Wooden cutlery and crockery or items with wooden parts may disco­lour and fade. The glue used in these items is not dishwasher-proof and wooden handles may be come loose after being washed in a dishwasher. Craft items, antiques, valuable vases and decorative glassware are also not suitable for dishwashers. Plastic items (eg Tupperware) which are not heat resistant may melt or loose shape due to high temperature in the dishwasher. Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items may discolour or become
matt.

Clouding may occur on glasses and delicate glassware after frequent washing. Do not wash delicate glassware, or glassware containing lead crystal in a dishwasher. Wash delicate glassware by hand in­stead. Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing. Residues like egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore, please clean the resi­dues from silver immediately after use.

adding the detergent or detergent tablet
Only use detergents specically de­signed for use in dishwashers. To be more environmentally friendly, please use no more than the correct amount of detergent.
Please follow the steps below to ll the detergent dispenser.
Push the button on the lid of the detergent dispenser in the direction of the arrow until the ap springs open. (Fig 1) Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent powder or insert the de­tergent tablet. The marking indicates
the lling level. (Fig 2) TIP: You can choose to add a detergent tablet alone or to add detergent powder to both the main wash detergent cham­ber and the pre-wash detergent cham­ber for your selected wash cycle.
All programmes with pre-wash
need an additional detergent dos-
age (please refer to the wash cycle
table) that must be placed in the
pre-wash detergent chamber. This
detergent will take effect during the
pre-wash phase. (Fig 2)
Close the lid rmly so that it clicks
into place.
NOTE:
Insert the 3-in-1 detergent tablet into
3-in-1 basket for the 3-in-1 wash cycle.

Rinse aid helps to ensure water does not cling and leave marks on crockery during the drying phase and helps crockery dry faster after it has been washed. Only pour rinse aid that is for domestic dishwashers into the res­ervoir. This model is designed to use liquid rinse aids only.
Please follow the steps below to pour the rinse aid into the storage reser­voir, and the amount will dispense automatically.
Turn the cap and open as indicated
in Fig 1.
When the cap open marking is
aligned (Fig 2a), you may lift the
cap up (Fig 2b).
Pour the rinse aid until the level
indicator turns completely black in
colour and close the cap. (Fig 3)
Be careful not to overll the reser-
voir. Wipe up any spills. The ap-
proximate volume of the rinse aid
reservoir is 110ml.

NOTE: If the water hardness in your area is soft, you may not need rinse aid as it may cause white lm to develop on your dishes.
Rinse aid indicator light will illuminate when the reservoir is running out of rinse aid and requires relling.
Alternatively, you can judge the amount of rinse aid by checking the rinse aid indicator right next to the reservoir’s cap. When the indica­tor is black, it means it is full. When it is clear, it means it is almost empty.

adjusting rinse aid reservoir
The rinse aid reservoir has six settings. Both the recommended set­ting and the factory setting is “4.” (Fig 2b on page 16) If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free.
adding of salt
If the water in your area is hard, de­posits will form on your dishes and utensils. As such, this appliance con­tains a salt reservoir for you to reduce the hardness of the water.
Please follow the steps below to pour the salt into the salt reservoir and it must be set to correspond to the wa­ter hardness level in your area.
Remove the lower basket and un­screw the reservoir cap. (Fig 1) Fill the reservoir with approximate­ly 500ml of water (rst use only). Place the funnel provided over the salt reservoir. (Fig 2) Pour in approximately 1.2kg of dishwasher salt depending on the brand used. Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening and then screw the cap on again rmly. Run the “rapid” wash programme immediately (without any crockery in the dishwasher) to remove any traces of salt from the compart­ment.

loading the dishwasher
before loading the dishwasher
In general, please observe the following notes before load­ing your cutlery and crockery in the basket.
Remove lipstick stains and any food residues from crockery and dishes. Rinse if necessary. (Fig 1) Dishes and cutlery must not lay inside one another, or cover each other. Load your cutlery and crockery so that water can access all surfaces. (Fig 2) Ensure all items are securely posi­tioned. Hollow items such as cups, glass­es, pans, etc. must be placed up­side down in the basket. Wide based items should be placed at an angle so that water can run off them freely. The spray arms must not be

blocked by items which are too tall or hang through the baskets. If in doubt, test for free movement by manually rotating the spray arms. Ensure that small items cannot fall through the holders in the baskets.•
CAUTION: Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating
grease or paint in the dishwasher. Ash does not dissolve and can distribute in the dishwasher. Wax, sand, lubricating grease and paint can cause damage to the
dishwasher.
Kenwood KDW8ST2A_IB_GB_Final_09019 19 28/08/09 12:31:02 PM
For safety reasons, do not operate the dishwasher without the
upper and lower baskets in place.
upper basket
Please use the upper basket for small and lightweight items such as cups, saucers, glasses, dessert bowls, etc. Shallow pans or casserole dishes can also be placed in the upper basket. (Fig 1)
Long items such as soup ladles, mix­ing spoons and long knives (Fig 2) should be placed lying down across
the front of the upper basket.
adjusting the upper basket
More space can be created for large items on the upper or lower baskets by adjusting the height of the upper basket. Ensure that the rail stop is placed back properly after the height adjustment.

starting a wash cycle
Please follow the steps below to start a wash cycle.
Ensure the unit is connected to the mains power and the water supply is on (water pressure between 0.04MPa and 1.00MPa). Open the door. Pull out the lower and upper baskets, load the dishes and push the baskets back. It is recommended that the lower basket is loaded rst, and then the upper basket. Pour in the detergent or place the detergent tablet in the detergent compartment and close rmly afterwards.. Press the ON/OFF button. Select the wash cycle programme based on the loading and soil re­quirements. Please refer to the “Wash Cycle Table” (page 13). The indicator light of the selected programme will illuminate. Close the dishwasher door. A click sound should be heard when the­door is closed correctly. Do not slam the door. The washing cycle will begin shortly.
NOTE: If you open the dishwasher’s door during the washing cycle and then close it, the dishwasher will continue the current washing pro­gramme after 10 seconds. However, if the door is not closed correctly after 1 minute, the dishwasher will make an audible sound at 1 minute
intervals.
changing a programme
To change the programme if the washing cycle has already started, follow the steps below.
Open the door slightly to check if the unit has dispensed the deter­gent or detergent tablet. This will depend on how long the washing cycle was running for. If the detergent dispenser lid is opened, we suggest you allow the wash cycle to nish. If the detergent dispenser lid is still closed, press and hold down the programme button for 3 seconds to cancel the programme. You can then press the required new programme button and close the dish-
washer door. The unit will start the new washing cycle shortly.

at the end of a programme
At the end of the programme, the dishwasher will sound.
NOTE: The condensation strip helps to prevent the risk of steam
damage to the worktop edging above the dishwasher, it is advis­able to leave the door closed until you are ready to unload the crockery. You can also open the dishwasher door fully until the dishes and crockery are cool enough to unload. Do not leave the door only partially open.
switching off the unit
For energy saving, remember to switch the dishwasher off using the ON/OFF button. The dishwasher will continue to use electricity until it is switched off with the ON/OFF button.
If the dishwasher is not going to be used for a long period of time, e.g. whilst on holiday, disconnect the unit from the mains supply.
unloading the dishwasher
Allowing dishes to cool down before unloading is important as dishes tend to break and chip more easily when they are hot. Therefore, if you open the dishwasher door fully after switching off, it will allow the dishes to cool down much faster.
We suggest:
Unload the lower basket rst, followed by the cutlery basket and then the upper basket.
This will prevent water drops from the upper basket from falling on to the dishes in the lower basket.

cleaning after use
external care
the door and the door seal
Clean the door seals regularly with a soft damp cloth to remove food deposits. When the dishwasher is being loaded, food and drink residues may drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door. These surfaces are out­side the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray
arms. Any deposits should be wiped off before the door is closed.
the control panel
If cleaning is required, the control panel should be wiped with a soft damp cloth ONLY.
ATTENTION: To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and
electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces be­cause they may scratch the nish. Some paper towels may also scratch or leave marks on the surface.
internal care
ltering system
The ltering system in the base of the wash cabinet captures large par­ticles of suds solution. Build up of these particles may cause the lters to block. Check the condition of the lters regularly and clean them if necessary under running water.

Page 27) NOTE: Do not over tighten the lters. Put the lters back in the lter cylinder in sequence securely. Otherwise the residue could get into the system and cause a blockage.
WARNING!
NEVER use the dishwasher without l-
ters in place. Improper replacement of the lter may reduce the performance levels of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
