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.
Water hardness table
Press and hold the B programme button, and set the main switch
1
to ON, before releasing the programme button again. The indicator lamp for the B button
flashes, as does the figure in the numerical display. The latter represents the value that was pre-set in the factory.
To change the setting: Press the
B programme button 9.
Every time the button is pressed, the figure increases by one. After reaching
, the display starts at again.
Set the main switch 1 to OFF. The new setting is stored in the appliance’s memory.
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.
en
8
Filling the salt dispenser
Salt must always be filled before the appliance is switched on, so that excess salt solution is immediately flushed away to prevent corrosion.
Open the screw-type cap of the compartment
27 .
Before using the appliance for the first time, pour about 1 litre of water in the salt container.
Then refill with salt (not cooking salt) until the salt container is full (max. 1.5 kg). When you refill the salt, water is being displaced and drains off.
The LOW SALT indicator 6 on the front panel will light up initially but will extinguish again after a short period when the salt solution has become sufficiently concentrated.
When the control is set to , it is not necessary to fill up with salt as none will
be consumed while the dishwasher is operating. The LOW SALT indicator is switched off. If the control is set between
and , then salt must be added to the
dispenser.
Warning
Do not pour detergent into the container for special salt. This would destroy the water softener.
Salt refill indicator
As soon as the salt refill indicator
6
is lit on the control panel, refill with salt immediately before the next rinse cycle.
Depending on the washing frequency and the hardness setting, the regeneration salt may not have to be topped up for several months.
en
9
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
30 . 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
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
Upper basket

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.
Long items, serving cutlery, salad servers or knives should be placed on the shelf so that they do not obstruct the rotation of the spray arms. The shelf can be folded back when not required for use.
Small accessories holder*
* some models Light-weight plastic accessories, e.g. cups,
lids, etc. can be held securely in the small accessories holder.
en
12
Adjusting position of basket *
* not on all models If required, the height of the top basket can
be adjusted in order to create more space for large utensils either in the top or bottom basket.
Pull out the top basket. Remove the top basket and re-attach it
to the upper or lower rollers.
Detergent
You can use commercially available liquid or powder proprietary detergents for dishwashers or TABS (do not use handwash!).
If phosphate-free detergents are used with hard tap water, white deposits may be deposited more easily on utensils and the container walls. This can be remedied by adding more detergent.
See detergent packaging to determine whether a detergent is suitable for silver parts.
If you have any other questions, we recommend that you contact the helplines of the detergent manufacturers.
Detergent dispenser with dosing aid
The graduated detergent dispenser helps you pour in the correct amount.
Lower line: 15 ml Middle line: 25 ml
Full to the brim: 40 ml If the detergent dispenser 31 is still
closed, press the lock
32 to open the
detergent dispenser.
Adding detergent
Fill the dispenser 31 with detergent. Dosage: see manufacturer’s instructions on the detergent packaging.
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.
The Intensive programme (on some models) requires one tab only. When using washing powder, you can apply some of this cleaning agent to the inside of the appliance’s door.
en
13
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.
auto 3in1
The use of so-called combined detergent products may make the use of rinse aid and/or salt unnecessary.
There are currently several types of combined detergent products available.
3in1: They contain detergent, rinse aid and salt function.
2in1: They contain detergent and rinse aid or salt function.
>>> Always check the type of detergent
or combined product which you are using!
Always follow the operating instructions or the information on the packaging.
The rinse programme is automatically adjusted in order to obtain the best possible rinsing and drying result.
Observe the following important information if using combined cleaning products:
Regeneration salt is not required up to a water hardness of 21_ dH (37_ fH, 26_ Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l) only. No other settings on the appliance are required.
Salt is still required if the water hardness is above 21_ dH (37_ fH, 26_Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l). Fill the salt dispenser with salt 27 and select setting 6 on the water softening system.
If in doubt, please contact the detergent manufacturer, especially if:
the utensils are very wet at the end of the programme.
limescale forms.
en
14
Note
Optimum rinsing and drying results can be obtained by using standard detergents in conjunction with separate application of salt and rinse aid.
Observance of the operating instructions or information on the packaging of the combined detergents determines their effectiveness.
Note
Even if the rinse aid and/or salt refill indicator is lit, the rinse programme runs correctly when 3in1 products are used.
If the rinse aid refill indicator

Programme selection
The most appropriate programme can be identified by comparing the type of crockery, cutlery, etc., as well as the amount and condition of food remains,
with the details contained in the programme overview.
You will find the appropriate programme information in the introduction.
en
16
Washing dishes
Reduce costs!
If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into the dishwasher, selecting a programme that operates at the next lowest temperature will usually suffice.
Programme specifications
The programme specifications can be found in the summary of instructions. Programme specifications refer to normal conditions. Greater deviations may occur due to:
varying amounts of dishes water supply temperature water pipe pressure ambient temperature mains voltage tolerances and the tolerances specific
to the appliance (e.g. temperature, amount of water, etc.)
The water consumption values refer to a set water hardness value of 4.
Switching the dishwasher ON
Turn on the tap. Set main switch 1 to ON.
Indicators light up according to the last programme that was selected. This same programme will run again if no other programme button
9
is
pressed. The numerical display 3 shows the
expected duration of the programme. The programme starts automatically.
Remaining running time display
When the appliance has started, the expected programme running time is displayed. The programmed running time is affected by the water temperature, the number of dishes, as well as the degree of soiling. If these conditions are changed, the running time (depending on the selected programme) can vary greatly. As the effect is not detected until a programme is running, the time may be longer or shorter than expected.
Time delay * * on applicable models
You can delay the start of the programme in 1-hour steps up to 19 hours.
Switch on the appliance. Press the timer programming button
4
until the digital display 3 jumps
to

Keep pressing the timer programming button until the required time is displayed.
To delete the timer programming, keep pressing the button until is displayed.
You can change your programme selection at any time until the programme starts.
End of programme
The programme has ended when a figure
appears in the numerical display 3.
Cancel programme (Reset)
Only when the master switch is ON. Press the
A and C buttons simultaneously, and hold them pressed for approx. 3 seconds. The numerical display shows
.
The programme continues for approx. 1 min.
When it has ended, set the main switch
1
to OFF.
To restart the dishwasher, set main switch
1
to ON again and select desired
programme.
en
17
Interrupting the programme
Set main switch 1 to OFF. Indicator lights extinguish. The
programme is retained in the dishwasher memory.
If the hot water was switched ON or the appliance has already heated up and then the appliance door opened, leave the door ajar for several minutes and then close. Otherwise, the appliance door may fly open due to expansion.
In order to continue with the stored programme, set the main switch to ON again.
Changing the programme
It is possible to change the programme within 2 minutes after you have switched the dishwasher on.
Should it be necessary to change the programme after this period, the programme cycle that has already been begun (e.g. washing) will be completed first of all.
The new remaining time displayed is the sum of the remaining time from the preceding programme cycle and the remaining time attributable to the new programme that has been selected.
Intensive drying
If the “Intensive drying” function is activated, the temperature of the final rinse is increased in all programmes and you will therefore receive an improved drying result. (Note the higher temperature may not be suitable for fragile utensils.)
Hold down the programme button A and switch on the main switch. Release both buttons. The digital display
3
flashes (on)
or (off). To change the setting, press the
programme button A . Switch off the main switch 1;
the setting is stored.
Additional functions *
* on some models additional functions
5
can be set with the buttons.
Saving time (VarioSpeed) *
The >>Save time<< function can reduce the running time by approx. 20% to 50% depending on the selected rinse programme. The particular change in the running time is indicated on the time remaining display. To obtain optimum cleaning and drying results at a reduced running time, water and energy consumption are increased.
Half load*
If you have only a few items to wash (e.g. glasses, cups, plates), you can switch to “Half load”. The “half load” additional function saves water, energy and time. It is recommended to put a little less detergent in the detergent dispenser than for a full load.
en

Maintenance and care
A regular inspection and maintenance of your machine will help to prevent faults. This saves time and prevents problems.
Overall condition of the machine
Check washing chamber for grease and limescale deposits.
If you find such deposits:
Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent, start the appliance without utensils in the programme which has the highest wash temperature.
Clean the appliance with detergents/ appliance cleaners which are particularly suitable for use with dishwashers.
Regularly wipe the door seal with a damp cloth.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean your dishwasher. The manufacturer is not liable for any consequential damage.
Regularly wipe the front of the appliance and panel with a damp cloth; water and a little washing-up liquid will suffice. Do not use sponges with a rough surface or abrasive detergents, as these could scratch the surfaces.
Attention!
Never use other chlorinated household detergents! Health hazard!
Salt and rinse aid

Notes on comparison tests
You will find details of the conditions for 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. Level the appliance with the aid of the height-adjustable feet. Ensure that the appliance is situated securely on the floor. If the appliance is installed under a worktop, tension the appliance only lightly against the worktop with the height-adjustable feet.
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
33 .
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.
Removing the appliance
It is essential, when removing the appliance, to observe the following sequence: First, disconnect the appliance from the power supply. Pull out the mains plug. Turn off the water supply. Disconnect the waste water and fresh water connections. Loosen the fastening screws under the worktop. If fitted, remove the base panel. Pull out the appliance, carefully pulling the hose behind.
Transporting the dishwasher
Drain water from the dishwasher. Secure all loose parts. The appliance should only be transported in an upright position.
If the appliance is not kept upright during transport, any water left inside may seep into the control module and cause subsequent errors with programme functions.
The appliance must be drained in the following sequence:
Turn on the tap. Close the door. Set main switch to ON. Select the B programme. The programme duration in minutes is
shown in the numerical display. Wait for approximately 4 minutes. Terminate the programme by pressing
A and C simultaneously. The time display changes to .
Wait a further minute and then switch the appliance off.
Turn off the tap.
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.
