.
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser lid. There is a risk
that the detergent will not be released properly if the lid is tight and
will not open correctly.
NOTE!
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programs (less
than 75 minutes). Use powder or liquid dishwasher detergent instead.
All-in-one detergent
There are many types of all-in-one detergents on the market. Read the
directions for these products carefully.
NOTE!
Optimal washing and drying results are achieved by using regular
dishwashing powder or liquid detergent with separately dispensed
rinse aid.

The dishwasher can be installed built-in, completely freestanding or
partially built-in.
A. Built-in
The dishwasher is intended for installation under a worktop. The recess
dimensions are illustrated. Holes for wires/cables need not be larger
than 38 mm in diameter. Make sure the edges of such holes are even
to prevent damage to the drainage and inlet hoses and the power cable.
B. Freestanding
A freestanding dishwasher must be fitted with anti-tip brackets. This
comprises two brackets, which are screwed into place as illustrated.
The dishwasher is then pushed in so that the brackets engage the rear
feet. Now the dishwasher will not topple if pressure is put on the open
door. If the dishwasher is installed completely on its own, side panels
and a worktop must both be fitted. Accessories can be purchased
where you bought the dishwasher.
Affix the protective film
Attach the protective film (packed in the document bag) to the underside of the worktop. The protective film is to protect the worktop from
moisture.
NOTE!
The surface to which the protective film is affixed must be clean and
dry.
WARNING!
A completely freestanding dishwasher must be fitted with anti-tip
brackets.
C. Partially built-in
If the dishwasher is located so that one of its sides is visible, a side
panel must be fitted. Accessories can be purchased where you bought
the dishwasher.

dishwasher into place
1 Start by measuring the height from the floor to the bottom edge of
the worktop.
2 Measure the height from the floor to the top edge of the dishwasher.
3 Lean the dishwasher forwards a little and roughly adjust the rear
foot by turning the adjustment screw at the front clockwise to raise
and anticlockwise to lower the dishwasher (see illustration below).
Use a broad screwdriver or a socket screwdriver.
4 Adjust the front feet by turningthem clockwise to raise and anticlock-
wise to lower the dishwasher.
Drainage connection
This dishwasher is suitable for installing in a raised recess (to attain
an ergonomic working height). This means that the dishwasher can be
placed so that the drainage hose runs to a lower level than the bottom
of the dishwasher, such as by routing it directly to a floor drain. The
dishwasher is fitted with an integrated anti-siphon device to prevent
the machine from being emptied of water during the wash cycle.
5 Check that there is an air gap of at least 3 mm between the under-
side of the worktop and the top edge of the dishwasher.
6 Slide the dishwasher into place.
• Pull through the drainage and supply hoses when the machine
is slid into place.
• Check that the hoses have no kinks or sharp bends, and check
that there is nothing that can damage the hoses.
7 Make any final adjustments to the feet (the dishwasher may lean
no more than 5 mm) and tighten the lock nuts on the front feet.
The drainage hose can also be connected to a connection nipple on
the sink unit’s water trap. The connection nipple must have an internal
diameter of at least 14 mm.
The drainage hose may be extended by a maximum of 2.5 m (the total
length of the drainage hose must not exceed 4.5 m). Any joins and
connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm.
However, the drainage hose should ideally be replaced with a new
hose without joins.
No part of the drainage hose may be more than 950 mm above the
bottom of the dishwasher.
Ensure that the drainage hose has no kinks.
Connection to water supply
Use only the inlet hose supplied with the dishwasher. Do not re-use
old or other spare hoses.
The supply pipe must be fitted with a water tap (stopcock). The water
tap must be easily accessible, so that the water can be shut off if the
dishwasher has to be moved.
Once the installation is complete, turn on the water tap and allow the
pressure to settle for a while. Check that all connections are watertight.
Connection to cold water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is
heated using oil, electricity or gas.

2x
KNOCK
OUT
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 70 °C) if the
building is heated using an energy-efficient means such as district
heating, solar power or geothermal power. Choosing a hot water connection cuts dishwashing times and reduces the dishwasher's energy
consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware cannot withstand high heat. See
Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.
NOTE!
Connecting a dishwasher to the water supply via certain types of
pressure limiting valves may restrict the water supply!
This may cause the error message Water inlet fault to be displayed.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be found on the compliance plate. This specification must match the electricity supply.
The dishwasher must be connected to an earthed wall socket.
The electric wall socket must be placed outside of the installation area
to be easily accessible after installing the dishwasher. Do not use an
extension cord!
Screwing the dishwasher into place
(Applicable only to built-in dishwashers.)
After fastening the machine, check that the front feet still touch the
floor.
Screw the dishwasher into place with two extra screws
If there is an air gap of more than 3 mm between the underside of the
worktop and the top of the dishwasher, the dishwasher should be
screwed into place with two extra screws.
NOTE!
Repairs and maintenance must be carried out by a qualified professional.
