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:
Risk of fire, electrical shock, or serious 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.

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
certain the electrical supply has
been correctly installed and the
dishwasher has been properly

chloride-containing products
can damage your dishwasher
and may present health
hazards!
9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY!

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
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.
Safe Operation
Use this dishwasher only for its
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
dishwashers are not intended for
licensed food establishments.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Child Safety
To reduce risk of injury, do not allow
children to play in or on the
dishwasher.
When children become old enough
to operate the appliance, it is the
responsibility of the parents/legal
guardians to ensure the children are
instructed in safe practices by
qualified persons.
Proper Care and Maintenance
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.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not
allow water to remain in your
dishwasher systems through
extended periods of freezing
temperatures. Freezing temperatures
can damage the water fill valve and
potentially other components of your
dishwasher.
NOTICE
It is highly recommended for the end
user to become familiar with the
procedure to shut off the incoming
water supply and the procedure to
shut off the incoming power supply.
See the Installation Instructions or
contact your installer for more
information.

+ Water softening
system / special salt
Water softening system / special salt
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.
5.
If required, add salt to the
dishwasher salt chamber as
shown. ~ "Using special
dishwasher salt" on page 15

Using special dishwasher
salt
As soon as the low salt indicator
lights up on the digital display @,
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 1Z.
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
Detergent with a salt 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.
