Water softener
In order to rinse dishes and glasses
satisfactorily, the dishwasher requires soft
water, i.e. containing little or no lime,
otherwise water stains will be left behind
on crockery and glasses, etc.
If the tap water exceeds a certain level of
hardness, it must be softened, i.e.
decalcified, so that it can be used in the
dishwasher.
This is achieved by adding a special salt
to the water softener inside the
dishwasher.
The water softener, that is the required
amount of salt, is set up according to how
hard the tap water is.
Setting up the water softener
Determine the level of hardness of your
tap water. Your local water company or
service agent can help you with this.
Identify setting from the following water
hardness table.
Hold down the programme button B
and switch on the main switch
then release the buttons.
The display 5 flashes and buttons
A and B illuminate.
(Hardness value 2 was set at the
factory).
1 ,
To change the setting: Press
programme button
Each depression of the button
increases the set value by one (0–3).
If buttons
the maximum hardness value has been
reached.
If the hardness value is now increased
again, the illuminated buttons go out
and the hardness value is set to 0 (no
buttons illuminated).
Switch off the mains switch 1 .
The set value is stored in the appliance.
Approx. 4 litres of water are required for
regenerating the water softening system.
The overall water consumption per load
can therefore be increased by between 0
and a maximum of 4 litres according to the
water hardness setting.

Filling the special salt
container
How the salt works
While washing is taking place, salt is
automatically rinsed out of the salt
container into the water softener where it
dissolves the lime in the water.
The dissolved lime is pumped out of the
dishwasher. The water softening system is
then ready for the next load.
This process of regeneration can only
function when the salt is dissolved in
water.
Unscrew the lid on the salt container
Before you use the dishwasher for the first
time, pour approx. 1 litre of water into the
salt container.
Use the enclosed salt filler.
Refill with salt (do not use edible salt)
until the salt dispenser is full (max. 1.5 kg).
When the salt dispenser is being refilled,
water is displaced and drains away.
Therefore always refill the salt dispenser
immediately before switching on the
dishwasher (to prevent corrosion). As a
result, the overflowing salt solution will be
immediately diluted and rinsed out. Then
remove salt residue from the filler area and
screw on the dispenser cover, ensuring
that it is not fitted askew.
24 .

The LOW SALT indicator 5 on the front
panel will light up initially but will extinguish
again after a short period when the salt
solution has become sufficiently
concentrated.
If the switch is set to ”0”, it is
not necessary to add any salt,
as none is consumed while the
dishwasher is operating. If the
switch is set between ”1” and
”3”, then salt must be added.
Do not pour detergent into the
container for special salt. This
would destroy the water
softener.
LOW SALT indicator
Salt should be added as soon as the LOW
SALT indicator
illuminates. For models that do not have
an indicator in the fascia panel, salt should
be added as soon as the coloured dot in
the lid on the salt container
longer visible.
Depending on the washing frequency and
the hardness setting, the regeneration salt
may not have to be topped up for several
months.

Filling the rinse-aid
container
The purpose of a rinse-aid is to prevent
the formation of water marks on tableware
and utensils, and to ensure that glasses
are clean and sparkling. The rinse-aid is
consumed during the washing process.

Not suitable for
the dishwasher
The following should not be
cleaned in the dishwasher:
Wooden cutlery and utensils – these
will leach out and become unsightly;
even the utilised stickers are not
suitable for the temperatures which
occur.
Sensitive ornamental glasses, craft
utensil and vases, special antique
or irretrievable utensils. These
ornaments 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.
Washing contents of UPPER
RACK only
* not on all models
If you only have a small number of dishes
to wash, put them all into the upper rack
and press the UPPER RACK button. This
saves energy and water. If you select the
UPPER RACK function, the lower rack
must be empty. Add a reduced amount of
detergent compared to that which is
recommended for a full load.

Arranging crockery, glasses,
etc. in the dishwasher
Loading the dishwasher
Scrape off any large amounts of
left-over food. It is not necessary to
rinse the dishes under running water.
Place objects in the dishwasher in such
a way that
items such as cups, glasses,
pots/pans, etc. are stood upside
down,
curved items, or those with
recesses, should be at a slant so
that water can run off,
they are stacked securely and
cannot tip over,
they do not prevent the spray arms
from rotating while washing takes
place.
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.
Shelf *
* not on all models
Lean tall glasses and those with long
stems against the shelf – not against other
items to be washed.
Small accessories holder*
* some models
Light-weight plastic accessories, e.g. cups,
lids, etc. can be held securely in the small
accessories holder.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on
the additional cup rack. The additional cup
rack can be swivelled in or out as required.
12
en
Adjusting position of basket *
* not on all models
The top basket can be inserted on either
its upper or lower rollers, according to
requirement. This enables more height to
be gained for bigger dishes in either the
top or bottom basket.
Top basket with side levers
(Rackmatic)
Pull out the top basket.
To lower the basket, press in
succession the two levers on the left
and right sides of the basket. Always
take hold of the side of the basket on
the upper edge, otherwise the basket
will not drop smoothly (and may
damage the utensils).
13
en
To raise the basket, take hold of the
basket on the upper edge and pull
upwards.
Before you re-insert the basket, ensure
that it is at the same height on both
sides. Otherwise, the appliance door
cannot be closed and the upper spray
arm will not connect to the water circuit.
Baking sheet spray head *
* some models
You can clean large baking sheets or
grilles with the baking sheet spray head.
To do this, remove the top basket and
insert the spray head as illustrated in the
diagram.
To ensure that the spray jet can reach all
parts, arrange the baking sheets as
illustrated
(max. 2 baking sheets and 2 grilles).

Detergents
Information about detergents
You can use any brand of liquid or powder
detergent, as well as tablets, that have
been specifically designed for use in
domestic dishwashers. (Do not use normal
washing-up liquid!)
Nowadays there are three types of
dishwasher detergent available:
1. those containing phosphates and
chlorine,
2. those containing phosphates but no
chlorine,
3. those containing neither phosphates
nor chlorine.
When a phosphate-free detergent is used
in conjunction with hard water, there is a
greater possibility that white marks will be
left behind on crockery and glasses, etc.
These can be avoided by pouring an
increased amount of detergent into the
dispenser.
Chlorine-free detergents have a reduced
bleaching effect. This can mean that tea
stains are not completely removed or
plastic items become discoloured.
This can be resolved by:
selecting a higher temperature
programme, or
increasing the amount of detergent,
or
using a detergent that contains
chlorine.
Check the label on the detergent
packaging to determine whether a
particular product is suitable for use with
silverware.
If you have any further questions, we
recommend that you contact the customer
advice departments of the various
detergent manufacturers.
Detergent compartment with
measuring marks
The side of the detergent compartment is
marked with lines to help you determine
how much powder to add.
The capacity of the detergent container is
15 ml up to the bottom line and 25 ml up to
the middle line. When the compartment is
full it contains 40 ml.

Adding detergent
Fill the dispenser 30 with detergent.
Please observe the manufacturer’s
instructions printed on the detergent
packaging when determining the
correct dosage.
Important
Due to the different solvency properties of
the detergent tablets supplied by various
manufacturers, the cleaning efficiency of
the detergent may not be fully utilised by
short programmes. It is recommended to
use washing powder for these
programmes.
If using the “Intensive” programme
(some models), also pour approx.
10–15 ml of detergent onto
the appliance door. If using tablets,
also place a tablet on the appliance
door.
15
en
Reduce costs!
If your dishes are only
moderately dirty, you may be
able to use less detergent than
recommended.
Close the lid on the detergent
compartment.
Press down the lid (1) until it clicks
shut (2).
If you are using detergent in tablet form,
read the manufacturer’s
recommendations on the packaging in
order to
determine where the tablets should be
placed inside the dishwasher (e.g. in
cutlery basket, detergent compartment,
etc.).
Make sure that the lid on the detergent
compartment is closed, even if you are
using tablets.
CAUTION
IMPORTANT NOTE
ON THE USE OF
COMBINED CLEANING
PRODUCTS
Please note the following when using
”combined cleaning products” which
eliminate the need for a rinsing agent or
salt, for example:
Some products with a built-in rinsing
agent are only used to their full effect in
certain programmes.
This type of product does not generally
produce the desired effect with
automatic programmes.
Products which eliminate the need for
regeneration salt can only be used
within a certain water hardness range.
If you wish to use these combined
products, please read the instructions
carefully and heed any notes on the
packaging.
Contact the manufacturer of the cleaning
agent if you have any questions,
particularly if:

resolve most problems that arise during
normal daily usage yourself, without
having to call out a service engineer. Not
only does this save costs, but it also
means that the appliance is available for
use again that much sooner. The following
list of common occurrences and their
remedies should help you identify the
causes of most problems.

the comparison tests on the additional
”Notes on comparison tests” sheet. The
consumption values for the relevant
programmes are given in the introduction.
General
Built-under and integrated appliances
which are subsequently installed as
free-standing appliances must be
secured to prevent them from falling
over, e.g. by screwing them to the wall
or by installing them under a continuous
worktop which is screwed to the
adjoining units.
For Swiss version only:
The appliance can be installed without
difficulty between wooden and plastic
walls in a kitchen range. If the appliance
is not connected via a plug, the
installation side must feature an all-pole
disconnector with a contact gap of at
least 3 mm in order to satisfy the
relevant safety regulations.

Installation
The dishwasher must be connected by
a qualified technician to ensure correct
operation. The specifications for supply,
drainage and connected load must fulfil
the required criteria as stated in the
following paragraphs or in the installation
instructions.
Install the appliance in the following
sequence:
– Check the delivery
– Install the appliance
– Connect the waste water
– Connect the fresh water
– Connect the power supply
Delivery
Your dishwasher was checked at the
factory to ensure that it was in perfect
working order. This may have left some
small water stains in the dishwasher.
These will disappear after the first rinse
cycle.
Installation
The required installation dimensions can
be found in the installation instructions.
Using the height-adjustable feet, adjust the
appliance until it is level. Ensure that the
appliance is standing firmly.
Waste water connection
See the installation instructions for the
required connection steps. If required,
attach a siphon with drainage spigot.
Using the enclosed parts, connect the
waste water hose to the drainage spigot
of the siphon.
Ensure that the drainage hose is not
kinked, crushed or twisted (ensure that
there is no sealing cover which prevents
the waster water from flowing away!).
Fresh water connection
Using the enclosed parts, connect the
fresh water connection to the tap
according to the installation instructions.
Ensure that the fresh water connection is
not kinked, crushed or twisted.
When replacing the appliance, always
connect a new water supply hose to the
water supply. The old supply hose must
not be re-used.
Water pressure:
Minimum 0,05 MPa (0,5 bar) – maximum
1 MPa (10 bar).
If the water pressure is higher, install a
pressure reducing valve.
Flow rate:
Minimum of 10 litres per minute.
Water temperature:
We recommend that you use cold water.
If you do use hot water, the temperature
should not exceed 60 °C.
Electrical connection
Connect the appliance only to 230 V
alternating current via a correctly installed
socket with protective conductor.
See rating plate for required fusing
The socket must be attached near the
dishwasher and be freely accessible.
The connection may be modified by an
electrician only.
Use only a residual-current-operated
circuit-breaker which features the
symbol. Only this circuit breaker
guarantees compliance with the currently
valid regulations.

Waste disposal
Disposal
Old appliances are not worthless rubbish.
Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed
by recycling old appliances.
Pull out the mains plug of the redundant
appliance. Cut off the power cord and
discard with mains plug.
To prevent children from locking
themselves in the appliance and
suffocating, destroy the door lock
and childproof lock (if fitted).
You received your new appliance in
a protective shipping carton. All packaging
materials are environmentally friendly and
recyclable.
Please contribute to a better environment
by disposing of packaging materials in an
environmentally-friendly manner. All plastic
parts of the appliance are identified by
internationally standardised symbols
(e.g. >PS< polystyrene).
When the appliance is being disposed of,
the plastic waste can be sorted for
environmentally-friendly recycling.
Please ask your dealer or inquire at your
local authority about current means of
disposal.
Keep children away from shipping carton
and packaging components. Danger of
suffocation from folding cartons and plastic
film.
Protection from freezing
temperatures
If the appliance is installed in a location
where there is a risk of freezing
temperatures (e.g. in a holiday home), all
water must be completely drained out of
the interior (see “Transporting the
dishwasher”).
Turn OFF the tap, disconnect the supply
hose and allow to drain.

Disposal of the packaging
Please dispose of the packaging
material in an environmentally
friendly manner.
Corrugated cardboard consists
mainly of wastepaper.
The moulded polystyrene parts do
not contain any
chlorofluorohydrocarbons.
The polyethylene film (PE) consists
partly of secondary raw materials.
The wooden frames (if fitted) are
made of untreated residual wood.
The hoops (if fitted) consist
of polypropylene (PP).
Disposal of redundant
appliances
Make redundant appliances unusable
to prevent subsequent accidents.
Dispose of the appliance in an
environmentally friendly manner.
Warning
Children could become locked in the
appliance (risk of suffocation) or find
themselves in other dangerous situations.
