Before washing for the
first time
Program key
Some dishwashers include program keys in different languages.
Attach the program key in the desired language to the top of the
door.
The water softener
In order to achieve good dishwashing results, the dishwasher
needs soft water (water with low mineral content). Hard water
leaves a white coating on dishes and the dishwasher.
Water hardness is specified using the following scales: The
German water hardness scale (°dH) and the French water hard-
ness scale (°fH). A water supply with a water hardness in excess
of 6°dH (9°fH) must be softened. This is done automatically with
the aid of the built-in water softener. In order for the softener to
function optimally, it must be adjusted to the hardness of the
water supply.
Contact the local waterworks, or measure the water hardness
using the supplied test strip, to check the water hardness in your
area. Once you have adjusted the water softener, use detergent
and rinse aid doses suitable for soft water.
How to use the test strip:
1 Turn on the water tap and let the water run for a minute or so.
2 Fill a glass with cold water.
3 Remove the test strip from its packaging.
4 Dip the test strip in the water for about one second.
5 Wait one minute. Now compare the colours of the squares
with the water hardness table.

Adjusting the water softener
In section Settings on page 12 the process for setting the water
softener is described. Don't forget to put salt in the salt compart-
ment after you have set the water softener.
Fill up the salt
Before you begin using a dishwasher with a water softener, you
must fill the salt compartment with salt. Use large grain salt or
special dishwasher salt.
WARNING!
Top up the salt just before running a program. To avoid the risk
of rust stains, the dishwasher must be rinsed immediately after
topping up the salt.
Never pour dishwasher detergent into the salt compartment.
This destroys the water softener!
Do as follows the first time:
1 Unscrew the lid as illustrated.
2 Place the funnel supplied with the dishwasher in the salt
compartment top-up hole. First, pour in about 1 l of water.
3 Then add salt, a maximum of 1.5 kg, until the compartment is
full.
4 Wipe up any excess salt so that the lid can be screwed on
firmly.
5 Run a program to ensure that any salt in the dishwasher is
rinsed away.
Salt compartment lid
Refill salt indicator
When the salt needs topping up, the above symbol lights on the
display.
When the salt runs out, unscrew the cap and fill the container
with salt. Water is only needed the first time! Wipe clean and
tighten. Run a program to ensure that any salt in the dishwasher
is rinsed away.
NOTE!
After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes
out.
Top up with rinse aid
By using rinse aid you will improve your drying result. You will
also achieve a better dishwashing result with glassware and
dishes.
1 Open the rinse aid compartment lid.
2 Carefully top up with rinse aid. Only add rinse aid to the level
marked max.
3 Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the compartment.
4 Close the lid firmly.
Refill rinse aid indicator
When the rinse aid needs topping up, the above symbol lights
on the display.

NOTE!
After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes
out.
Setting the rinse aid dosage
The section Settings describes how to set the rinse aid dosage.
Rinse aid dispensing can be set from (Off) to (High
dose). (Factory settings: )
Increase the rinse aid dosage:
•If the dishes have water marks.
Decrease the rinse aid dosage:
•If the dishes have a sticky white/blue film.
•If the dishes are streaked.
•Build-up of foam. If you have very soft water, the rinse aid can
be diluted 50:50 with water.
Loading the dishwasher
Economic dishwashing
Run programs only with a full load
Wait to run a program until the dishwasher is full. This way you
save energy. Use the Rinse & Hold program to rinse the dishes
if there are any unpleasant odours while you wait for the dishwash-
er to become fully loaded.
Run programs at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select a program with
a low temperature.
Do not rinse under running water
Simply scrape off large food particles before loading the dish-
washer.
Choose a green detergent
Read the environmental declaration on the packaging!
Connect to cold water...
If you use oil or electricity to heat your home.
Connect to hot water (max. 70 °C)...
If you use district heating, solar power or geothermal power to
heat your home. Choosing a hot water connection cuts program
times and reduces the dishwasher's electricity consumption.
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several
reasons. Some materials cannot withstand strong heat, others
can be damaged by dishwashing detergent.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the items feel
rough) should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal/Glass
Place items so that they do not touch each other during the wash.
Use a short program with the lowest possible wash temperature.
Delicate and very fragile items should not be washed in a dish-
washer.
Glassware washed in a dishwasher at high temperatures can
gradually develop a grey film that cannot be removed. Wash fine
glassware at a low temperature and with a small amount of deter-
gent.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact, as
the silver can become discoloured.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In such cases, the
handles may loosen.
Wood
Wooden items should only be washed in a dishwasher if marked
dishwasher safe.
Aluminium
Aluminium can lose its shine if washed in a dishwasher. However,
good quality aluminium pans can be washed in a dishwasher,
even if some of the shine will be lost.
Plastic items
Avoid washing plastic items that cannot withstand high tempera-
tures.
The dishwasher's baskets
The dishwasher is equipped with an upper basket and a lower
basket with cutlery basket.
5

The appearance of the baskets may differ depending on the
dishwasher setup.
Upper basket
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates and saucers in the upper
basket. All dirty surfaces should face inwards and downwards!
Wine glasses are placed on the wine glass shelf and knives are
placed in the knife stand on the right (if fitted).
Raising the upper basket
1 Pull out the upper basket.
2 Grab the sides of the upper basket with both hands and lift it
up.
Lowering the upper basket
1 Pull out the upper basket.
2 Pull out the two locking handles on either side to lower the
upper basket.
Lower basket
Place plates, side plates, serving dishes, pots and cutlery (in the
cutlery basket) in the lower basket.
Place pots or pans in the right-hand rear part of the lower basket
for the best cleaning performance from the rear spray nozzle
(WideSpray™), which is intended for these types of dishes.
Foldable tines
Lower the foldable tines (plate supports) when washing pots and
pans. Release the foldable tines by pressing the catch inwards
before adjusting their position.
Washing large plates
Move the foldable tines and their mounts to widen the distance
between the tine rows to adapt the lower basket to plates with a
diameter greater than 25 cm.
Cutlery basket
Place cutlery with the handles facing down, except for knives,
and spread them out as much as possible. Ensure that spoons
do not stack inside each other.
The cutlery basket is best placed in the middle at the front of the
lower basket to best utilise dishwashing performance from the
unique spray nozzle (Power Zone Cutlery™), which is intended
for the cutlery basket.
WARNING!
Knives and other pointed items must be placed with the points
down in the cutlery basket or horizontally in other baskets.
Fold-down section for small items
The cutlery basket has a fold-down section in the middle for small
items, or small shafts, such as electric whisk attachments.

Using the dishwasher
Add detergent
1 Prewash detergent compartment
2 Main wash detergent compartment
Detergent is added according to water hardness.
Follow the instructions on the detergent packaging. This dishwash-
er is fitted with a water softener, so use detergent and rinse aid
doses suitable for soft water.
Too much detergent can result in less effective dishwashing and
also entails greater environmental impact.
Add the detergent to the detergent compartment. There is a
compartment for the prewash and one for the main wash. If
powder and liquid dishwasher detergents are used, add a small
amount of the detergent to the prewash compartment. Contact
the detergent manufacturer if you have any questions about the
detergent.
WARNING!
Children must be supervised –dishwasher detergent is corro-
sive!
NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Washing up liquid must not
be used as the foam that forms prevents the dishwasher from
operating effectively.
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser lid. There is
a risk that the detergent will not be released properly if the lid is
tight and will not open correctly.
NOTE!
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programs
(less than 75 minutes). Use powder or liquid dishwasher deter-
gent instead.
3–in–1/All-in-one detergent
Read through the directions for these products carefully. If any-
thing is unclear, contact the detergent manufacturer.
Chapter Settings describes how to activate TAB (3-in-1/All-in-one
detergent). Note that salt must be put in the salt compartment. If
you are not satisfied with the dishwashing or drying results, de-
activate the TAB (3-in-1/ All-in-one detergent) setting and top up
the salt, detergent and rinse aid. See Chapter Before washing
for the first time.

On/Left-on mode
Press and hold the On/Left-on mode button until the display lights
up.
Program selection
Press the Program selector one or more times until the desired
program symbol appears on the display.
Sani A
This program is ideal to use when hygiene demands are set high.
The temperature of the main wash is 60 °C °C. The final rinse is
85 °C °C for 6 minutes.
Sani B
Choose Sani B if you want a quicker program that still fulfils hy-
giene demands. The temperature of the main wash is 50 °C °C.
The final rinse is 85 °C °C for 3 minutes.
Heavy wash
Program for very dirty dishes, such as pans, casserole dishes
and oven dishes. If these dishes do not completely fill the dish-
washer, you can add plates and the like.
Normal program
Use to wash normally soiled load, such as plates, serving dishes,
cups, glasses and so on.
Daily wash
A program suitable for day-to-day dishwashing. This program
can also clean dried leftovers, but is not intended for burnt food,
such as on oven dishes.
Quick wash
This program is used for glasses and porcelain that is slightly
dirty, such as coffee cups.
Delicate wash
If the dishes are not very dirty, you can select Delicate wash. This
program is intended for glasses and porcelain that have just been
used and as such do not require such a powerful program.
This program can be used for delicate dishes. See also the sec-
tion Fragile dishes in Chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Eco wash
Use when you want to save water. For normally dirty dishes.
Rinse & Hold
Used to rinse dishes while you wait for the dishwasher to become
fully loaded.
Start the dishwasher
Press and hold Start/Stop until the display shows (the door
open symbol). This indicates that the dishwasher is ready to start.
Close the door properly, otherwise the dishwasher will not start.
The display flashes three times with the remaining time to indicate
that the program has started.
NOTE!
If the machine does not start within 2 minutes of the last button
press, the display returns to showing the last program run.
Time remaining
Once you have selected a program, the display indicates how
long the program took the last time it was used. Once you have
started the dishwasher, the display indicates how much program
time remains. The remaining time is updated after the water for
the final rinse has been heated.
This may differ somewhat from time to time depending on the
temperature of the water supply, the amount of dishes, the ambi-
ent temperature and other factors.
While the program is running, the time counts down and the re-
maining program time is shown on the display. The remaining
time is shown, for example, as 1:15, which means the program
will run for another 1 hour and 15 minutes.
NOTE!
During the first run of each program, the remaining time dis-
played can be slightly misleading, as the dishwasher is estimat-
ing the time. When you run the program a second time, the
dishwasher will calculate the remaining time based on the
previous duration of the program.
Stopping or changing a program
If you want to change program after starting the dishwasher,
open the door then press and hold Start/Stop for three seconds.
Add more detergent if the lid of the detergent dispenser has
opened. Then choose a new program, press Start/Stop and close
the door.
Do you want to add more dishes?
Open the door. The dishwasher stops automatically. Add the
dishes, close the door and the dishwasher continues the program.

the On/Left-on mode button or due
to a power failure
If the dishwashing program was not finished, the interrupted
program continues when power is restored.
NOTE!
During drying, the program is interrupted if the power is cut or
the door is open for more than 2 minutes.

Safety instructions
•Connections to electricity, water and drainage must be per-
formed by a qualified professional.
•Always follow applicable regulations for water, drainage and
electricity.
•An incorrect or flawed installation can result in higher consump-
tion of energy, water and detergent, which can result in in-
creased costs and poor dishwashing results. In order to min-
imise noise it is important that you follow the instructions.
•Take care during installation! Wear protective gloves! There
must always be two people!
•Before screwing the dishwasher into place, test the dishwasher
by running the Rinse & Hold program. Check that the dish-
washer fills with water and drains. Check also that none of the
connections leak.

Suggested machine installations
The dishwasher can be installed built-in, completely freestanding
or partially built-in.
A. Built-in
The dishwasher is intended for installation under a worktop. The
recess dimensions are illustrated. Holes for wires/cables need
not be larger than 38 mm in diameter. Make sure the edges of
such holes are even to prevent damage to the drainage and inlet
hoses and the power cable.

*Remove locking nuts for an installed height
of 820-821 mm.
[mm]
B. Freestanding
A freestanding dishwasher must be fitted with anti-tip brackets.
This comprises two brackets, which are screwed into place as
illustrated.
The dishwasher is then pushed in so that the brackets engage
the rear feet. Now the dishwasher will not topple if pressure is
put on the open door. If the dishwasher is installed completely
on its own, side panels and a worktop must both be fitted. Acces-
sories can be purchased where you bought the dishwasher.

side panel must be fitted. Accessories can be purchased where
you bought the dishwasher.
