Read the operating instructions
Read through the operating instructions before using
the dishwasher, especially the sections Safety
instructions, Child safety and Dishwashing.
Be careful with certain materials
Read the section Fragile dishes before dishwashing
porcelain with unglazed decoration or other utensils
made from plastic, wood or crystal that you value.
Checking water hardness
Contact the local waterworks to check the water
hardness in your area. This is important when
adjusting the water softener (see the section Settings).
Before you begin washing, you may also need to fill
up the salt (see the section Salt). Once you have
adjusted the water softener, use detergent and rinse
aid doses suitable for soft water.

Before washing for the first time

General
• Read the operating instructions and keep them in
a safe place!
• Never use the dishwasher for any purpose other
than that specified in these operating instructions.
• Do not load the dishwasher door or dishwasher
baskets with anything other than dishes.
• Never leave the dishwasher door open as
someone may trip on it.
• Use only dishwasher detergent!
• Place knives and other sharp items so that they
cannot harm anyone or damage the dishwasher.
• The machine is not designed to be used by
persons (even children) that are physically or
mentally handicapped or lack experience and
knowledge. Such persons must receive instruction
in how to use the machine from the person
responsible for their safety.
• Children must be watched to ensure they do not
play with the dishwasher.
• Damaged mains cables must only be replaced by
a qualified electrician.
• This dishwasher is for household or similar use,
such as:
- staff kitchens in shops, offices and other
workplaces.
- farms.
- for guests at hotels, motels and other types of
accommodation.
- bed & breakfast hotels.
• Never place dishes with solvent residues in the
dishwasher due to the risk of explosion. Nor may
dishes that contain ash, wax or lubricants be
washed in the dishwasher.
Installation
See the section Installation.
Winter storage/Transport
• Store the dishwasher where the temperature
remains above freezing.
• Avoid long transport distances in very cold
weather.
• Transport the dishwasher upright or laying on its
back.
Overflow guard function
The overflow protection starts pumping out the
machine and turns off the water supply if the water
level in the dishwasher exceeds the normal level. If
the overflow protection is triggered, turn off the water
supply and call the service division.
Cleaning
When cleaning the edge around the door, use only a
slightly damp cloth. Do not spray water around the
edge! Moisture can make its way into the lock, which
contains electrical components.
Packing material
Please sort waste materials in accordance with local
guidelines.
Disposal
• When the dishwasher has reached the end of its
service life and is to be disposed of, it should
immediately be made unusable. Pull out the power
cable and cut it as short as possible.
• The dishwasher is manufactured and labelled for
recycling.
• Contact your local authority for information about
where and how your dishwasher should be
correctly recycled.

Safety instructions

Child safety and dishwashing
• Use the knife stand for all long/sharp items.
• Always close the door and start the programme
immediately after you have added the detergent.
• Keep children away from the dishwasher when
the door is open. Some detergent may remain
inside!
• Do not allow children to use or play with the
dishwasher. Be especially vigilant when the door
is open.
WARNING!
Children must be supervised –
dishwasher detergent is corrosive!
Store detergent and rinse aid out of the reach of
children! If anyone swallows dishwasher detergent,
they should immediately drink one or two glasses of
milk or water. Do not attempt to induce vomiting.
Contact a doctor! If anyone gets dishwasher
detergent in their eyes, rinse (for at least 15 minutes)
with plenty of water.

Dispenser

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 Select options in the chapter Dishwashing.
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.
11
Economic dishwashing

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.
12
Fragile dishes

Below are step-by-step instructions to help you
achieve the best possible dishwashing results.
1Load the baskets correctly
Do not rinse dishes under running water before
loading them in the dishwasher. Simply scrape
off large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
See the section Fragile dishes if you want to wash
items that may be considered fragile.
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!
Lower basket
Place plates, side plates, serving dishes, pots and
cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket.
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 placed in the lower basket.
WARNING!
Knives and other pointed items must be placed with
the points down in the cutlery basket or horizontally
in other baskets.
Do not place cutlery made of different materials, such
as silver and stainless steel, in the same place (risk
of discolouration).
The cutlery basket has a fold-down section in the
middle for small items, or small shafts, such as electric
whisk attachments.
2Check that the spray arms can
rotate freely
3Add detergent
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 (see the section Dispenser). 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!
13
Dishwashing

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.
4Press the main power switch
and close the door
5Select the programme
Press the Programme selector one or more
times until the desired programme symbol
lights.
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.
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.
Normal wash
Use to wash normally dirty dishes, and even dishes
with dried leftovers, such as plates, serving dishes,
cups, glasses and so on.
Eco wash
Use when you want to save energy. For normally dirty
dishes.
Quick wash
This programme is used for glasses and porcelain
that is slightly dirty, such as coffee cups.
Rinse & Hold
Used to rinse dishes while you wait for the dishwasher
to become fully loaded.
