Cleaning the wash cabinet
The wash cabinet is largely self-clean‐

If, however, there are limescale or

can be removed with a special dish‐
washer cleaner (see "Optional accesso‐

packaging.
If you mainly use low temperature pro‐

of bacteria and unpleasant odours

Plumbing
Drainage
– The appliance drainage system is fit‐
ed with a non-return valve, which
t
prevents dirty water from flowing
back into the dishwasher via the
drain hose.
– The dishwasher is supplied with ap‐
ox. 1.5 m of flexible drain hose with
pr
an internal diameter of 22 mm.
– The drain hose can be extended us‐
a connection piece to attach a
ing
further length of hose. The drainage
length must not be longer than 4 m,
and the delivery head must not ex‐
ceed 1 m.
– If the hose is to be directly fitted to
ainage outlet on site, use the
the dr
hose clip supplied (see installation
plan).
– The hose can be directed to the left
or the right of the appliance.
– The on-site connector for the drain
ho
se can be adapted to different
widths of hose. If the connector pro‐
trudes too far into the drain hose, it
will need to be shortened. Otherwise
the drain hose may become blocked.
Venting the drainage system
If the on-site drain connection is situ‐
at
ed lower than the guide path for the
bottom basket rollers in the open door,
the drainage system must be vented.
Otherwise a siphoning effect during a
programme can cause the appliance to
empty itself of water.
