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.
Close the door
Rotate the programme selector 3 from the 12 o’clock position by one notch to the left.
Switch on main switch 1 and hold down for at least 3 sec. The display
above the symbols and light up. (hardness value has been set to 2 at the factory).
To change the setting: Rotate the programme selector You can select a set value between 0 and 3 according to the hardness of your water.
If the lamps the maximum set hardness value has been reached. If the set hardness value is now increased again, the lamps go out and the set hardness value is set to 0 (no lamp lights up).
Switch off the main switch 1 . The chosen setting has now been stored.

Filling in the Salt
Function of the salt
During the rinse cycle the salt is being washed automatically from the salt compartment into the softening system where it will dissolve the lime. The lime-containing solution drains from the dishwasher. Afterwards the softening system is ready to be loaded again. This regeneration cycle will only work if the salt is dissolved in water.
Open the screw-type cap of the compartment
Before switching on the appliance for the first time, pour approx. 1 litre of water into the salt dispenser.
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. Therefore, to prevent corrosion, always refill with salt immediately before switching on the dishwasher. This way the overflowing salt solution is diluted and flushed immediately. Use the enclosed salt filling aid ( in some models).
Then clean the filling area of salt residues and screw the compartment lid back on without tilting the lid.
27 .
* on applicable models
The LOW SALT indicator panel will light up initially but will extinguish again after a short period when the salt solution has become sufficiently concentrated.
If the set hardness value is ”0”, do not add salt because no salt is used during operation; the salt refill indicator is switched off.
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 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.

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.

Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher
Loading the dishwasher
Remove fairly large food remnants, e.g. pieces of bone and fruit stones, from the utensil. 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
Upper basket
20
Pots and pans
Lower basket
26
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.

en
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. 4 baking sheets and 2 grilles).
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
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.
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:
D
selecting a higher temperature programme, or
D
increasing the amount of detergent, or
D
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.
If the detergent dispenser 31 is still closed, press the lock detergent dispenser.
32 to open the
Adding detergent
Fill the dispenser 31 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.
14
Page 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:
the crockery is very wet once the programme has finished.
limescale deposits are formed.
Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty.

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 data
The programme data (duration, energy and water consumption) can be found in the summary of instructions and refers to standard conditions. Greater deviations may be caused by:
different quantities of utensils inlet temperature of the water water pressure ambient temperature mains voltage tolerances and appliance-specific tolerances
(e.g. temperature, water flow rate, etc.)
The water consumption values refer to water hardness value 2.
Switching on the appliance
Close the door. Turn on the tap fully. Rotate programme selector 3 to the required programme. Switch on the main switch 1 .
The programme sequence display 6 lights up, the programme sequence starts automatically.
End of programme
The programme ends when the Programme progress indicator
6 has gone out and
the End-of-programme indicator
7 illuminates. When the programme
ends, the ”Top basket washing” function is de-activated if required (only some models).
Several minutes after the programme has ended:
Open the appliance door. Wait until the dishes have cooled down
and then remove.
When the programme has ended, you can either switch off the appliance or restart it with the same or another programme.
Switching off the appliance
Several minutes after the end of the programme:
Switch off the main switch 1 . ”End of programme” display goes out. Turn off the tap (does not apply to Aqua Stop). It is not necessary to adjust the programme selector.
Remove the utensils when they have cooled down.

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.
Note
If the power supply is disconnected while the appliance is operating, e.g. by switching off the appliance or due to a power failure, all settings remain stored. Operation continues automatically as soon as the power supply is restored.
Additional functions *
* on some models additional functions
4 can be set with the buttons.
Pre-Soak *
The Pre-Soak programme option serves to perform a pre-soak cycle before the main programme. This cycle enables cookware, e.g. pans, bowls, etc. to be pre-soaked and pre-rinsed in the lower rack. If you wish to pre-soak the dishes, this programme option must be selected by pressing the “Pre-Soak” button before the programme starts. The recommended detergent amount is approx. 5 g poured onto the inside of the door.
Time reduction/ time saving *
Pressing the “Time reduction/time saving” button provides a short wash cycle by curtailing the drying phase and the washing time. The washing and drying performance will be reduced with the Time reduction/time saving programme option.
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.
Extra dry*
If you press the “Extra dry” button, you will receive a higher temperature in all programmes in the final rinse and therefore an improved drying result. (please note that higher temperatures might have an effect on delicate items).

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 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.
