Disposal of your old appliance

Old electrical and electronic appliances often still contain valuable ma

terials. However, they also contain harmful substances that were essential for the proper functioning and safe use of the equipment. Handling these materials improperly or disposing of them in your household waste can be harmful to your health and the environment. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with regular household waste.

Instead, use your local community waste collection and recycling cen

ter to dispose of your old electric and electronic appliances. If

necessary, ask your dealer for more information. Ensure the appliance presents no danger to children while being stor‐

ed for disposal.

The emergency release mechanism is located on the right beside the door lock between the door and the lid of the appliance (or the coun‐ t

The emergency release is operated using the tool supplied in the ac‐ cessor

Reactivation

In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher water needs

to be softened. The water is softened automatically in the wa‐ ter softener. Dishwasher salt is required for reactivation and the degree of water hardness must be set on the dishwasher to ensure problem-free functioning of the water softener (see "Additional settings, Water hardness").

If the hardness of your water constantly lies under 4 gpg (4 °dH), no salt

must be filled in the water softener.

 Do

not fill the salt container with dishwasher detergent (even

liquid detergent). Dishwasher detergent will damage the water softener.

Use only special, coarse-grained reactivation salt or other pure kitchen salt.

Other types of salt may contain insoluble components which can damag

e the water softener.
