1 Safety precautions
1.2 General safety precautions
▪Read the operating instructions before using the appliance for
the first time!
▪This appliance can be used by children aged 8 and above

Before using for the first time
▪The appliance must be installed and connected to the electricity supply in
accordance with the separate installation instructions. Have a qualified fitter/
electrician carry out the necessary work.
The appliance was tested with water before being shipped. There may
therefore still be traces of water left in the appliance.
Correct use
▪Any repairs, modifications or manipulations to the appliance, especially any
electrically live parts, may only be carried out by the manufacturer, its Cus-
tomer Services or a similarly qualified person. Repairs if carried out incor-
rectly may cause serious injury, damage to the appliance and fittings, as
well as affect the functioning of the appliance. If the appliance is not work-
ing properly or in case of a repair order, follow the instructions given in the
«Service & Support» section. Please contact our Customer Services if ne-
cessary.
▪Use original spare parts only.
▪Retain these operating instructions for future reference.

▪Only use detergent, rinse agent and regeneration salt explicitly recommen-
ded for use with your appliance by the manufacturer in its instructions for
use. Follow the corresponding instructions for use carefully.

damage to the appliance!
▪Do not use washing-up liquid as it can cause excessive foaming, causing
your appliance to malfunction.
▪After filling the salt reservoir, run the programme without dishes.

tergent. If this were to happen, however, do not operate the appliance under
any circumstances, as this could cause expensive damage to it. Call Cus-

paint, wax, chemicals (acids or bases) or iron chippings or that can shed
fibres in the appliance.

can damage wood combination fascias. Spectacles can steam up, impair-
ing your vision.
Caution: Risk of injury!
▪Do not lean on any part of the appliance – risk of accident!
▪Keep pets away from the appliance.
Caution: Risk to life!

dicator illuminates, even if using detergent.

and raclette pans, gratin dishes...). Only use dishwasher-safe fondue
pans. Add detergent to the pre-rinsing compartment to improve the

filter system before starting the programme. For cleaning the appli-
ance and the water outlet thoroughly.

4 Programme overview
4.2 Additional functions
Energy saving
Reduces the wash temperature during cleaning by 5°C, providing
energy savings of about 10% and gentle washing for glassware.
Partial load
With partial load, the programme is adapted to the smaller load. The
quantity of water is reduced significantly, saving between 1and6l of
water.
With the additional «Partial load» function, the programme duration is
shortened by up to 30minutes.
Delayed start
The delayed start allows you to wash during off-peak hours (e.g. at
off-peak electricity rates). A delayed start of between 1 and 24 hours
can be set. The delayed start duration last entered is shown as a
suggestion.
