Before doing your first wash
Read through the directions for use
Read through the directions for use before
starting to use your machine, especially the
Safety, Child Safety and Basic Course
sections.
Take care with certain materials
Read the section ‘Fragile Dishes’ before
washing china with unglazed decoration or
other household goods made of plastic,
wood or crystal requiring careful treatment.
Check the door
Check that the door of the dishwasher fits
properly: open the door a little and let it go.
Does it stay exactly where you released it?
If not, you should check the installation
instructions or consult the installer.
Check the water hardness level
Phone your local Water Board to check the
water hardness in your area. This is important
when dispensing dishwasher detergent and
rinse aid.
If you have a machine with a water
softener
Once you know the water hardness, you
can set the water softener, see Settings.
Before you start dishwashing, you must
also fill with salt, see Salt.

Safety
General
Winter storage/Transport
• Read and keep the directions for use!
• Installation of water, drainage and electricity must be carried out by a qualified
professional.
• Do not use the dishwasher for any purposes other than those stated in these
directions for use.
• Do not load the dishwasher door or the
dishwasher baskets with anything other
than dishes.
• Only use dishwasher detergent!
• Place knives and other sharp objects so
that they cannot cause injury to people or
damage the dishwasher.
Never put dishes containing solvent residue
in the machine due to risk of explosion.
Neither may dishes containing ashes, wax
or lubricating grease be washed in the
dishwasher.
Cleaning
Only use a slightly damp cloth for cleaning
around the edge of the door. Do not use a
spray bottle! Water can penetrate into the
lock and come into contact with the electrical components.
Packaging materials
Sort at source in accordance with the recommendations of your local authority.
Scrapping
When the time comes for the machine to be
scrapped, it should immediately be rendered unusable. Remove the plug and cut
off the lead as short as possible.
Contact your refuse collection department
or your local authority for information on the
correct way to dispose of the machine!
The machine is manufactured and labelled
for recycling.
Winter storage/Transport
Store the machine away from frost.
Avoid long journeys in extreme cold. Transport the machine in an upright position or
lying on its back.
Overfill protection
The overfill protector starts pumping out
water and closes off the water intake if the
machine’s water level exceeds the normal
level. If the overfill protector starts up, shut
off the water supply and phone for service.
See ‘Troubleshooting’ on pages 26-28.

Child Safety!
Child-safe button lock
To prevent children starting the machine,
you can activate a button lock.
Proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the dishwasher with the main
switch.
2. Press and hold the Temperature button,
and at the same time switch on the main
switch.
3.Press the Drying button until “Child lock”
appears in the display.
4. Select: On with the Temperatur button.
5. Continue with the Drying button until you
get back to the main menu or press the
Start/stop button.
6. A key symbol appears in the display if
you have activated the child lock.
To deactivate the button lock temporarily
when you want to start the machine, press
the Temperature and Drying buttons
simultaneously. The button lock will then
automatically switch on again after 3 minutes.
To deactivate the button lock altogether, use
the same procedure as for activation, but
select Off instead.
Advice!
You can read more about this in the Settings
chapter.
Child-safe dishwashing
• Use the knife basket, or knife holder, for
all long/sharp items.
• Always close the door and start the program immediately once dishwasher detergent has been added.
• Keep children away from the dishwasher
when it is open. There might be remains of
dishwasher detergent present!
• Do not allow children to use or play with
the dishwasher. Always take particular care
when the door is open.
Protect your children!
- Dishwasher detergent is
corrosive!
Store dishwasher detergent and rinse aid
out of the reach of children! Should dishwasher detergent be swallowed, immediately drink one or two glasses of milk or
water. Do not attempt to induce vomiting.
Contact a doctor! Should dishwasher detergent come into contact with the eyes, rinse
(for at least 15 minutes) with copious
amounts of water.

Basic Course
Below are step by step instructions to help you
achieve the best possible dishwashing results.
Load the baskets correctly!
Your dishwasher is equipped with Super
Cleaning System™. It is therefore not necessary to rinse the dishes before washing.
Simply remove large food particles and debris. Convenient and environmentally friendly!
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates and
dishes in the upper basket, wine glasses
should be placed on the shelf with the wavy
edge, and knives in the knife stand if present.
NB!
Ensure that all soiled surfaces face inwards
or downwards!
The cutlery basket has a folding flap in the
middle for small items or narrow shafts,
such as electric whisks.
Place long cutlery and carving knives in the
special knife box (if available) or in the
upper basket.
Check that the spray arms are able to move
freely.
See the section entitled Fragile Items if you
want to wash objects that may be fragile.
Place dinner plates, side plates, serving
dishes, saucepans and cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket. The removable plate insert, which comes with certain
models, can be easily removed to provide
room for large plates, saucepans and pots,
or placed in three alternative positions.
Stand the cutlery with handles downward
and as spread out as possible. Ensure that
spoons are not resting inside each other.
Do not put cutlery made of different materials, e.g. silver and stainless steel, in the
same compartment (risk of stains).
Dispensing dishwasher
detergent
Detergent should be dispensed in accordance
with the water’s hardness level.
Follow the dosage instructions on the detergent package. If your machine is fitted with a
water softener, dispense as for soft water.
Pour the dishwasher detergent into the dishwasher detergent compartment. There is one
compartment for pre-wash and one for main
wash, see Dispenser. Phone the dishwasher
detergent manufacturer if you have any questions regarding the detergent.
CAUTION!
Protect your children!
- Dishwasher detergent is corrosive!
11
NB!
Only use dishwasher detergent
Detergent for washing by hand cannot be
used as the build-up of foam impedes the
machine’s performance.
Lower basket wash
When you only want to wash plates and
cutlery in the lower basket you can use the
lower basket wash.
Press the main switch
and select programme
Select a programme by pressing the programme selector one or more times until the
required programme is displayed.
Auto wash
The dishwasher detects how soiled the
dishes are and adjusts water consumption
and temperature accordingly.
Heavy wash
The Heavy Wash programme should be
used for heavily soiled dishes, e.g. saucepans, pots and gratin dishes. If there is still
space in the machine after loading such
items, you can add plates etc.
Normal wash
Used for washing normally soiled dishes
such as plates, serving dishes, cups and
glasses, etc.
Delicate wash
If the dishes are not heavily soiled, you can
select Light wash. This program is intended
for glass and china which has just been
used and therefore does not need such a
powerful program.
Fragile dishes
can be washed using the Light wash
program. Deselect the heat dry if you want
to be particularly careful. See also the chapter on Fragile dishes.
Quick wash
Select Quick Wash if the dishes are very
lightly soiled. This program is used for very
lightly soiled glass and china, e.g. coffee
cups.
Rinse & Hold
For rinsing the dishes while waiting for the
machine to be filled.
For washing normally soiled mixed loads
use the Normal wash program with 65°C
and normal drying.
To save more water and energy use 55°C
and economy drying.
Mixed wash
This dishwashing programme is used for
lightly soiled dishes in the upper basket and
heavily soiled dishes in the lower basket.
Upper basket wash
If you only have cups and glasses in the
upper basket which require washing, you
can use this programme.
12
Rinse & Dry
The Rinse & Dry program comprises one
rinse with heat and drying. It is a suitable
program if you are planning to make jam
and want to rinse and warm previously
washed glass jars.
If you wish to use additional options,
continue to point 4. Otherwise you can
now start the machine, see point 5.
