- Remove overflowed rinse aid with a cloth.
This prevents excessive frothing during the next rinse cycle.
Setting amount of rinse aid
You can set the amount of rinse aid that should be added to a value between r:00 and r:05. Setting the amount of rinse aid to be dispensed to r:05 will give you a very good drying result. The factory setting is r:05. Do not change the amount of rinse aid unless there are streaks or water stains on the utensils. Set a lower level to avoid streaks. Set a higher level to avoid water stains.
Here's how to set the amount of rinse aid:
- Switch on ON/OFF switch 1.
-
Press and hold the setup 3 sec. button for 3 seconds. The value r:0... and setwill appear in the display window 9.
-
Adjust the setting using the buttons - and + 5.
-
Press and hold the setup 3 sec. button for 3 seconds.
The chosen setting has now been stored in your dishwasher.
Using detergent with a rinse aid component
In general, you can use detergent with a rinse aid component up to a water hardness level of 21 °dH (37 °fH, 26 °Clark, 3.7 mmol/L) without adding rinse aid. Above a water hardness value of 21 °dH, use additional rinse aid.
Switching off rinse aid refill indicator
If the rinse aid refill indicator 4 bothers you (e.g. if you are using a combination detergent with a rinse aid component), you can switch off the rinse aid refill indicator.
Proceed as described under "Setting rinse aid quantity" and set the level to r:00. The rinse aid refill indicator 4 is switched off.

Detergent
You can use tablets as well as powder or liquid detergents for dishwashers, but never use washing-up liquid. The dosage can be individually adjusted with powder or a liquid detergent according to the degree of soiling. Tablets contain an adequately large amount of active ingredients for all cleaning tasks. Modern, powerful detergents predominantly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes. Enzymes break down starch and remove protein. To remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, ketchup), oxygen-based bleaching agents are generally used.
Note: To ensure a good washing result, always follow the instructions on the detergent packaging! If you have further questions, we recommend that you contact the detergent manufacturers' helplines.

Warning
Risk of injury and damage due to non-observance of the safety instructions for detergent and rinse-aid products!
Always follow the safety instructions for detergent products and rinse-aid products.

Adding detergent
-
If the detergent dispenser 30 is still closed, actuate locking bar 31 to open it.
-
Pour detergent into the dry detergent dispenser 30 only (insert tablet flat, not on its edge).
-
Dosage: see manufacturer's instructions on the packaging. Use graduated detergent dispenser. Usually 20 ml–25 ml are adequate for normal soiling. If using tablets, one tablet is adequate.

text_image
50 ml 25 ml 15 ml- Close cover on the detergent dispenser. Cover "clicks" into position.

text_image
CLICKThe detergent dispenser opens automatically at the optimum time depending on the programme. The powder or liquid detergent is distributed in the appliance and is dissolved, the tablet falls into the tablet collecting tray where it dissolves in doses.
Tip: If the utensils are only lightly soiled, slightly less than the indicated amount of detergent is usually adequate.
Suitable detergents and care products can be purchased online via our website or via customer service (see back page).
Notes
If programmes are short, tablets may not have full cleaning effect due to different dissolving properties and there may even be undissolved detergent residue. It is recommended to use washing powder for these programmes.
■ The Intensive programme (on some models) requires one tab only. When using washing powder, you can apply some of this cleaning agent to the inside of the appliance's door.
■ If using detergents in a water-soluble protective cover: Take hold of the cover with dry hands only and put the detergent into an absolutely dry detergent dispenser only, otherwise the detergent may stick.
If you switch from combined detergents to solo detergents, ensure that the water softening system * and amount of rinse aid have been set to the correct value.
* depending on the features of your dishwasher

Programme selection
You can select a suitable programme according to the type of utensils and type of soiling.
Information for test institutes
Test institutes can request the conditions for running comparison tests by sending an e-mail to dishwasher@test-appliances.com.
Quote the appliance number (E-Nr.) and the production date (FD) which you can find on the rating plate 32 on the appliance door.

Additional functions
* Depending on the features of your dishwasher, you can select different additional functions 7.

Express Wash/ Speed fect/ (VarioSpeed) \*
This function can reduce the running time by approx. 20% to 50% depending on the selected rinse programme. To obtain optimum cleaning and drying results at a reduced running time, water and energy consumption are increased.

Half load \*
If you have only a few items to wash (e.g. glasses, cups, plates), you can switch to “half load”. This will save water, energy and time. It is recommended to put a little less detergent in the detergent dispenser than for a full load.

hygienePlus
(HygienePlus) \*
This function increases the temperatures and retains them for an extra long time to obtain a defined disinfection performance. Continuous use of this function increases the hygiene status. This additional option is ideal for cleaning e.g. chopping boards and baby bottles.

intensiveZone \*
Perfect for a mixed load. You can wash very soiled pots and pans in the lower basket together with normally soiled utensils in the upper basket. The spray pressure in the lower basket is intensified, the rinsing temperature is increased slightly.

Extra Dry \*
An increased temperature during the final rinse and an extended drying phase ensure that even plastic parts dry better. There is a slight increase in the energy consumption.

Operating the appliance
Opening the door
To open the door, press the upper middle part of the door. The appliance opens automatically.
If you have activated the child-proof lock, press twice in quick succession at the top of the door in the middle.
Changing the settings
The dishwasher has been preset with certain settings for your convenience. You can change these factory settings.
Here's how to change the settings:
- Switch on ON/OFF switch 1.
-
Press and hold the setup 3 sec. button for 3 seconds. In the display window 9 you will see r:☐... and set.
-
Press the setup 3 sec. button to access the individual settings.
-
Adjust the setting using the buttons - and + 5.
-
Press and hold the setup 3 sec. button for 3 seconds.
The chosen setting has now been stored in your dishwasher.
Tip: If you want to change a number of settings, first make all your changes one after another. Then press the setup 3 sec. button for 3 seconds. All the settings will then be stored in the dishwasher.
AquaSensor \*
* depending on the features of your dishwasher
The Aqua sensor is an optical measuring device (light barrier) which measures the turbidity of the rinsing water.
The AquaSensor is used according to the programme. If the AquaSensor is active, “clean” rinsing water can be transferred to the next rinse bath and water consumption can be reduced by 3–6 litres. If the turbidity is greater, the water is drained and is replaced with fresh water. In the automatic programmes the temperature and running time can also be adjusted to the degree of soiling.
Remaining running time display
When the programme is selected, the remaining programme time is indicated in the display window 9.
*After the programme has started, the remaining running time is displayed on the floor (only for settings Timelight 5:01 and 5:02).
The running time is determined during the programme by the water temperature, the quantity of dishes as well as the degree of soiling and may vary (depending on the selected programme).
* depending on the features of your dishwasher
Sensor setting
In its automatic programmes the appliance uses sensors to optimise their operation. The sensors adjust the strength of the automatic programmes according to the amount and type of soiling. You can choose from three levels of sensitivity for the sensors.
Sensor setting 5E:00: This setting is ideal for a mixed load and heavily soiled utensils, but it also saves energy and water.
Sensor setting SE:01: This setting adjusts the programme strength for the effective removal of food remnants, even if the amount of soiling is low. The energy and water consumption is adjusted accordingly.
Sensor setting SE:02: This setting adjusts the programme strength for difficult conditions of use, for example firmly dried on food remnants. This setting is recommended if you are using biological or eco detergents which contain smaller quantities of active agents. The energy and water consumption is adjusted accordingly.
ExtraDry
The final rinse uses a higher temperature which improves the drying result (be careful if you have delicate tableware). The running time may increase slightly. You can switch the function ExtraDry on d:01 or off d:00.
Auto Power Off (Automatic switch off after end of programme)
To save energy, the dishwasher is switched off 1 minute after the programme ends. You can also change this setting.
Possible settings are:
■ P:00: The dishwasher does not switch off automatically.
■ P:01: The dishwasher switches off after 1 minute.
■ P:02: The dishwasher switches off after 2 hours.

Cleaning and maintenance
A regular inspection and maintenance of your machine will help to prevent faults. This saves time and prevents problems.
Overall status of the dishwasher
*The interior of your dishwasher is predominantly self-cleaning. In order to remove deposits, your dishwasher automatically changes the running of the programme (such as by increasing the cleaning temperature) at certain intervals. This will lead to higher consumption values when running this programme.
*Depending on the features of your dishwasher
If you should find deposits in the interior of the dishwasher in spite of this, remove these deposits as follows:
- Fill the detergent dispenser 30 with detergent.
- Select the programme with the highest temperature.
- Start the programme without dishes.

Warning
Health hazard due to detergents containing chlorine!
Always use chlorine-free detergents.
Notes
■ Only clean the appliance with special detergents/appliance cleaners which are suitable for use with dishwashers.
■ Regularly wipe the door seals using a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid. This will keep the door seal clean and hygienic.
■ Leave the door open slightly if the appliance will not be used for a while. This will prevent an unpleasant odour from developing.
■ Never clean the dishwasher using a steam cleaner. The manufacturer is not liable for any consequential damage.
■ Wipe the front of the dishwasher and the control panel regularly using a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid.
■ Do not use sponges with a rough surface or abrasive detergents. These could scratch the surface.
■ For dishwashers with a stainless steel front, avoid using sponge cloths, or rinse these thoroughly several times before using them for the first time. This will prevent corrosion.
Easyclean Easy \* Clean
Easyclean used in combination with commercially available machine cleaning detergent is a suitable programme for cleaning your dishwasher. Deposits such as grease and limescale can cause your dishwasher to malfunction. In order to avoid such faults and to reduce the development of odours, we recommend cleaning the dishwasher at regular intervals.
* As soon as the Easyclean display lights up in the control panel, or you are advised to do so on the front display, run the Machine cleaning programme Easyclean without loading any tableware. After you have run the Easyclean the display in the control panel will go out.
If your dishwasher does not have a reminder function, follow the instructions for use on the machine cleaning detergents.
Notes
■ Remove any coarse soiling in the interior using a damp cloth.
■ Run the programme without dishes, and in combination with a machine cleaning detergent.
■ Use a special machine cleaning detergent, and not dishwasher detergent.
■ Observe the safety instructions and the instructions for use on the machine cleaning detergent packaging.
■ * After three washing cycles, the display in the control panel will go out automatically, even if you have not run the Easyclean programme.

Connection to hot water is recommended if the hot water can be supplied by energetically favourable means and from a suitable installation, e.g. solar heating system with circulation line. This will save energy and time. The “Hot water” setting allows you to adjust your dishwasher optimally to operate with hot water. It is recommended to have a water temperature (temperature of the incoming water) of at least 40 °C and no more than 60 °C. It is not recommended to connect the appliance to hot water if the water is supplied from an electric boiler.
Here's how to change the hot water setting:
- Switch on ON/OFF switch 1.
- Press and hold the setup 3 sec. button for 3 seconds.
The value r::0... and set will appear in the display window 9.
- Press the setup 3 sec. button repeatedly until the factory setting value R:00 appears in the display window 9.
- Adjust the setting using the buttons + and - 5.
- Press and hold the setup 3 sec. button for 3 seconds.
The chosen setting has now been stored in your dishwasher.
Electrical connection
■ Connect the appliance to an alternating current only, ranging from 220 V to 240 V and 50 Hz or 60 Hz via a correctly installed socket with protective earth conductor. See rating plate for required fusing [32].
■ The socket must be near the appliance and freely accessible following installation.
If the plug is not freely accessible, an allpole disconnector with a contact opening of at least 3 mm must be fitted on the installation side to satisfy the relevant safety instructions.
■ The connection may be modified by technicians only.
■ A power cord extension may be purchased from customer service only.
■ Use only a residual current operated circuit-breaker which features the symbol 📌. Only this extension guarantees compliance with the currently valid regulations.
■ The appliance features a water damage protection system. Please note the system will function only when the power supply is connected.
