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:
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.
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.
This appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons unless they have been
adequately supervised by a responible person to
ensure that they can use the appliance safely.
Young children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
In daily use
Warning
Knives and other sharp-pointed utensils must be placed
with the points down in the cutlery basket or
horizontally in the utensils basket.
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. There is a risk of hot water spraying 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 nformation and
instructions for use on the packaging for cleaning
and rinsing agents.
Children in the household
If fitted, use the childproof lock. An exact description
can be found in the back of the envelope.
Do not allow children to play with or operate the
appliance.
Keep children away from detergents and rinse aid.
These may cause chemical burns in the mouth,
throat and eyes or asphyxiation.
Keep children away from an open dishwasher. There
could still be detergent residue inside.
If the appliance is installed at eye-level, ensure when
opening and closing the door that children are not
caught or crushed between the appliance door and
the cupboard door situated below.
Damage
The appliance may be repaired and opened up by a
technician only. First disconnect the appliance from
the power supply. Pull out the mains plug (do not tug
the power cord!) or switch off the fuse. Turn off the
tap.
Disposal
Make redundant appliances unusable to prevent
subsequent accidents.
Dispose of the appliance in an environmentally
friendly manner.
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.

You will need to purchase the
following before using the dishwasher
for the first time:
– detergent
– rinse-aid
Adding rinse aid
The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and
clear glasses.
Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers.
Open the cover on the rinse-aid dispenser 28 . To
do this, press the mark (1
) on the cover and
simultaneously lift the cover on the control plate
(2
).
Carefully pour in the rinse aid to just below the edge
of the filler opening.
Close the lid, ensuring that you hear it snap closed.
To prevent excessive foam formation during the next
rinse cycle, remove any rinse aid which has run over
with a cloth.
Adjusting the amount of rinse-aid
The amount of rinse-aid added to the water can be
varied by adjusting the stepless control. The rinse-aid
control has been set to ”4” in the factory.
Do not alter the setting of the rinse-aid control unless
streaks (turn knob towards ”–”) or water marks (turn
knob towards ”+”) are left on the dishes.

Utensils
Not suitable
Cutlery and utensils made of wood.
Fragile decorative glasses, hand-crafted and antique
utensils. These decorative items 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.
Loading the dishwasher
Remove large food remnants.
It is not necessary to rinse them off under running
water.
When loading the dishwasher, ensure that
D
all utensils are secure and cannot fall over.
D
the openings of all receptacles are face down.
D
curved or indented utensils are at an incline,
allowing water to drain.
D
the two spray arms can rotate freely.
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.
Cups and glasses

Cutlery
Cutlery should be placed in the dishwasher always
unsorted and with the eating surface pointing
downwards. The spray jet is then better able to reach
the individual parts.
To prevent injuries, place long, pointed accessories and
knives on the étagère (some models) or on the knife
shelf (available as an accessory).
Folding spikes *
* on applicable models
To improve stacking of pots and pans, the spikes can
be folded down.
