2 INSTALLATION
2.1 Aligning the appliance
To ensure a perfect locking function and prevent leaks in the area of the door, the appliance must be aligned precisely via the height­adjustable feet. If the appliance is integrated, the middle rear height­adjustable foot can be adjusted from the front.
When installing the appliance, please note:
Using the height-adjustable feet, raise the appliance
until the housing touches the worktop.
The installation instructions (drilling template) are re-
quired for attaching the furniture front to integrated and fully integrated appliances.
The tensile force of the door springs in integrated
and fully integrated appliances can be adjusted to the weight of the furniture door (See Door spring
point).
To prevent injury, a side cover 481271 can be fitted
near the hinges of appliances which are fitted to the end, built in or under or are free-standing.
2.2 Electrical connection
Connect the appliance to a correctly installed earthed socket only. Comply with the specifications on the rating plate.
2.3 Water connection
If the appliance is connected to the drain with the standard hose length, the max. permitted height from the floor is 90 cm. If the drain­age hose is extended, a max. height of 80 cm must not be exceeded. The water connection (3/4 inch) requires a conventional water line with a water pressure of at least 0.5 bar (0.5 at.) (when the tap is turned on, the water flow rate must be more than 8 l/min.). If the water pressure is more than 10 bar (10 at.), a pressure reducing valve must be in-stalled. The appliances can be connected to warm water up to 60 °C. How­ever, it is recommended to connect the appliance to cold water (better drying and washing results).

4 COMPONENTS
4.1 Module
4.1.1 Regeneration electronics
The electronics determine, in comparison with the water hardness set on the appliance, the volume of water which is possible until the softening system is exhausted.
The number of rinse cycles is counted. Regeneration then takes place once the maximum possible number of rinse cycles has been reached.
The sequence characteristics of the regeneration electronics are des­cribed under Initial start-up / Replacing the electronics.
4.1.2 Warm water detection
If the water running into the final rinse cycle is hotter than 45 °C, the temperature in the final rinse cycle is increased to 72 °C in order to increase the inherent heat of the dishes. The heat exchanger is not filled.
4.1.3 Power failure
The electronics module has a power failure memory function which ensures that the current rinse programme continues in the event of a power failure or programme interruption.
4.1.4 Sensors
All outgoing signals from the door switch, the level switch, the NTC sensor and the refill switches are recorded and evaluated by the microprocessor at the required time.
815_58300000120057_ara_en_d.doc – 25.05.11 Seite 8 von 60
4.1.5 Water supply
The appliance realises that the tap is turned off if no signal is received from the flow sensor after 30 s.
4.1.6 Consumers
The consumers such as the valves, the detergent and rinse aid dis­pensers and the circulation pump are actuated by triacs (see listing of triacs). The drainage pump and the instantaneous water heater are switched on by relays.
4.1.7 Listing the triacs
If replacing a module due to a defective triac, ensure that the actuated component is also checked.
Before replacing a module, always start the customer service test programme.
Before replacing a module, follow the ESD instruc­tions.
Before replacing a module due to a defective triac, test the actuated component.

4.2 Actuator
The thermohydraulic system consists of a metal cylinder with plunger. The cylinder is filled with a substance which expands greatly when heated. The heat source is a PTC (positive temperature coefficient) (1) which is in direct contact with the metal cylinder (4). A strong pressure spring (3) returns the plunger (6) back to its original position when the heat source is switched off.
When voltage is applied to the PTC (1), the PTC heats up and transfers the heat to the wax-filled metal cylinder (4). The wax expands and forces the plunger (6) out of the cylinder. The plunger (6) transfers the mechanical movement to the release mechanism for dispensing the detergent and rinse-aid. If the heat source is switched off, the volume of wax is reduced by the cooling process. The pressure spring (3) returns the plunger (6) back to its original position.

4.3 Aqua sensor (optional)
The infrared light-emitting diode (B) and the photodiode (A) are loca­ted opposite each other in a U-shaped translucent housing on a board.
The infrared light-emitting diode (B) transmits infrared light through the detergent solution flowing between the U-shaped housing. Depending on the turbidity, the light-sensitive base of the photodiode becomes conductive.
The measurement is analysed in turbidity ranges. The Aqua sensor is active:
in the prerinse cycle -> decision on water change before washing
in the wash cycle -> washing temperature and rewash time
depending on turbidity range (6 turbidity ranges)
at the end of the wash cycle via the type and number of
intermediate rinse cycles (3 turbidity ranges)
48 programme structures are possible in the automatic programme.
In each programme sequence in which the Aqua sensor is active the sensor is also calbrated.
If the calibration is defective, a fault is written to the fault memory of the module, the measurement is set to turbid and a maximum pro­gramme sequence occurs.

4.4 Aqua Stop valve
The Aqua Stop valve consists of two solenoid valves (A) in a row, the filler and safety valves. These valves are actuated in parallel. There are two filters on the screw connection for the tap. Under the filters is the flow limiter.
4.4.1 Safety function
The safety function may be actuated via the safety level chamber or via the float in the base pan.
The Aqua Stop valve is enclosed by a housing. The housing is connected to the bottom pan by a leakage water hose (sleeve of the inlet hose) (D). The inlet hose (C) and the electric control cable (B) for the solenoid valve are situated in the leakage water hose (D). If leaks occur in the area of the valve or inlet hose, these are conveyed into the base pan via the leakage water hose.

4.5 Flow sensor
The flow sensor is integrated in the water supply and registers the amount of incoming water.
It consists of a housing, a turbine (1) with permanent magnets (4) and a board with reed switch (2).
The water sets the turbine (1) moving. The magnets (4) attached to the turbine (1) actuate a reed switch (2) twice for each revolution.
The generated impulses are counted by the electronics module and cannot be measured.

4.8 Optical low rinse-aid sensor (optional)
The optical low rinse-aid sensor consists of a transmitter diode and a receiver diode.
A light beam is transmitted from the transmitter diode (A) to the receiver diode (B) via a prism (C). If the dispenser is full, the light beam in the prism is scattered. The received signal is weaker than the transmitted one.
If the dispenser is empty, the light beam in the prism is reflected. The received signal is the same as the transmitted signal.
The module evaluates the received signal and the refill indicator LED is actuated.

4.10 Water softening system
The water softening system (ion exchanger) is a container which is filled with a fine-grained synthetic resin granulate. This synthetic resin replaces calcium and magnesium ions in the water with sodium ions situated on its surface.
Technical specifications: Designation Value Unit
Capacity: Fine-grained salt Coarse-grained salt
approx. 1.3 approx. 0.9
kg
4.10.1 Water softening
The inlet water with its hardness constituents is conveyed via the synthetic resin. Calcium and magnesium are bonded to the surface of the exchange compound while sodium ions are released into the water. When all sodium ions have been replaced with ions of the hardness constituents (Fig.1), the capacity of the water softening system is exhausted and it must be regenerated.
4.10.2 Regeneration
To make the ion exchanger functional again, a concentrated saline solution (sodium chloride) is conveyed out of the salt dispenser through the water softening system. On account of the large excess the sodium ions force the calcium and magnesium ions out of the saline solution and they attach themselves again to the exchange compound (Fig. 2). The ion exchanger is now loaded and ready for use again.
