IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded to
a metal, permanent wiring system or
an equipment grounding conductor
must be run with the circuit

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.

intended function, which is the
washing of household dishware and
kitchenware rated as dishwasher
safe.
Use only detergents or rinsing agents
recommended for use in a
dishwasher, and keep them out of
the reach of children.
9 CAUTION
When loading items to be
washed:
■ Locate sharp items so they
are not likely to damage the
door seal.
■ Load knives and other sharp
utensils with their 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 your
dishwasher unless all
enclosure panels are in
place.
■ Do not tamper with or
override controls and
interlocks.
Do not abuse, sit or stand on the
door or dish racks of the dishwasher.
9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY!
To avoid risk of injury, always
use caution when opening the
door during or following a wash
cycle as hot water or steam
may escape. Do not fully open
the door until water noises have
stopped and steam has
subsided.
NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential

Use only detergent specifically

results, use fresh powdered
dishwashing detergent or detergent
tabs.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage:
■ Do not use hand dishwashing
products in your dishwasher.
■ Do not use too much detergent if
your water is soft. Using too much
detergent with soft water may
cause etching in glassware and
fine china.
This dishwasher uses less water than
most, therefore, less detergent is
required. With soft water,
1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent
will clean most loads. The detergent
dispenser cup has lines that measure
detergent to 1 tablespoon (15 ml)
and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml).
3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent
will completely fill the detergent
dispenser.
Note: If you do not know the
hardness of your water supply, use
15 ml of detergent. Increase the
amount if necessary to the least
amount required to get your
kitchenware clean.

Auto Smartest cycle, with most flexible soil
sensing, which is ideal for mixed dishware
and food soils.
Normal
(see note at
bottom of table)
Recommended for daily, regular or typical
use to completely wash a full load of
normally soiled dishes.
Rinse Use this cycle if you need to pre-rinse
dishes to avoid odors. Place unrinsed
dishes inside the dishwasher and select
the Rinse cycle. Uses less water than
hand rinsing and very low energy.

Note: The Energy Guide label was based on the Normal soil sensing cycle as
follows: The unit was tested without any rinse aid (liquid) in the rinse aid
dispenser 9". A single dose of detergent was inserted into the detergent
dispenser 9*, with no detergent being used in the prewash. The unit was not
subjected to truncated testing per the definitions in the test procedure. We
recommend that dish loads such as the one in the energy certification test
have the rack position set in the highest position.

Delay
Allows you to delay the start time of
your dishwasher up to 24 hours.
SpeedPerfect™*
SpeedPerfect™ is an option that
allows saving time without sacrificing
wash and dry performance. Selecting
this option ensures the same final
temperatures as the underlying cycle
by starting the heat period at an
earlier phase in the program.
Selecting this option also increases
energy consumption while reducing
cycle time.
Delicate
This option’s reduced time and
temperature are best for lightly soiled
items with easy to remove food soils.
The option also reduces the
likelihood of cloudy glasses. Rinse
aid is recommended for the high
gloss drying function (even when
using combination detergents).
Sanitize
This function increases the
temperatures and retains them for an
extra long time to obtain a defined
disinfecting performance. Continuous
use of this function increases the
hygiene status. This additional option
is ideal for cleaning items such as
chopping boards and baby bottles.
The sanitize LED will light when
sanitation requirements are met.
Using the Sanitize option may also
improve drying.
Extra Shine®*
Used in combination with a wash
cycle (except Rinse), the Extra
®
Shine
and extends the drying time to further
enhance drying results and provide a
brilliant shine.
option raises the temperature
Extra Dry
An increased temperature during the
final rinse and an extended drying
phase ensure that plastic parts dry
better. There is a slight increase in
the energy consumption.
ExtraScrub
Perfect for a mixed load. You can
wash very soiled pots and pans in
the lower rack together with normally
soiled utensils in the upper rack. The
spray pressure in the lower rack is
intensified, the rinsing temperature is
increased slightly.

9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY!
To avoid risk of injury, always
use caution when opening the
door during or following a wash
cycle as hot water or steam
may escape. Do not fully open
the door until water noises have
stopped and steam has
subsided.
Protection against unintentional operation
Your dishwasher is equipped with a
function that helps to prevent
unintentional operation (e.g. by
children).
After setting the dishwasher, the
dishwasher door has to be closed
within 4 seconds, otherwise the
operation will be paused. There will
be a signal on the control panel
advising you to press the Start button
again and close the door.
This function will be activated when:
■ pressing Start to begin a wash
cycle
■ setting Delay time and pressing
Start
■ opening the door while Delay time
is active
■ opening the door during a wash
cycle.
AquaSensor
AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical
measuring device which measures
the cleanliness of the rinse water.
The AquaSensor is used according
to the wash cycle. If the AquaSensor
is active, “clean” rinse water can be
transferred to the next rinse and
water consumption can be reduced
by 0.8–1-5 gal (3–6 liters). If the
rinse water is not yet clear, the water
is drained and is replaced with fresh
water. In the automatic wash cycles
the temperature and running time
can also be adjusted to the degree of
soiling.
Switching the appliance on
1.
Turn the water supply on fully.
2.
Open the door.
3.
Press the On/Off button (.
The display of the last selected
wash cycle flashes. This wash
cycle remains selected if no other
wash cycle button 0 is pressed.
The expected wash cycle duration
flashes on the display 8.
Select any desired option.
4.
Press Start button P.
Wash cycle sequence starts.
Note: Your dishwasher is protected
against unintentional operation. If the
appliance door remains open for
more than 4 seconds after pressing
the Start button, the operation will be
paused. Press the Start button again
