Your dishwasher
Welcome to our growing ASKO family!
We are proud of our appliances. We want them to help make the world a better place – improving
the quality of life for you and your loved ones. We hope that this appliance will be an appreciated
and dependable device for many years to come.
Please read the operating instructions before use. They include general tips, information about the
settings and adjustments you can make, and how best to care for your appliance.
Install the dishwasher, see the chapter Installation instructions. Following this, open the door and
press the main power switch to start using the machine.
"Welcome to your new ASKO. This is a first time set up." is shown on the display the first time
the dishwasher is switched on. It is important that you choose the right settings to ensure good
dishwashing results. See page 7.

Important safety instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
WARNING!
When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
• Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
• Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them
out of the reach of children.
• When loading items to be washed:
– locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal, and
– load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
• Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For
plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher.
• Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not
been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system
has not been used for two weeks, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot water faucets
and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
• Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service
or discarding it.
• Read the grounding instructions in the installation instructions.
General
• Do not run the dishwasher while you are out of the home.
• Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher before servicing.
• Repairs should be done by a qualified technician.

Important safety instructions
Child safety
• Always keep small children away from the machine when it is open. There may be some detergent
residue left inside the machine.
• Always close the door and start the dishwasher as soon as you put in the detergent.
• If dishwasher detergent gets in someone’s eyes, rinse them with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes.
• Should a child swallow dishwasher detergent or rinse aid, give plenty to drink immediately, i.e.,
one or two glasses of milk or water. Do not try to induce vomiting. Seek medical advice immediately: Call the National Capital Poison Center at 1-800-222-1222.
WARNING!
Dishwasher detergents and rinse aids are corrosive, so always keep them out of reach of children.
Activate child lock (Kid Safe™)
You can activate the child lock (button lock) to prevent children from starting the dishwasher. See
the chapter Settings.
Installation
See the chapter Installation instructions.
Winter storage/Transport
Store the dishwasher above freezing and avoid long transport distances in very cold weather.
Transport the dishwasher upright or laying on its back.
Overflow guard function
The overflow protection starts pumping out the machine and turns off the water supply if the water
level in the dishwasher exceeds the normal level. If the overflow protection is triggered, Overfilling
water appears on the display. Turn off the water supply and contact your nearest service center.
Packing material
The outer packaging protects the product during transport. The packaging material is recyclable.
Separate the different packaging materials to help reduce raw material use and waste. Your dealer
can take the packaging for recycling or direct you to the nearest recycling center. The packaging
is comprised of:
• Corrugated cardboard made from up to 100% recycled material.
• Expanded polystyrene (EPS) with no added chlorine or fluorine.
• Supports made from untreated wood.
• Protective plastic made from polyethylene (PE).
Disposal
The dishwasher is manufactured and labeled for recycling.
When the machine has reached the end of its service life and is to be disposed of, it should immediately be made unusable. Pull out the power cable and cut it as short as possible.

Before washing for the first time
1. Water hardness
In order to achieve good dishwashing results, the dishwasher needs soft water (water with low mineral content). Hard water leaves a white coating on dishes and the dishwasher.
Contact the local water utility to check the water hardness in your area. This is important to determine
how much detergent and rinse aid to use.
In general, more rinse aid and detergent are needed for hard water.
2. Basic settings
Open the door and press the main power switch.
"Welcome to your new ASKO. This is a first time set up." is shown on the display. It is important
that you choose the right settings to ensure good dishwashing results.

Greener dishwashing
The dishwasher saves energy and water
When using a dishwasher in a residential setting, less energy and water are generally used compared
to washing the dishes by hand.
Do not rinse under running water
Do not rinse the dishes under running water as this will lead to increased energy and water consumption. Simply scrape off large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
Choose a green detergent
Read the environmental declaration on the packaging!
Too much detergent and rinse aid can result in less effective dishwashing and lead to a greater
environmental impact.
Run a fully loaded dishwasher
Save energy and water by waiting until the dishwasher is full before running a program. Use the
Rinse and hold program to rinse the dishes if there are any unpleasant odors.
Run programs at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only lightly soiled, you can select a program with a low temperature.
Select dishwashing program – Eco
This program is the most effective in terms of energy consumption.
Select program mode – Green mode
The dishwasher has different program modes. To save energy and water, use Green mode. (Available
with: Normal , Light)
Open the door a little once the program has finished
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 furnishings must be resistant to any condensation from the
dishwasher.)
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. 160 °F (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 strong heat.
9
Page 10
Loading the dishwasher
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several reasons. Some materials cannot
withstand high temperatures, others can be damaged by dishwasher detergent.
Use caution with, for example, handmade items, fragile decoration, crystal/glassware, silver, copper,
tin, aluminum, 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 . Remember to use a small amount of detergent and to place items
so that they do not touch each other during the wash.
Use rinse aid to improve wash and dry times. Also use rinse aid to achieve clear and spotless results.
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 discolored.
Aluminum
Aluminum can lose its shine if washed in a dishwasher. However, good quality aluminum 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 such cases, the handles may loosen.
Loading affects the results
Load the dishes carefully to ensure the best washing and drying results with the lowest possible
energy and water consumption. Give your dishwasher the best chance to reach and clean all surfaces,
as well as to dry the dishes as thoroughly as possible.
• All dirty surfaces should face in and down!
• 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.
• Place the upper basket in its highest position when dishwashing very large plates.
• Make sure small items cannot fall through the dishwasher basket; place them in the cutlery
basket.
NOTE!
Check that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The baskets
The dishwasher includes an upper, a lower, and a cutlery basket.
The basket appearance may differ depending on the configuration.
10
Page 11
Loading the dishwasher
Upper basket
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates, and saucers in the upper basket. Place all soiled surfaces
down! Place wine glasses on the wine glass shelf. Place knives in the knife stand on the right.
Foldable tines
The foldable tines can be folded up or down to make it easier to load pots, bowls, and glasses. Release the foldable tines by pressing the catch inward before adjusting their position.
Raising the upper basket
1. Pull out the upper basket.
2. Grab the sides of the upper basket with both hands and lift it up.

Lowering the upper basket
1. Pull out the upper basket.
2. While holding the basket, pull out the two locking handles on either side to lower the upper
basket.
Middle basket
The middle basket with the spray pipe is suitable for low items.
The middle basket's utensils basket has space for ladles, whisks, serving cutlery and similar items.
Washing larger items
The two baskets in the middle basket can be removed, or the entire middle basket can be removed,
to create more space between the upper and lower baskets if larger items are being washed.
Lower basket
Place plates, side plates, serving dishes, pots, and cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket.
Place pots and pans in the right rear of the lower basket for the best cleaning results from the two
rear spray nozzles (WideSpray™), which are intended for these types of dishes.
12
Page 13
Loading the dishwasher
Foldable tines
Lower the foldable tines when washing large pots. Release the foldable tines by pressing the catch
inward before adjusting their position. In the rear right part of the lower basket, half of the foldable
tines can be folded when washing, for example, stoneware or a large pan.
Vase and bottle holder
Washing large plates
Move adjustable tines and their mounts to widen the distance between the tine rows to adapt the
lower basket to plates with a diameter greater than 9 3/4" (25 cm).
Cutlery basket
Place cutlery with the handles facing down, except for knives, and spread them out as much as
possible. Ensure that spoons do not stack inside each other.
The cutlery basket is best placed in the middle at the front of the lower basket to best utilize dishwashing performance from the unique spray nozzle (Power Zone Cutlery™), which is intended for
the cutlery basket.

Using the dishwasher
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! Liquid hand-washing detergent must not be used as the foam
that forms prevents the dishwasher from operating effectively.
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 cannot 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 through the directions for these
products carefully.
NOTE!
Optimal washing and drying results are achieved by using normal dishwasher detergent together
with separately dispensed rinse aid.

Drain 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 drain 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.

0.6" (14
mm)
Max. 373/8''
Installation instructions
The drain 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 1/2''.
The drain hose may be extended by a maximum of 87" (2.2 m) (the total length of the drain hose
must not exceed 177" (4.5 m)). Any joins and connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of
at least 1/2''. However, the drain hose should ideally be replaced with a new hose without joins.
No part of the drain hose may be more than 37 3/8'' above the bottom of the dishwasher.
Attach the drain hose with a hose clamp. Ensure that the drain 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 supply valve. The water supply valve 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 supply valve and allow the pressure to settle for
a while. Check that all connections are watertight.
39
Page 40
Installation instructions
Water supply
The machine can be connected to either a cold or a hot (max. 160 °F (70 °C)) water supply. The
water pressure should be 4.2-140 psi (0.03-1.0 MPa).
Connection to cold water supply
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. 160 °F (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 strong heat. See Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be found on the serial number plate. This specification
must match the electricity supply.
The power outlet for the appliance shall be installed in a cabinet or on a wall adjacent to the undercounter space in which the appliance is to be installed. Do not use an extension cord for this appliance.
The access hole for the electrical supplie must be round and smooth and no bigger than 1 1/2'' in
diameter. If the partition is metal, it needs to be covered with an edge protector.
Use caution when the appliance is installed or removed to reduce the likelihood of damage to the
power cord.
Grounding instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance
is equipped with a power cord fitted with an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate power outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING!
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it does
not fit the power outlet, have an appropriate power outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
