Wie starte ich den Geschirrspüler HED 120B?

Stellen Sie sicher, dass das Gerät angeschlossen und der Wasserhahn geöffnet ist. Geschirr laden, Spülmittel einfüllen, Tür schließen. Drücken Sie den Ein-/Aus-Schalter, drehen Sie den Programmwähler auf das gewünschte Programm und drücken Sie Start/Reset.

Was bedeutet das Blinken aller Programmleuchten?

Wenn alle vier Programmleuchten gleichzeitig blinken, zeigt dies eine Fehlfunktion an. Schalten Sie das Gerät aus, trennen Sie es vom Stromnetz und schließen Sie den Wasserhahn, bevor Sie den Kundendienst rufen.

Wie kann ich ein laufendes Programm ändern?

Drücken Sie die Start/Reset-Taste länger als drei Sekunden, um das aktuelle Programm abzubrechen. Wählen Sie dann ein neues Programm und drücken Sie erneut Start/Reset. Hinweis: Das Ausschalten per Ein-/Aus-Schalter bricht das Programm nicht ab.

Warum gibt es Schaum im Innenraum?

If all the lights begin to glimmer, that indicates the machine is out of order, please turn off the main power and water supply before calling a service.

NOTE: If your model have not water softener, you may skip this section.

WATER SOFTENER

There are two ways to reduce the water hardness: one way is using water softener, the other is using detergent.

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.

The appliances is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.

Loading the Salt into the Softener

Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.

The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:

Line drawing of a hand pouring granular material into a container with a lid and side holders (no text or symbols)

1 Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
2 If you are filling the container for the first time, fill 2/3 of its volume with water.
3 Place the end of the funnel(supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container
4 Carefully screw the cap back on.

NOTE:

1. The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light comes on. Though the salt container is filled enough, the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully dissolve.
2. If there are spills of the salt, a soak program could be run to wipe them out.

Adjusting Salt Consumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption so that the salt consumption could be set proceed as follows:

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with no visible text or symbols

1 Unscrew the cap from the salt container.
2 There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see Figure to the side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the anticlockwise direction from the "-" Setting toward the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used. It is recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following schema:

WATER HARDNESS			Selector Position	Salt consumption (gram/cycle)	Auto nomy (cycles/2kgs)
^ FH	^ dH	mmol/l
0~10	0-5	0-1.0	-	0	/
10~25	5-14	1.0-2.5	/	20	60
25~50	14-28	2.5-5.0	MED	40	40
>50	>28	>5.0	+	60	25

Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.

YOU MAY NOT ADD TOO MUCH DETERGENT TO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF DEPOSITS BECAUSE YOUR DISHWASHERS HAVE SPECIALLY-DESIGNED WATER SOFTENERS.

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the "Wash Cycle Table". Your dishwashers use less detergent and rinse aid than conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Amount of Detergent to Use

IF THE WATER ISN'T TOO HARD, YOU MAY ALSO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF DEPOSITS BY ADDING DETERGENT. The amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in water hardness. To determine the water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or area water softening company. The harder the water, the more detergent you may need. Remember, you should adjust the amount of detergent you use by small amounts until you find the correct amount.

▲WARNING!

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.

RINSE AID DISPENSER

Line drawing of a microwave oven with labeled components and a rotary button (no text or symbols)

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.
Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.
- Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser

Removing Hard Water Spots

To remove hard water spots, try the following:

■ Run dishes through a normal wash program.
■ Remove all metal dishware, such as cutlery, pans, etc., from the dishwasher.
Do not add detergent.
Pour two cups of vinegar into a bowl and set the bowl face up on the lower rack of the dishwasher.
■ Run the dishes through a normal wash program.

If this doesn't work, try the same process with 1 / 4 cup of citric acid crystals instead of vinegar.

Proper Use of Detergent

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until You're ready to wash dishes.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to "sheet" off the dishes.

Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The dispenser holds about 100 ml of liquid rinse aid.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause oversudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close the dishwasher door.

If you have soft water, you may not need rinse aid for it may cause a white film to develop on your dishes.

A measured amount of rinse aid is released during the final rinse. As with detergent, the amount of rinse aid needed for your dishes depends on the hardness of the water in your area. Too much rinse aid can result in lather of foaming and cause cloudiness or steaks on your dishes. If the water in your area is very soft, you may not need rinse aid. If you do, you can dilute the rinse aid with an equal amount of water.

The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. Always start with the dispenser set on "1". If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "2". If the dishes still are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. We suggest you to set on "4". (If only four settings we suggest you to set on "2".)

In accordance with En50242 standard, the dispenser should be set on the maximum lever when doing the performance.

When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

If there is no rinse aid warning light in the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse aid by the following means. The black dot on the rinse aid dispenser indicates the amount of rinse aid in the dispenser. As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.

How to use the Lower Rack

We recommend that you place large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

■ Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed top down.
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.
The bottom rack feature fold down tine rows so that larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.

7 Dessert dishes
8 Oval platter
9 Soup plates
10 Dinner plates
11 Silverware basket

SILVERWARE BASKET

Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with handles at the bottom: If the rack has side baskets, the spoon should be loaded individually into the appropriate slots. Especially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.

1 Forks

5 Knife

2 Soup spoons

6 Serving spoon

3 Dessert spoons

7 Gravyladle

4 Teaspoons

8 Serving fork

▲ WARNING!

Do not let any item extend through bottom.

At the End of the Wash Cycle

When the working cycle has finished, the buzzer of dishwasher will mooing 8 second, then stop. Turn off the appliance using the ON/OFF button, shut off the water supply and open the door of the dishwasher. Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.

Forget to Add a Dish?

A forgotten dish can be added any time before the detergent cup opens.

1 Open the door a little to stop the washing.
2 After the spray arms stop working, you can open the door completely.

3 Add forgotten dishes.
4 Close the door, the dishwasher will work after ten second.

▲ WARNING!

It is dangerous to open the door when washing, because the hot water may be scalded to you.

Filtering System

For your convenience, we have placed the drain pump and filtering system within easy reach inside the tub. There are three components of the filtering system: the main filter, the coarse filter, and the fine filter.

1 Main filter Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down the drain.
2 Coarse filter Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze the tabs on top of this filter and lift it out.
3 Fine filter This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a cycle.

Caring for the Dishwasher

To clean the control panel use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the dishwasher outside, do not use solvents (degreasing action) neither abrasives, but only a cloth soaked with water.

Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Diagram of a lever with a central fulcrum and an upward arrow, labeled 'Uncrew' below (no other text or symbols)

Protect Against Freezing

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technician to:

1 Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.
2 Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3 Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)

4 Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.

5 Remove the plastic sump cover in the tub the bottom and use a sponge to soak up water in rubber boot.

Cleaning the Spray Arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings. To remove the spray arm, screw off the nut to take out the washer on top of the spray arm and remove the arm. Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them thoroughly.

Cleaning the Filters

Technical diagram of a mechanical assembly with rotating components and mounting holes (no text or labels)

Filter assembly

For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned.

The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned at least once a month.

To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures left and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and pressing downward.

The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

▲ WARNING!

Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.

Diagram of a vehicle door frame with a handle and seat, no text or symbols present

To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.

Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will scratch the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

▲ WARNING!

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel for it could damage the door lock and electrical components. It is not allowed to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel because of the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

How to Keep Your Dishwasher in Shape

After Every Wash

After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Remove the Plug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.

No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

When You Go on Holiday

When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

■ Moving the Appliance

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

About Electricity Connecting

CAUTION, for personal safety:

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.

Electrical Requirements

Fused electrical supply is required-copper wire only. Time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate circuit serving only this appliance. Outlet should be placed in adjacent cabinet.

Make sure that the plug on the appliance remains accessible after installation.

Electrical Connection

Insure proper ground exists before use

After making sure that the voltage and the frequency values for the current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate and that the electrical system is sized for the maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the socket(installed by a qualified electrician), rather than using a adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

About the unicouple.

We have two models of connectors, one type is shown as below, the other have a thread of 3 / 4 inch.

Diagram of a mechanical switch assembly with a screwdriver inserted (no text or labels)

The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused.

Water pressure must be between 0,04 MPa and 1 MPa. If the pressure is below the minimum consult our Service Department for advice.

Attach the faucet adapter. The special faucet adapter supplied with your dishwasher must be assembled to the sink faucet before you can use your dishwasher if your faucet has not threads. You will find the adapter installed with unicouple.

If faucet has not threads: attach the faucet adapter to faucet, then tighten every screw of the adapter. To prevent leaking your should tighten the adapter.

How to Connect the Unicouple

Line drawing of a hand holding a mechanical component with a curved handle (no text or symbols)

Connector of Model I

1 Pull Unicouple and its hoses completely out from storage compartment located at rear of dishwasher and attach it to the faucet adapter.
2 Attach the Unicouple connector to the faucet adapter by depressing the collar at the top of the connector. When Unicouple is all the way up onto the adapter, release the collar. It will then snap into position to lock the Unicouple in place. The Unicouple's small hose carries water from the faucet to the dishwasher. Its large hose carries drain water to the sink. Be sure Unicouple is pointing toward the sink bowl drain opening and the sink drain is open for water that will drain from your dishwasher. If your dishwasher drains into a disposer, operate the disposer until it is completely empty before starting the dishwasher.
3 Turn water fully on before starting the dishwasher.

▲ WARNING!

A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole plugged.

How to Disconnect the Unicouple from Faucet Adapter

1 Turn off the water.
2 Release the water pressure by depressing the pressure release button. This relieves water pressure and protects you, and the room, from severe splashing.
3 Release Unicouple from faucet by depressing the collar at the top of the Unicouple connector.

How to Disconnect the Dishwasher

1 Remove the power cord plug from the wall receptacle.

2 Disconnect Unicouple from faucet adapter.

Connector of Model II

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(inch) connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the appliance.

Hot Water Connection

The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house hot water line (centralized system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60^ C. In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.

The connection must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water line.

Positioning the Appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.

Levelling the Appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the height of the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2°.

Drain hose Connection

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. Use the special plastic support that comes with the appliance. The free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100cm and must not be immersed in water.
