Read through the directions for use before
starting to use your machine, especially the
Safety, Child Safety and Basic Course
sections.
Phone your local Water Board to check the
water hardness in your area.This is important
when dispensing dishwasher detergent and
rinse aid.
Take care with certain materials
Read the section ‘Fragile Dishes’ before
washing china with unglazed decoration or
other household goods made of plastic,
wood or crystal requiring careful treatment.
If you have a machine with a water
softener
Once you know the water hardness, you
can set the water softener, see Settings.
Before you start dishwashing, you must
also fill with salt, see Salt.
Check the door
Check that the door of the dishwasher fits
properly: open the door a little and let it go.
Does it stay exactly where you released it?
If not, you should check the installation
instructions or consult the installer.

General
Cleaning
Winter storage/Transport
Only use a slightly damp cloth for cleaning
around the edge of the door. Do not use a
spray bottle! Water can penetrate into the
lock and come into contact with the elec-
trical components.
• Read and keep the directions for use!
• Installation of water, drainage and elec-
tricity must be carried out by a qualified
professional.
• Do not use the dishwasher for any pur-
poses other than those stated in these
directions for use.
• Do not load the dishwasher door or the
dishwasher baskets with anything other
than dishes.
• Only use dishwasher detergent!
• Place knives and other sharp objects so
that they cannot cause injury to people or
damage the dishwasher.
Packaging materials
Sort at source in accordance with the re-
commendations of your local authority.
Scrapping
When the time comes for the machine to be
scrapped, it should immediately be ren-
dered unusable. Remove the plug and cut
off the lead as short as possible.
Never put dishes containing solvent residue
in the machine due to risk of explosion.
Neither may dishes containing ashes, wax
or lubricating grease be washed in the
dishwasher.
Contact your refuse collection department
or your local authority for information on the
correct way to dispose of the machine!
The machine is manufactured and labelled
for recycling.
Winter storage/Transport
Store the machine away from frost.
Avoid long journeys in extreme cold. Trans-
port the machine in an upright position or
lying on its back.
Overfill protection
The overfill protector starts pumping out
water and closes off the water intake if the
machine’s water level exceeds the normal
level. If the overfill protector starts up, shut
off the water supply and phone for service.
See ‘Troubleshooting’ on pages 26-28.

achieve the best possible dishwashing results. middle for small items or narrow shafts,
such as electric whisks.
Load the baskets correctly!
Place long cutlery and carving knives in the
special knife box (if available) or in the
upper basket.
Your dishwasher is equipped with Super
Cleaning System™. It is therefore not nec-
essary to rinse the dishes before washing.
Check that the spray arms are able to move
freely.
Simply remove large food particles and de-
bris. Convenient and environmentally friendly!
See the section entitled Fragile Items if you
want to wash objects that may be fragile.
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates and
dishes in the upper basket, wine glasses
should be placed on the shelf with the wavy
edge, and knives in the knife stand if present.
NB!
Ensure that all soiled surfaces face inwards
or downwards!
Dispensing dishwasher
detergent
Detergent should be dispensed in accordance
with the water’s hardness level.
Place dinner plates, side plates, serving
dishes, saucepans and cutlery (in the cut-
lery basket) in the lower basket.The remov-
able plate insert, which comes with certain
models, can be easily removed to provide
room for large plates, saucepans and pots,
or placed in three alternative positions.
Follow the dosage instructions on the deter-
gent package. If your machine is fitted with a
water softener, dispense as for soft water.
Pour the dishwasher detergent into the dish-
washer detergent compartment.There is one
compartment for pre-wash and one for main
wash, see Dispenser. Phone the dishwasher
detergent manufacturer if you have any ques-
tions regarding the detergent.
Stand the cutlery with handles downward
and as spread out as possible. Ensure that
spoons are not resting inside each other.
CAUTION!
Do not put cutlery made of different mater-
ials, e.g. silver and stainless steel, in the
same compartment (risk of stains).
Protect your children!
- Dishwasher detergent is corrosive!

full saves energy.
Wash at a lower temperature
If the load is only lightly soiled, you can
lower the temperature.
Select program with Economy
drying
To save more energy - use Economy drying.
You will get a better drying result if you
leave the door slightly open after the end of
the program.
Do not rinse before dishwashing
Thanks to the dishwasher’s Super Cleaning
System™ you do not need to rinse the
dishes under running water before loading
them into the machine.
Choose environmentally-friendly
dishwasher detergent
Read environmental declarations on the
package!
Connect to cold water supply
If the machine is connected to the cold
water, the operating time will be longer, as it
takes longer to heat up the water. However,
the extended washing time means that it is
possible to operate a program with a lower
washing temperature and still achieve the
same results.

Fragile dishes
A number of household goods are not suit-
able for machine washing. There can be
many reasons for this. Certain materials
cannot withstand intense heat, others can
be damaged by the dishwasher detergent.
Wood
Wooden articles should only be machine
washed if they are labelled as dishwasher
proof.
Aluminium
Fragile decoration
Aluminium can be dulled by machine wash-
ing. However, good quality aluminium
saucepans can be machine washed, al-
though a reduction in lustre should be ex-
pected.
China with decoration on top of the glaze
(the article has a rough feel) should not be
machine washed.
Crystal/ glass
Place the articles so that they do not knock
together during the wash. Use the lowest
possible wash temperature and the shortest
possible program. Do not heat dry! Antique
and very fragile items should not be ma-
chine washed.
Plastic
Certain types of plastic cannot withstand
the high temperature generated in machine
dishwashing.
To protect plastic articles
Select a program with Economy
temperature and Economy drying.
Glass which is machine washed at high
temperatures can in time develop a grey
film which cannot be removed. Wash fine
glass at the lowest temperature and with a
low dosage of dishwasher detergent.
Silver
Silver and stainless items should not come
into contact with each other as the silver
can discolour.
Cutlery with glued handles
Certain types of adhesive cannot withstand
machine washing. In such cases the handles
can come loose.

The display
When you have selected programme and
option, the display shows the length of time
the programme took the last time it was
used. When you have started the machine,
the display window shows how much of the
programme time remains.
This time can vary a little from one occasion
to another depending on the temperature of
the inlet water, the amount of dishes, the
ambient temperature, etc.
During the time the programme is operating,
the time is counted down and the remaining
programme time is shown in the window.
The remaining time is shown e.g. as 1:02,
which means that 1 hour and 2 minutes of
the programme remain.
NB!
During the first run of each programme, the
remaining time display can be slightly mis-
leading as the machine is estimating the
time. If the programme takes longer than
expected, it displays 1 minute until the
programme is finished.

When cleaning the edge around the door,
use only a slightly damp cloth, possibly with
a little detergent. Do not use a spray bottle
or similar around the door catch.This is to
ensure that water does not penetrate into
the door catch and come into contact with
the electrical components.
CAUTION!
Do not use a spray bottle or similar around
the door catch.
Tip!
In order to prevent bad odours in the
dishwasher, clean the strips and corners
with a dish brush and low-lather detergent.

Rinse aid
Pour in rinse aid
Select dosage
Drying proceeds more quickly if you use
rinse aid.
The dispenser is usually set at 1= soft water.
However, depending on the water hard-
ness, it may be necessary to change the
dosage.
Machines with indicator on the panel
When the rinse aid has run out and more is
needed, the rinse aid symbol on the panel
lights up*.
Open the rinse aid cover . Here you will find
the dispenser’s adjustment dial. Settings 1-6:
the harder the water, the higher the dosage.
When the water hardness exceeds 10-12 odH
you should use rinse aid with citric acid (acid
rinse aid) if the machine does not have a water
softening filter.If the machine has a water
softening filter, dispense as for soft water.
To fill with rinse aid:
1.Turn and lift up the cover of the rinse aid
compartment to the right of the dispenser.
This is where you top up and set the
amount of rinse aid to be dispensed in each
wash.
2. Carefully pour in rinse aid up to the knob
for dosage setting.
Alter dosage if required. Do not forget to
close the cover.
Too much rinse aid can lead to the build-up
of foam. If your water is particularly soft, you
can dilute the rinse aid (1 part rinse aid, 1
part water).
*NB!
Too much rinse aid can cause streaks on
the dishes, while too little can result in water
stains.
After filling there may be a short delay
before the signal light goes out.
Machines with refill indicator
There is a refill indicator in the middle of the
dispenser (see picture). If the refill indicator
is totally black, there is sufficient rinse aid.
However, if the indicator has a more
transparent appearance, you need to top up
with rinse aid (see above).

(applies to dishwashers with water softeners)
Salt
Pour in salt
Before using a dishwasher with a water
softening filter, you must fill the salt com-
partment with salt. Use coarse salt or spe-
cial salt for dishwashers.
Cover for the salt compartment
It is best to fill with salt when you are about
to do a wash, as the dishwasher needs to
be rinsed out immediately after filling.
Proceed as follows the first time:
1. First unscrew the cover as illustrated.
2. Place the funnel, which is supplied with
the dishwasher, into the compartment’s filler
hole. First pour in approximately 1 litre of
water.
3.Then fill the compartment with max 1.5 kg
salt.
4. Wipe away excess salt so that the cover
can be properly screwed into place.
5. Run a Normal wash program so that any
salt in the machine is rinsed away.
When the salt runs out, the salt symbol on
the display* lights up (this function is not
available on all machines). Unscrew the
cover and fill the compartment with salt.
Water is only needed on the first occasion!
Wipe clean and screw back in place. Run a
Normal wash program so that any salt is
rinsed away.
*NB!
After filling, there may be a short delay
before the signal light goes out.
CAUTION!
Never pour dishwasher detergent into the
salt compartment. It will destroy the water
softener!
The indicator is not working
If the indicator is not working, this may be
because the float, which is positioned under
the cover, has become stuck in salt residue.
The float can be reached through the green
arm located under the cover of the salt
compartment. Move the float arm up and
down to loosen it. Once the float has been
loosened, press it down again.
Models without a salt symbol in the display
show green in the salt compartment cover
when there is sufficient salt.

Connection to water
Connection to drainage
There must be a shut-off tap on the water
supply pipe. The shut-off tap should be
positioned above the work surface or at the
front of the sink unit.
When the drain hose is routed to a
connection nipple at the sink’s water trap
(see illustration 1), note that the hose must
be fastened level with the underside of the
sink unit – otherwise the dishwater from the
sink can run down into the dishwasher. The
drain hose is threaded onto a cone-shaped
connecting pipe at the sink unit’s water trap.
The cone-shaped pipe must be cut to an
internal diameter of at least 16 mm. For
other alternative connections, see
The water supply pipe has a connection
with a 1/2” or 3/4” internal thread depending
on country.
When the installation is complete, the shut-
off tap should be opened to allow the pres-
sure to settle for a while and to check that
all connections are tight.
illustrations 2 and 3.
The drain hose may be lengthened by a
maximum of 3 m (the total length of the
drain hose may not exceed 4.5 m). Any
connections and connecting pipes must
have an internal diameter of at least 16 mm.
However, the drain hose should ideally be
replaced with a new hose without joins.
Connection to electricity
A dishwasher fitted with a lead and plug
must be connected to an earthed socket.
Repairs and maintenance relating to safety
or performance must be carried out by a
qualified professional.
No part of the drain hose may be more than
950 mm above the bottom of the machine.
The hose must not be routed directly to the
floor drain or similar. In such cases, the
hose can act as a siphon and empty the
dishwasher.
Technical data
See the type plate on the right hand side of
the door.
CAUTION!
The lead must be disconnected or the socket
voltage-free while the work is carried out!
The hose must always discharge at least
350 mm above the bottom of the machine.
Connection to drainage
NB!
The hose must be fastened level with the
underside of the sink unit.
