Before you can use your appliance for the
first time, you must select the language.
When the appliance has been switched
on, the following display is output:
DE EN FR NL IT EL
Deutsch Ok
“Deutsch” is displayed and the
language code DE flashes. If you would
like to select another language, depress
repeatedly or until the code of
the desired language flashes.
Acknowledge the selected language
with “ok” .
All subsequent clear text displays will now
be displayed in the selected language.

Return to language selection:
1. Switch off the appliance.
2. Switch on the appliance, holding
down the main switch until the display
is lit.
3. Select the language and acknowledge.
Providing operating materials
To operate the dishwasher you will require
salt (only for appropriate water
hardness, see chapter “Adjusting
the softening system”),
rinse aid,
detergent.
Only use products which are suitable
for the dishwasher.
Before using the appliance for the first time
and after selecting the language, fill with
salt (if required) and rinse aid and adjust
the softening system. Proceed as
described in the chapters “Filling with salt”,
“Filling with rinse aid” and “Adjusting the
softening system”.

Page 8
en
Filling with salt
Note
If the degree of hardness of your
tap water corresponds with value
on the appliance (see chapter
“Adjusting the softening
system”), it is not necessary to fill
the dispenser with salt, as salt is
not used during operation of the
dishwasher. Salt is required for
values to .
During the washing process the salt is
automatically washed into the softener
and dissolves the calcification.
The calcareous solution is pumped out of
the dishwasher. The softening system is
then reset to standby .
This regeneration sequence does not
function until the salt has dissolved in the
water.
When the appliance is switched on,
low salt is indicated by “Refill salt”. (This
display is no longer indicated as soon as
you have set the value for the softening
system to ).
Open the screw cap on the dispenser
25 .
Before switching on the appliance for
the first time, pour approx. 1 litre of
water into the salt dispenser.
Use the enclosed salt filler.
Use the enclosed salt filler.
Refill with salt (do not use edible salt)
until the salt dispenser is full (max. 1.5 kg).
When the salt dispenser is being refilled,
water is displaced and drains away .
Therefore always refill the salt dispenser
immediately before switching on the
dishwasher (to prevent corrosion). As a
result, the overflowing salt solution will be
immediately diluted and rinsed out. Then
remove salt residue from the filler area and
screw on the dispenser cover, ensuring
that it is not fitted askew.
As soon as the salt concentration is
adequately high, the “Refill salt” display
goes out.
If you do not want to wait for the display
to go out before washing, acknowledge
that salt has been added by pressing the
“Acknowledge” button .
If you do not want to add any salt at the
moment, you can skip the “Refill salt”
display by pressing the “Acknowledge”
button
.
Do not pour detergent into the
container for special salt. This
would destroy the water
softener.

en
Setting up the water
softener
In order to provide satisfactory rinsing
results, the dishwasher requires soft water,
i.e., containing little or no lime, otherwise
water stains will be left behind on the
dishes and interior containers.
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.
The limescale absorption capacity of the
water softening system is limited. When
the water softening system is exhausted, it
must be regenerated, i.e. refreshed with
salt.
The optical limescale sensor determines
the degree of hardness and controls the
water softening system when “Hardness
auto” is selected.
The “Hardness auto” factory setting does
not require any adjustments when the
appliance is switched on for the first time
or if the water hardness varies.
If you would nevertheless like to set
the water softening system manually ,
proceed as follows:
Find out the degree of hardness of your
tap water. Your water supply company
or customer service will assist you.
Switch on the appliance with the main
switch 1 . The main menu is
displayed (if switching on the appliance
for the first time, only when a language
has been selected and dispensers
have been filled with salt (if required)
and rinse aid).

hardness of your tap water in the
following table. “Hardness auto”
has been preset at the factory.
Press the button. The set value has
been saved and you are returned to the
Start menu.
If the set value is “0”, the water softening
system is switched off. A low salt level will
be displayed.

Filling with rinse aid
Rinse aid is used in washing mode to
ensure that glasses are sparkling and
utensils are stain-free.
When the appliance is switched on, low
rinse aid level is indicated by ”Refill rinse
aid”. You can add rinse aid either when the
appliance door is completely open or – for
a more comfortable posture – when the
door is half open.
Open the rinse aid dispenser 30 by
pressing the button on the dispenser
cover and open the cover. When the
door is half open, also pull out the
hinged filling aid until it locks into
position.
rinse–aid control
Fill when door is fully open.
Add rinse aid slowly and do not overfill.
Adequate rinse aid has been added
when the door is completely open and
the level indicator on the dispenser is
dark and the “Refill rinse aid” display is
no longer lit.
Close the cover on the dispenser until
it ”clicks” into position. If required, the
filling aid is automatically re-inserted.
If you would like to add rinse aid at a later
time, you can skip the “Refill rinse aid”
display by pressing the “Acknowledge”
button

Unsuitable dishes
You should not clean the
following items in your
dishwasher:
Cutlery and dishes made of wood. They
will leach out and become unsightly; the
utilised adhesives are also not suitable
for the dishwasher temperatures.
Delicate décor glasses, craft dishes and
vases, special antique or irreplaceable
dishes. These décor items are not
dishwasher-safe.
Plastic parts, copper and tin dishes
sensitive to hot water are not suitable
either . Overglazed patterns, aluminium
and silver parts tend to become
discoloured and fade during the rinsing
cycle. Even some types of glass (e.g.
crystal glass objects) may become cloudy
after many rinse cycles. Completely
absorbent materials, such as sponges and
cloths must not be cleaned in the
dishwasher either.
Recommendation:
In future buy only dishes which are
identified as dishwasher-safe.
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.
Note
Dishes which are soiled with
ash, wax, lubricating grease or
ink must not be cleaned in the
dishwasher.

Arranging crockery , glasses,
etc. in the dishwasher
Loading the dishwasher
Scrape off any large amounts of left-over
food. 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 28
Cutlery
Cutlery should always be inserted in
random order with the handles pointing
downwards (take care with knife blades!).
This enables the jet of water to reach the
individual items more easily .
To prevent the risk of injury, place long and
pointed implements and knives on the
shelf (some models) or knife shelf
(available as an accessory).

Pull out the top basket.
To raise the basket, take hold of the
basket on the upper edge and pull
upwards.
Before you re-insert the basket, ensure
that it is at the same height on both
sides. Otherwise, the appliance door
cannot be closed and the upper spray
arm will not connect to the water circuit.
To lower the basket, press in
succession the two levers on the left

Detergents
Notes on detergents
Y ou may 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 the dishes and glasses,
etc.
These can be prevented by pouring an
increased amount of detergent into the
dispenser.
Chlorine-free detergents have a reduced
bleaching effect. This may mean that tea
stains are not completely removed or
plastic items become discoloured.
This can be resolved by:
– using the “Auto Super Wash”
programme
– increasing the amount of detergent
– using a detergent that contains chloride
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.
Check the label on the 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 respective
detergent manufacturer.
Any problems which arise as a direct
result of the use of these products are not
covered by our warranty .
