BEFORE WASHING FOR THE FIRST
TIME
DEAR GORENJE+ CUSTOMER!
We hope that you will have many years of use
from your new machine.
The machine has many features. To make the
most of its functions, we recommend that you
read the operating instructions before using the
machine. The operating instructions include
information on how you can help protect the
environment.
PROGRAMME KEY
Some dishwashers include programme keys in
different languages. Attach the programme 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 hardness 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 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.
ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENER
Chapter Settings, page 16 describes how to adjust
the water softener. Don't forget to fill the salt
compartment with salt after adjusting the water
softener.
4

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
programme. 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 programme 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
programme 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
Drying is faster if you use rinse aid.
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.
SELECTING 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.
SETTING THE RINSE AID DOSAGE
The section Settings describes how to set the rinse
aid dosage.
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.

LOADING THE DISHWASHER
ECONOMIC DISHWASHING
Run programmes only with a full load
Wait to run a programme until the dishwasher is
full, this way you save energy. Use the Rinse &
Hold programme to rinse the dishes if there are
any unpleasant odours while you wait for the
dishwasher to become fully loaded.
Run programmes at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select
a lower temperature with certain programmes.
See also the section Selecting Options in the
chapter Using the dishwasher.
Select a programme with Short dry
To save energy, use Short dry. The drying result
will be better if, once the programme is finished,
you leave the door slightly open.
Do not rinse under running water
Simply scrape off large food particles before
loading the dishwasher.
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 programme 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
Position items so that they do not touch each
other during the wash. Use the lowest possible
wash temperature and the shortest possible
programme. Select Short dry. Antique and very
fragile items should not be washed in a
dishwasher.
Glass washed in a dishwasher at high temperatures
can gradually develop a grey film that cannot be
removed. Wash fragile glasses at a low
temperature and with a small amount of
detergent.
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 temperatures.
UPPER BASKET
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates and saucers
in the upper basket. Wine glasses are placed on
the wine glass shelf and knives are placed in the
knife stand on the right (if fitted).
NOTE!
All dirty surfaces should face inwards and
downwards!
6

MIDDLE BASKET
The middle basket's wire basket with spray pipes
is suitable for low objects. The middle basket's
utensils basket has space for ladles, whisks, serving
cutlery and similar items.
The wire basket can be replaced with another
utensils basket.
Wire basket
Utensils basket
Washing larger items
The two baskets in the middle basket can be
removed, or the entire middle basket can be
removed, to create more space between the
upper and lower baskets if larger items are being
washed.
NOTE!
Fit the supplied protective cap (in the enclosed
plastic bag) if the wire basket with spray pipes
or the entire middle basket is removed. Don't
forget to remove the protective cap when the
wire basket with spray pipes or the entire
middle basket is refitted.
Protective cap
LOWER BASKET
Place plates, side plates, serving dishes, pots and
cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket.
Place pots and pans in the rear of the lower
basket to best utilise dishwashing performance
from the two rear spray nozzles, which are
intended for these types of dishes.
Fold-down plate supports
Lower the fold-down plate supports when
washing pots.

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, which is intended for the cutlery basket.
NOTE!
Do not place cutlery made of different
materials, such as silver and stainless steel, in the
same place (risk of discolouration).
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 dishwasher 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 one compartment for the prewash and
one for the main wash. If tablets are not 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 corrosive!
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 programmes (less than 75 minutes). Use
powder or liquid dishwasher detergent instead.
3-in-1/All-in-one detergent
Read through the directions for these products
carefully. If anything is unclear, contact the
detergent manufacturer.
PROGRAMME SELECTION
Press the Programme selector one or more times
until the desired programme symbol appears on
the display.
Auto wash
The dishwasher can measure how dirty the dishes
are and adjust water consumption and
temperature accordingly. When newly installed,
the programme needs to be run five times before
it is fully adapted and can provide the best results.
Time program
The programme adapts to the specified running
time or finish time. With this programme it is
important to choose a time suited to how dirty
the dishes are.
Slightly dirty dishes0:30-1:15
Normally dirty dishes1:30-2:00
Very dirty dishes2:15-3:00
To set the programme time, see the section
Selecting Options.
Heavy wash
Programme for very dirty dishes, such as pans,
casserole dishes and oven dishes. If these dishes
do not completely fill the dishwasher, you can add
plates and the like.
9

Normal wash
Powerful programme for daily use that can
remove dried leftovers, but is not intended for
burnt food, such as on oven dishes. This
programme provides maximum rinse effect, and
takes longer than Daily wash.
Daily wash
This is also an effective programme for daily use
for slightly dried leftovers, but is not intended for
burnt food, such as on oven dishes.
Quick wash
This programme is used for glasses and porcelain
that is slightly dirty, such as coffee cups.
Super Quick wash
Short programme lasting about 15 minutes with
acceptable results for very slightly dirty dishes.
Delicate wash
If the dishes are not very dirty, you can select
Delicate wash. This programme is intended for
glasses and porcelain that have just been used and
as such do not require such a powerful
programme.
This programme can be used for fragile dishes.
Select Short dry if you want to be especially
cautious. See also the section Fragile dishes in the
chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Eco wash
This programme is intended for cleaning normally
dirty dishes and is the most effective programme
in terms of combined energy and water
consumption.
The High temperature option must be selected
to access the programme used to compile the
information for energy labelling.
Upper half wash
You can use this programme if you only have cups
and glasses that need washing in the upper basket.
Slightly dirty dishes can also be placed in the lower
basket.
Lower half wash
You can use this programme when you only want
to wash plates and cutlery in the lower basket.
Slightly dirty dishes can also be placed in the upper
basket.
Rinse & Dry
This programme comprises a rinse with heating
and drying. This is a suitable programme if, for
example, you plan to make jam and want to rinse
and heat clean glass jars.
Rinse & Hold
Used to rinse dishes while you wait for the
dishwasher to become fully loaded.
SELECTING OPTIONS
To select an option, press one of the option
buttons. The field under the button lights when
the option is activated. The available options
depend on the selected programme. Once you
have started the programme, the options you

uses more energy and water. This option can be
selected with the programmes Heavy wash,
Normal wash, Daily wash, Upper half wash and
Lower half wash.
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.
NOTE!
If the machine does not start within 2 minutes
of the last button press, the display returns to
showing the last programme run.
TIME REMAINING
Once you have selected a programme and
options, the display indicates how long the
programme took the last time it was used. 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 ambient
temperature and other factors.
NOTE!
During the first run of each programme, the
remaining time displayed can be slightly
misleading, as the dishwasher is estimating the
time. When you run the programme a second
time, the dishwasher will calculate the remaining
time based on the previous duration of the
programme.
