Dear customer!
Before you operate your dishwasher, please read through these operating
instructions carefully. They contain important information for your safety as well
as operation and maintenance of your machine.
For this small trouble, your dishwasher will reward you with faultless performance.
Should your dishwasher ever have a fault, please look it up in the section on “If
you think your dishwasher is not working properly”. In many cases, you can rectify
minor faults yourself and thus save yourself unnecessary service costs.
Keep the operating instructions in a safe place for future reference, and give them
to any future owners of your dishwasher.
Printed on paper manufactured with environmentally sound processes.

Your dishwasher in day-to-day use
Oj The water protection system ensures reliable protection against water damage,
though this implies the following conditions being fulfilled:
— Themains connection must be retained even when your dishwasher is switched
off.
— Your dishwasher must be properly installed.
— Always turn off the water tap if your dishwasher is left unattended for any length
of time.
Cj Never operate your dishwasher if the electrical supply lead, supply or drain
hose, control panel, worktop, or plinth are damaged.
Cj In case of a fault, first turn off the water tap. Then switch off your machine and
pull the plug out of the plug socket. If there is a fixed connection, switch off or
unscrew the fuse(s).
Cj Never pull the plug out of the plug socket by the supply lead, but by the plug
itself.
Gj Dishwasher repairs should only be performed by trained personnel. Improper
repairs may seriously endanger the user. If your dishwasher needs to be
repaired, you should contact our service centre or your retailer.
Ci If the connection lead of your dishwasher is damaged, it must be replaced by
the special lead through your AEG-authorised service centre.
Cj Never place any solvents in your dishwasher, or you may cause an explosion!
Cj Do not rest or sit on the open door, or you machine could tilt.
Oj Before using special dishwasher salt, detergent, and rinse aid, make sure that
the manufacturer of these products expressly specifies their use in domestic
dishwashers.
0 Always turn off the water tap when your dishwasher is left unattended for any
ength of time, e.g. when you are away on holiday.
The dishwasher should only be transported upright. Any tilting during trans-
port may lead to salt water flowing into the dishwasher, which could result in
rusting.

Disposal
Disposing of the packaging
Our
dishwashers
require
effective
protective
packaging
in
transit,
though
we
always confine ourselves here to what is absolutely necessary.
Warning!
Packaging
parts
(e.g.
foils,
styrene
foam)
may
be
dangerous
—
for
children,
who
could
even
be
suffocated!
You
should
therefore
keep
all
packaging
well
away
from
children.
All
used
packaging
materials
are
environmentally
friendly
and
reusable.
The
cardboard
parts
are
produced
from
recycled
paper,
and
the
wood
parts
are
untreated.
The plastics are marked as follows:
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. packaging foils
>PS<__ for polystyrene, e.g. padding (basically CFC-free)
>POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clamps
By
recycling
and
reuse
of
the
packaging,
raw
materials
can
be
saved
and
the
volume
of
refuse
reduced.
Give
the
packaging
for
reuse
to
your
local
recycling
centre.
Your
municipal
or
local
authority
will
give
you
its address.
Disposing of your old machine
When
your
machine
needs
replacing
and
you
withdraw
it
from
service,
you
should
render
it
unserviceable
before
having
it
disposed
of.
A
Warning!
Children
at
play
could
lock
themselves
in
your
machine
(and suffocate) or otherwise endanger their lives. Therefore pull out the
mains
plug
and
detach
and
discard
the
electrical
supply
lead.
Disable
the
door
lock so that the door no longer closes.
Marking of plastic parts for graded recycling:
All
plastic
parts
in
your
machine
are
marked
with
internationally
standardised
abbreviations
(e.g.
>PS<
for
polystyrene).
When
your
machine
is
disposed
of,
this
enables
plastic
waste
to
be
sorted
into
individual
types
for
environmentally
conscious
recycling.
Take
your
decommissioned
machine
to
your
local
recycling
centre
or
dealer,
who
will
take
it
back
from
you
for
a
small
handling
charge.

Important hints
Operating your dishwasher economically and with regard
for the environment
Connect your dishwasher to the hot water supply if you have a modern hot water
system. For electrically heated installations, you are recommended to connect
your dishwasher to the cold water supply.
Do not pre-rinse your dishes under running water.
Collect your dirty dishes, stack them in the dishwasher, and only wash them when
both baskets are full, making sure that the latter are never overloaded. Only then
can you be sure that you are machine-washing economically and with regard for
the environment.
However, should you ever wish to machine-wash at half load, the sensor logic
electronically calculates precisely the amount of water you need and shortens the
programme time. This allows you to achieve the best machine washing results at
automatically the minimum water and energy consumption.
Always select the programme corresponding to the type of crockery and degree
of soiling (see “Programme chart’).
Never overdose detergent, special salt, and rinse aid. Follow the dosage recom-
mendations in these operating instructions as well as the instructions given by
the manufacturers of these products.
Make sure that the water softener is correctly set.
Unsuitable crockery
Sponges, household cloths, and all objects which can become saturated with
water should not be cleaned in your dishwasher.
The following are unsuitable for machine washing:
— wooden boards or platters
— non-heat-resistant plastic parts
— lead crystal glass
— tin or copper items
— glued crockery or cutlery
— older types of cutlery with temperature-sensitive adhesive
— steel knives that are liable to rust
— cutlery with wood, horn, porcelain, and mother-of-pearl! handles.
Crockery that may be suitable for your dishwasher
The following items have certain machine washing limitations:
— Only wash earthenware crockery in your dishwasher if the manufacturer has
expressly indicated it as being suitable for that purpose.
— Some types of decoration which have been painted over the glaze may fade
after frequent machine washing.
— Silver and aluminium parts tend to discolour during machine washing. Many
food residues, such as egg white, egg yolk, mustard, often cause discoloura-
tions or staining on silver. Silver crockery and cutlery should therefore always
be cleaned free from food residues if they are not washed immediately after a
meal.
— Some types of glass may become cloudy after many washing cycles.
When buying new crockery and cutlery, confirm that they are dishwasher-proof.

3 On the AUTOMATIC programmes, the turbidity of the dishwashing water is used to determine how heavily your crockery
is soiled. If your crockery is heavily soiled, your dishwasher runs the programme sections in parentheses. If your crockery
is lightly soiled, your dishwasher omits these programme sections. The programme duration and water and energy
consumption on the AUTOMATIC programmes may therefore vary.

How to operate your machine
Before
using
your
dishwasher
for
the
first
time
To
ensure
protection
of
the
crockery
baskets
during
transport,
we
have
packed
them
with
clamps.
Please
remove
all
clamps
before
operating
your
dishwasher.
When
your
new
dishwasher
is
correctly
set
up
and
installed,
you
must
first
make
it
ready
for
use.
Before
using
your
dishwasher
for
the
first
time,
proceed
as
follows:
— set the water softener;
~ fill the special salt container with special salt;
— fill the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.
The
following
sections
give
you
more
detailed
information
on
the
individual
points.
Setting the water softening system
Soft
(low-lime)
water
is
necessary
for
machine
washing
to
avoid
lime
deposits
on
crockery
and
in
your
dishwasher.
Tap
water
with
a
hardness
above
4
°d'
(Ger-
man
degree)
must
therefore
be
softened
for
machine
washing.
For
this
purpose,
your
dishwasher
is
fitted
with
a
water
softener.
The
water
softener
is
treated
(regenerated)
automatically
and
at
regular
intervals
with
salt
solution.
The
salt
consumption
needed
for
regeneration
thus
depends
on
the
local
water
hardness.
Your
competent
water
company
will
provide
you
with
information
about
water
hardness
in
your
locality.
To ensure optimum regeneration of the water softener:
-
the
water
softening
system
must
be
set
to
the
local
water
hardness;
—
the
dishwasher
salt
container
must
always
be
filled
with
special
salt.
GB/EU
VIB) GB/EU — WHB-1(1}

How to operate your machine
Filling with special dishwasher salt
Important:
if the water hardness in your locality is below 4 °d, you need not fill your dish-
washer with special salt.
Important note:
Use only special dishwasher salt. Other types of salt (e.g. cooking salt) often
contain water-insoluble components which choke the water softener and may
render it unserviceable.
Salt and detergent packs often look very much alike. Detergent inadvertently
poured into the salt container will damage the water softener. Each time you fill it
with special salt, make sure you are really holding a salt pack in your hand.
Gj Open the door, and take out the lower basket.
Cj Unscrew the cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
Only when using your dishwasher for the first time: Fill the salt container
with around 0.65 litre of water.
Oj Place the funnel supplied on the opening of the salt container.
Fill the salt container with special salt through the funnel. The container holds
around 1.0-1.5 kg depending on the salt grain size. Do not overfill the con-
tainer.

© Clean the container opening so that no salt residues exist.
Gj Screw the cap back on clockwise. The cap must be tightly closed, since salt
will otherwise find its way into the rinse water and may make your glasses
cloudy.
Olf you do not wash your crockery immediately after filling with salt, run the
PRE-WASH programme to rinse away any salt water and salt grains that have
been spilt.
Salt replenishment indicator
You must replenish special salt when the contro! panel shows the illuminated
message S. After replenishment, the illuminated message goes off in some
circumstances only after one to two programme cycles.

How to operate your machine
Filling with rinse aid
The rinse aid ensures that the last rinse water flows off, leaving no drops, and
gives your crockery its final sparkle. During a washing programme, rinse aid is
automatically dispensed from the dispenser.
Important note:
Use only a branded rinse aid for domestic dishwashers. Other agents, e.g. vinegar
essence, may damage your machine and do not produce the desired effect.
Detergent (also liquid detergent) inadvertently poured into the dispenser will
damage your machine.
The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door.
©) Open the coor.
OC Open the dispenser by twisting the cap ‘/: revolution anticlockwise.
G Fill with rinse aid max. up to the dotted line. The maximum capacity is around
150 mi.
