9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual. Read and understand all instructions before using the dishwasher.
This dishwasher is intended for use up to a maximum altitude of 13,000 ft (4,000 meters) above sea level.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or serious injury, observe the following:
WARNING
RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH
Misuse of the dishwasher can result in serious injury or death. Do not use the dishwasher in any way not covered in this manual or for any purpose other than those explained in the following pages.
WARNING
RISK OF INJURY
Severe injury and/or product damage could result from the use of unauthorized service technicians or nonoriginal replacement parts. All repairs must be performed by an authorized service technician using only original equipment factory replacement parts.
Never use harsh chemicals to clean your dishwasher. Some bleach-based products can damage your dishwasher and may present health hazards!
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded to a metal, permanent wiring system or an equipment grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher. See the Installation Instructions included with this dishwasher for more information on electrical requirements.
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.
WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE
Electrical shock or fire could result if the electrical supply for the dishwasher covered in this manual is incorrectly installed or if the dishwasher has been improperly grounded. Do not use the dishwasher covered in this manual unless you are certain the electrical supply has been correctly installed and the dishwasher has been properly grounded.
WARNING
HEALTH HAZARD
Safe Operation
Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dishware and kitchenware rated as dishwasher safe.
Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
CAUTION
When loading items to be washed:
Locate sharp items so they are not likely to damage the door seal.
Load knives and other sharp utensils with their HANDLES UP to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in place.
Do not tamper with or override controls and interlocks.
Do not abuse, sit or stand on the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
RISK OF INJURY
To avoid risk of injury, always use caution when opening the door during or following a wash cycle as hot water or steam may escape. Do not fully open the door until water noises have stopped and steam has subsided.
To reduce risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.
When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the responsibility of the parents/legal guardians to ensure the children are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.
NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
Proper Care and Maintenance
WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSION
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive. Before using a dishwasher that is connected to a hot water system that has been unused for two weeks or longer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is explosive, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher for service or discarding.
To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.
Note: To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow water to remain in your dishwasher systems through extended periods of freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures can damage the water fill valve and potentially other components of your dishwasher.
NOTICE: It is highly recommended for the end user to become familiar with the procedure to shut off the incoming water supply and the procedure to shut off the incoming power supply. See the Installation Instructions or contact your installer for more information.
State of California Proposition 65 Warning:
WARNING
This product can expose you to chemicals including vinyl chloride, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to
www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Causes of Damage
NOTICES
Never use steam cleaning products to clean your dishwasher. The manufacturer will not be liable for the possible damages or consequences.
To avoid possible dishwasher damage, do not use harsh chemicals, bleach-based wipes, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads (metal or plastic), or abrasive cloths/paper towels to clean your dishwashers exterior door panel. Your dishwasher's exterior door panel can be damaged by doing so.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not load the dishwasher with paper products, plastic bags, packing materials or anything other than normal, dishwasher safe dishware and kitchenware.
Protect your dishwasher from the elements. Protect against freezing to avoid possible damage to the fill valve. Damage caused by freezing is not covered by the warranty.

Water softening system / special salt *
To ensure good rinsing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. water which is low in lime, otherwise limescale will be deposited on the utensils and interior container. Tap water above 7° dH (1.2 mmol/l) must be softened. The water is softened with special salt (regeneration salt) in the water softening system
of the dishwasher. The setting and therefore the required amount of salt depends on the degree of hardness of your tap water (see following water hardness table).
* optional feature which may or may not be included with your dishwasher.

Proceed as described under “Setting water softening system” and set the value to •:‹‹. The water softening system and salt refill indicator are now switched off.
14
Rinse Aid
As soon as the low rinse aid indicator 8 lights up on the control panel, rinse aid should be topped off.
The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses. Use only rinse aid which the manufacturer designates as safe to use in domestic dishwashers. Combined detergents with rinse aid component may be used with soft to moderately hard water only (0-2 bands on test strip or up to an °E value of 20). For moderately hard to hard water (3 to 4 bands on test strip or °E value of 21 or higher), rinse aid must be used.

3.Close the lid. Lid must be fully closed until it clicks in order to seal.
4.Wipe up any excess rinse aid that may have puddled when the dispenser reservoir is full.
This prevents excessive frothing during the next wash cycle. The indicator light will go out a few moments after the dishwasher door is shut.
Tip: For easier pouring, remove lid from the rinse aid bottle.
NOTICE: Do not fill the rinse aid dispenser 9* with detergent. Doing so will damage the dishwasher.

Do not change the amount of rinse aid unless there are streaks or water stains on the utensils. Set a lower level to avoid streaks. Set a higher level to avoid water stains.
Set the amount of rinse aid as follows:
1.Open the door.
2.Press on ON/OFF button (.
3.Press the Setup button for 3 seconds until •:‹‹ is shown on the display window H.
4.Keep pressing the Setup button until the rinse aid setting, §:‹† is displayed.
5.Change the setting with the setting buttons + - P.
6.Press and hold the Setup button for 3 seconds. The chosen setting has now been stored.

Detergent
Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing detergent or detergent tabs.
NOTICE: To avoid damage to dishwasher or dishware:
Do not use hand dishwashing products in your dishwasher.
Do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. Using too much detergent with soft water may cause etching in glassware and fine china.
To best protect glassware, use a wash cycle with low temperatures or a specific glass-care cycle (depending on the model) and use a detergent that includes etch protection.
This dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to
1 tablespoon (15 ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml).
3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent will completely fill the detergent dispenser.
Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15 ml of detergent. Increase the amount if necessary to the least amount required to get your kitchenware clean.
Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the amount of detergent recommended in the following table.

all
Note: : In order to obtain optimal performance with minimum energy consumption, it is recommended to disable all available options and settings, except Auto Power Offset to “after one minute.”
Hand Wash |
Gentle cleaning of your most precious dishes at |
all except Sanitize |
|
lower temperatures. |
|
Quick |
Cleans lightly soiled dishes and reduces overall |
Delay, Extra Dry |
|
wash time to 30 minutes. |
|
Rinse |
Use this cycle if you need to pre-rinse dishes to |
Delay |
|
avoid odors. Place unrinsed dishes inside the |
|
|
dishwasher and select the Rinse cycle. Uses less |
|
|
water than hand rinsing and very low energy. |
|
*The cycle is sanitized when Sanitize option is used. **The cycle is a sanitizing cycle.
Note: The Energy Guide label was based on the Normal soil sensing cycle as follows: The unit was tested without any rinse aid (liquid) in the rinse aid dispenser 9*. A single dose of detergent was inserted into the detergent dispenser 92, with no detergent being used in the prewash. The unit was not subjected to truncated testing per the definitions in the test procedure. We recommend that dish loads such as the one in the energy certification test have the rack position set in the highest position.

Dishwasher Cycle Options
PowerBoost ®
Perfect for a mixed load. You can wash very soiled pots and pans in the lower rack together with normally soiled utensils in the upper rack. The spray pressure in the lower rack is intensified, the rinsing temperature is increased slightly.
Half Load
Can reduce water consumption when washing small, lightly soiled loads that fill approximately half or less of the dishwasher’s capacity.
Sanitize
Increases the temperatures and retains them for an extra long time to obtain a defined disinfecting performance. Continuous use of this function increases the hygiene status. This additional option is ideal for cleaning items such as chopping boards and baby bottles.
“Sanitized” will appear in the display window when sanitation requirements are met. Using the Sanitize option may also improve drying. There is a slight increase in energy consumption.
Extra Dry
An increased temperature during the final rinse and an extended drying phase ensure that plastic parts dry better. There is a slight increase in the energy consumption.
