Safety instructions

Delivery

Immediately check the packaging and dishwasher for any damage which may have been caused in transit. Do not use a damaged appliance, but consult your supplier.

Please dispose of packaging material properly:

The corrugated cardboard consists mainly of waste paper.

The polystyrene moulded parts have been foamed without any CFCs.

The polyethylene film (PE) consists partly of secondary raw material.

The wooden frames (if fitted) are made of residual wood and are untreated.

The hoops (if fitted) consist of polypropylene (PP).

Installation

Install and connect the appliance according to the installation and assembly instructions.

The dishwasher must NOT be connected to the power supply during installation.

Ensure that the protective conductor system of the domestic electricity supply has been installed correctly. Electrical connection conditions must correspond with the specifications on the rating plate of the dishwasher.

In order for your dishwasher to become serve@Home capable, you will need

a special accessory, the System Interface (available from your specialist supplier). Please follow the enclosed installation instructions, and install the system interface in the chamber located at the front of the dishwasher.

If the dishwasher is to be installed

in a high-sided unit, ensure that the unit is attached properly and also at the rear.

Built-under and built-in appliances should always be installed under a continuous work surface which is attached to the adjacent cupboards, in order to ensure that the appliance is entirely stable.

After the appliance has been installed, the mains plug should still be easily accessible.

Not on all models:

The plastic housing on the water input contains an electrically operated valve. The connecting wires are inside the inlet hose. Do not cut through this hose and do not immerse the plastic housing in water.

Warning

For safety reasons, if the appliance is not fitted in a recess, thereby making a side wall accessible, the door hinge area should be covered at the side.

(Risk of injury)

Covers are available as optional accessories from customer services or specialist stores.

In daily use

Warning

Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be placed in the baskets either flat or with the points downwards.

Use the dishwasher only in the household and only for its designed purpose, i.e. for washing domestic dishes.

Do not lean or sit on the open door. The appliance could tip.

Please note that free-standing appliances may tip over if the baskets are overloaded.

The water in the appliance is not drinking water.

Do not add any solvents to the washing chamber. Danger of explosion!

Open the door carefully when the programme is still running. Water could spray out of the appliance.

To prevent injuries, e.g. caused by stumbling, open the dishwasher only briefly in order to load and unload the dishwasher.

Read and observe the safety information and instructions for use on the packaging for cleaning and rinsing agents.

Children in the household

Do not let infants play or operate the dishwasher.

Keep cleaning and rinsing agents out of the reach of infants. These may cause chemical burns in the mouth, throat and eyes or asphyxiation.

Keep infants away from the open dishwasher. It could contain residue of the cleaning agent.

If a fault occurs

Repairs or other work on the dishwasher should only be carried out by a qualified specialist.

The dishwasher must be disconnected from the electricity supply before any repairs or other work are started. Pull the mains plug out of the wall socket or switch off at the fuse box. Grasp the plug to remove it from the socket; do not tug on the cable. Turn the water off at the tap.

When disposing of old appliances

Appliances that have reached the end of their service life should be rendered inoperable in order to exclude the possibility of subsequent accidents. Pull the mains plug out of the wall socket, cut through the connecting cable and disable the door lock.

Take the appliance to a designated waste disposal centre.

Warning

Children could get locked in the appliance (risk of suffocation) or get stuck in other positions.

Therefore: Remove the mains plug, cut the mains wire and set aside. Damage the door lock so that the door can no longer be closed.

Before using your appliance for the first time

Before you can use your appliance for the first time, you must select the language. When the appliance has been switched on, the following display is output:

d	M	±	< DE EN FR NL IT EL > + Start
	OK

The language abbreviation ªDEº for ªDeutschº (German) is flashing. If you want to select a different language,

press ± or + 3 repeatedly until the

abbreviation of your desired language flashes.

Confirm the language selection by pressing M/OK 2 .

All following optical character messages will be displayed in the selected language.

Chosen the wrong language

The following steps will take you back to the language selection:

1.Switch off the device.

2.Switch on the device. Press the button

M/OK 2 until the language selection is displayed.

3.Select the desired language and confirm your selection.

Providing operating materials

To operate the dishwasher you will require salt (only for appropriate water hardness, see chapter ªAdjusting

the softening systemº), rinse aid,

detergent.

Only use products which are suitable for the dishwasher.

Before using the appliance for the first time and after selecting the language, fill with salt (if required) and rinse aid and adjust the softening system. Proceed as described in the chapters ªFilling with saltº, ªFilling with rinse aidº and ªAdjusting the softening systemº.

Setting up the water

softener

In order to provide satisfactory rinsing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e., containing little or no lime, otherwise water stains will be left behind on the dishes and interior containers.

If the tap water exceeds a certain level of hardness, it must be softened, i.e., decalcified, so that it can be used in the dishwasher.

This is achieved by adding a special salt to the water softener inside the dishwasher.

The water softener, that is the required amount of salt, is set up according to how hard the tap water is.

The softening system must be adjusted before the appliance is used for the first time or if the water hardness changes.

Determine the degree of hardness of your tap water. Your water utilities company or customer service will advise you.

Water hardness table

Switch on the appliance with the main switch 1 . The main menu is

displayed (if switching on the appliance for the first time, only when a language has been selected and dispensers have been filled with salt (if required) and rinse aid).

Keep pressing button M/OK 2 until the ªHardnessº setting is displayed.

Using the buttons ± or + 3 , select the set value between 0 and 7 which corresponds with the degree of hardness of your tap water in the following table. The factory setting is ªHardness 4º.

Press the button M/OK 2 The set value is saved and you are returned to the Start menu.

If the setting is ª0º the softening system is switched off. Possible lack of salt will not be indicated.

Filling in the salt

Note

If the hardness of your mains water corresponds to the device's index value (see

chapter ªSetting up the softening systemº), you do not need to fill

in the salt because the operation will not use any salt. If the set values to are displayed, salt must be added.

During the rinse cycle the salt is being washed automatically from the salt compartment into the softening system where it will dissolve the lime.

The lime-containing solution drains from the dishwasher. Afterwards the softening system is ready to be loaded again.

This regeneration cycle will only work if the salt is dissolved in water.

After switching on the device, lack of salt is indicated by the display ªRefill Saltº. (This display will no longer appear once you have set the softening system to the value .)

Open the screw-type cap of the compartment 25 .

Before operating the device for the first time you must pour 1 litre of water into the salt compartment.

Then you must refill salt (not table salt) using the supplied salt filling aid until the salt compartment is full (max 1.5 kg). When you refill the salt, water is being displaced and drains off. Therefore the refilling must take place shortly before switching on the device. (In order to avoid corrosion). This way the overflowing salt solution is diluted and flushed immediately. Then clean the filling area of salt residues and screw the compartment lid back on without tilting the lid.

As soon as a sufficiently high salt solution has formed the display ªRefill Saltº will disappear.

If you do not want to wait until the display disappears but you want to wash immediately, confirm the refilling of the salt using the button M/OK 2 .

If you do not want to refill the salt now you can skip the display ªRefill Saltº by pressing the button M/OK 2 .

Do not pour detergent into the container for special salt. This would destroy the water softener.

Depending on the washing frequency and the hardness setting, the regeneration salt may not have to be topped up for several months.

Filling with rinse aid

Rinse aid is used in washing mode to ensure that glasses are sparkling and utensils are stain-free.

When the appliance is switched on, low rinse aid level is indicated by ºRefill rinse aidº. You can add rinse aid either when the appliance door is completely open or ± for a more comfortable posture ± when the door is half open.

Open the rinse aid dispenser 30 by pressing the button on the dispenser cover and open the cover. When the door is half open, also pull out the hinged filling aid until it locks into position.

Fill in the rinse aid slowly and take care not to overfill. The right amount is indicated by the level indicator at the compartment not being illuminated when the door is fully opened and by the display ªRefill Rinse Aidº no longer being lit.

Close the lid of the compartment until it audibly clicks into place. If necessary, the filling aid will be re-inserted automatically.

If you want to fill in the rinse aid at a later time you can skip the display ªRefill Rinse Aidº by pressing the button M/OK 2 .

If necessary, you can change the amount of rinse aid that is added during the operation. In order to do this, select the option ªRinse Aid Amountº as described in the chapter ªDevice Set-upº under the heading ªOptions/Basic Settingsº.

rinse±aid control

Fill when door is fully open.

Filling when the door is half open.

Note

Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers. Spilt rinse aid may result in excessive foam formation in the next rinse cycle. Therefore, remove any spilt rinse aid with a cloth.

Not suitable for

the dishwasher

The following should not be cleaned in the dishwasher:

Wooden cutlery and utensils ± these will leach out and become unsightly; even the utilised stickers are not suitable for the temperatures which occur.

Sensitive ornamental glasses, craft utensil and vases, special antique or irretrievable utensils. These ornaments are not dishwasher-proof. Plastic parts sensitive to hot water. Copper and tin utensils.

Utensils which are soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.

Absorbent materials such as sponges and cloths.

Aluminium and silver parts have

a tendency to discolour and fade during the wash cycle. Even some types of glass (e.g. crystal glass objects) may turn cloudy after many wash cycles.

Recommendation:

In future buy utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof.

Damage to glassware and other dishes

Possible causes:

type of glass or manufacturing process chemical composition of detergent water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.

Suggested remedy:

Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been marked 'dishwasher±proof' by the manufacturer.

Use a mild detergent that is described as 'kind to dishes'. If necessary, seek further information from detergent manufacturers.

Select a programme with as low a temperature and as short a duration as possible.

To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme has ended.

Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher

Loading the dishwasher

Scrape off any large amounts of left-over food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water. Place objects in the dishwasher in such a way that

items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are stood upside down,

curved items, or those with recesses, should be at a slant so that water can run off,

they are stacked securely and cannot tip over,

they do not prevent the spray arms from rotating while washing takes place.

Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the baskets.

Removing the dishes

To prevent water dripping from the top basket onto the dishes in the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the lower basket first and then the top basket.
