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.
Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher for service or discarding.
To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.
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.
9 WARNING
STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNINGS! This product can expose you to chemicals including vinyl chloride, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

system / special salt

Wat er sof t eni ng syst em / 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).

Water softening system / special salt en-us

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.
NOTICE
Detergent will destroy the water softening system! Never pour detergent into the salt dispenser.
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.

Using detergents with salt component

Deter gent wi t h 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.

Switching off low salt indicator / water softening system

Swi t c h i n g of f wa t er s of t eni ng syst em
If the use of combined detergents with a salt component impairs the low salt indicator P on the control panel or the text on the display window at the top @ (enough salt for x rinse cycles), the displays can be switched off.
Proceed as described under “Setting water softening system” and set the value to 0-8. The water softening system and salt refill indicator are now switched off.

Glass and silverware damage

Causes:
Glass type.
Type of dishwasher detergent.
Water temperature of the wash
cycle.
Recommendation:
Use only glasses and porcelain
which the manufacturer
designates as dishwasher-safe.
Use a detergent which protects
silverware.
Use less intensive wash cycles
and take glass and silverware
out of the dishwasher as soon as
possible after the wash cycle
ends.

Loading the racks

For best dishwashing results, observe the following when loading the dishwasher:
Do not pre-wash items with
loosely attached food soil.
Remove all food particles, bones,
toothpicks and excessive grease.
Pre-treat items having burned-on,
baked-on or starchy soils.
Load dishes in the dishwasher
racks so the insides of bowls,
pots and pans are facing the
spray arms.
Avoid nesting and contact points
between dishes.
Separate items of dissimilar
metals. Use care to not block
movement of the spray arms.
Only wash household dishware
and kitchenware rated as
dishwasher-safe.
Refer to the Dishware Materials
section for more information
about dishware suitability.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not load the dishwasher with paper products, plastic bags, packing materials or anything other than normal, dishwasher safe dishware and kitchenware.
Loading the upper rack
Ensure items do not protrude through the bottom of the racks and block the spray arms.
Note: When pushing the upper
rack 12 into the dishwasher, push it until it stops against the back of the tub so the upper rack spray arm 1: connects to the water supply at the back of the tub. Do not push racks in using the door.
Loading the lower rack
Place large items in the lower rack 9". Load pots, pans and bowls upside down. Do not block the vent hole 1J with tall baking sheets. Load these items on the right side of the dishwasher.

Loading the silverware basket

Place knives and sharp utensils with their handles up and forks and spoons with their handles down. If large or oddly-shaped items are loaded in the silverware basket, be sure they do not nest together.
9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY! The sharp points and edges of knives and other sharp utensils can cause serious injury. Load knives and other sharp utensils with edges down. Do not allow children to handle or play near knives and sharp utensils.
This dishwasher is equipped with a silverware drawer that should accommodate most silverware loading needs.
However, if you are washing while the silverware drawer has been removed, or with excess silverware, a silverware basket is also included.
When loading the silverware basket you should avoid excessive contact points and nesting of similar items (allowing two spons to rest inside one another).
A good way to avoid excessive contact points is to load the silverware basket with the lids closed, inserting each piece of silverware into one of the individual slots.

Unloading the dishwasher

When unloading the dishwasher, to prevent water from dripping onto dry dishes, unload the lower rack 9" first. Next, unload the silverware basket 1j followed by the upper rack 12, and then the third rack (if equipped).
Note: Dishes are more likely to chip
when unloading before cooling.
