IMPORTANT SAFET Y I NSTRUCT I ONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This dishwasher is provided with
Installation Instructions and this Use
and Care Manual. Read and
understand all instructions before
using the dishwasher.
This dishwasher is intended for use
up to a maximum altitude of
13,000 ft (4,000 meters) above sea
level.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or serious injury, observe the following:
Ri s k of fire, el ect ri cal shock, or s er i ous injury
9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH!
Misuse of the dishwasher can
result in serious injury or death.
Do not use the dishwasher in
any way not covered in this
manual or for any purpose other
than those explained in the
following pages.
9 WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
OR FIRE!
Electrical shock or fire could
result if the electrical supply for
the dishwasher covered in this
manual is incorrectly installed or
if the dishwasher has been
improperly grounded. Do not
use the dishwasher covered in
this manual unless you are

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
9 WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSION!
■ 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.
Before using a dishwasher
that is connected to a hot
water system that has been
unused for two weeks or
longer, 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 explosive, do
not smoke or use an open
flame during this time.
■ When cleaning your
dishwasher with any
cleaning agent, remove all
cookware, utensils or any
foreign material from inside.
Some cleaning agents are
highly acidic and/or caustic
alkaline, which can cause
hydrogen gas to form if
aluminum material is also
inside the dishwasher tub.
Hydrogen gas is explosive.
Refer to the Care and
Maintenance section of the
dishwasher Use and Care
manual for instructions on
how to properly clean your
dishwasher.
9 WARNING
HEALTH HAZARD!
Never use harsh chemicals to
clean your dishwasher. Some
bleach-based products can
damage your dishwasher and
may present health hazards!
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded to
a metal, permanent wiring system or
an equipment grounding conductor
must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the
equipment grounding terminal or
lead on the dishwasher. See the
Installation Instructions included with
this dishwasher for more information
on electrical requirements.
9 WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
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 cord having
an equipment-grounding
conductor.
Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor
can result in risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt
whether the appliance is
properly grounded.

system / special salt
Water sof t eni ng system / speci al sal t
To ensure good rinsing results, the
dishwasher requires soft water, i.e.
water which is low in lime, otherwise
limescale will be deposited on the
utensils and interior container. Tap
water above 7° dH (1.2 mmol/l)
must be softened. The water
is softened with special salt
(regeneration salt) in the water
softening system of the dishwasher.
The setting and therefore the
required amount of salt depends on
the degree of hardness of your tap
water (see following water hardness
table).
Instructions for use of included “Water Hardness Test Strip”
Only use salt designed for automatic
dishwashers. Never use household
water softener salt or table salt.
Follow the instructions below for the
included test strip. (If purchasing a
different test strip, follow
manufacturers instructions).
1.
Run the water at the kitchen sink for 5 minutes.
2.
Dip the end of the test strip with the colored squares into the tap water for 1 second and shake off excess water.
3.
After one minute, compare the test strip to the chart below and determine the Dishwasher Water Softener setting.
4.
Adjust the dishwasher Water
Softener setting. ~ "Adjusting
the water softening system"

Using special dishwasher salt
As soon as the low salt indicator
lights up on the digital display 8,
salt should be topped off. Always
refill with special salt immediately
before switching on the appliance.
This ensures that overrun special salt
solution is immediately washed out
and does not corrode the rinsing tub.
Top off the salt as follows:
1.
Undo the screw plug on the dispenser 1b.
2.
Fill the dispenser with water (required only when switching on the appliance for the first time).
3.
Add salt as illustrated (do not use table salt, salt tablets or salt for use with whole house water softeners).
The water is displaced and runs
out.
For more information about buying
dishwasher salt, please contact
Customer Service 1-800-944-2904.
Using detergents with salt component
Deter gent wi t h a sal t component
If combined detergents with a salt
component are used, special salt can
usually be omitted up to a water
hardness of 21° dH (37° fH,
26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l). If the water
hardness is over 21° dH, salt must
be used.
NOTICE
Detergent will destroy the water
softening system! Never pour
detergent into the salt dispenser.
