Frequently Asked Questions - BDI652 BAUMATIC

How do I install the Baumatic BDI652 dishwasher?

Installation requires connection to a water supply, drainage, and power outlet. The unit fits under a countertop with a height of 81.5 cm. Use the provided intake hose and drain hose. Ensure the dishwasher is level using the adjustable feet. For detailed steps, refer to the user manual.

What should I do if the dishwasher doesn't start?

Check if the door is closed securely, the power cord is plugged in, and the circuit breaker is on. Also ensure the water supply valve is open. If the problem persists, try resetting by turning the power off for 1 minute.

How often should I clean the filters?

Clean the filters every 2-3 weeks to maintain performance. Remove the lower basket, twist the coarse filter, and rinse all filters under running water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.

Can I use regular dish soap instead of dishwasher detergent?

No, regular dish soap creates excessive suds and may damage the appliance. Always use a dishwasher-specific detergent in powder, gel, or tablet form.

Why are dishes not drying properly?

Check if rinse aid is full and the selected program includes a drying phase. Ensure dishes are not overcrowded and that the final rinse temperature is high enough. Using a rinse aid improves drying.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the 'Child Lock' button for 3 seconds until the indicator lights up. To deactivate, repeat the same step. This prevents unintended program changes.

What does the 'half load' function do?

The half load function allows you to wash only the upper or lower basket, saving water and energy. Select the function before starting the cycle. Load only the chosen basket.

How can I reduce energy consumption?

Use the Eco program for normal soiled dishes, run full loads, scrape food off rather than rinsing, and use the delay start to run during off-peak hours.

Why is the dishwasher leaking water?

Check the door gasket for cracks or debris, ensure the drain hose is not kinked, and verify the water inlet connection is tight. Also inspect the filters for blockages that may cause overflow.

Replacements parts: where can I find them?

Authorized spare parts include racks, filters, spray arms, hoses, and dispensers. Contact Baumatic customer service or check the manual for part numbers. Some parts are available online.

Using your dishwasher

Before first use

○ Install the appliance as per the installation instructions contained within this booklet.
o Fill the water softener with 1 litre of tap water and then fill with specialist dishwasher salt. After this you should set the water softener level.
- Fill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid dosage.

Filling with dishwasher salt

IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of salt is used in the appliance (in particular table salt), it will damage the water softener.

- Ideally you should fill the water softener with salt, just before you are about to run a wash program. This will help to clear any salt that may have overflowed from the water softener during the salt filling process.

- Open the door of the dishwasher and then remove the lower basket. The basket should be empty when you remove it.

- Turn the water softener cap anticlockwise and remove it.

- Pour 1 litre of water into the water softener.

IMPORTANT: It is only necessary to do this when you fill the container with salt for the first time.

Line drawing of a hand holding a tool over an open mechanical device (no text or symbols)

Pour salt into the water softener, using the funnel that is supplied with the appliance. You should add approximately 1.2 kg of salt into the water softener.

- It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of the water softener, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does not mean that the water softener is filled with the correct amount of salt.

o Refit and fully tighten the water softener cap.

- The salt required warning light will go out approximately 2-6 hours after you have filled the water softener with salt. When the salt indicator neon lights on the control panel, then you should follow the filling with dishwasher salt procedure again.

- IMPORTANT: You do not need to pour 1 litre of water into the container when you subsequently fill the water softener with salt.

Setting the water softener level

It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to the table below).

Water hardness		Selector position	Grams of salt used per cycle	Approximate number of cycle per 1.2kg of salt
Clarke degrees	°TH french degrees
0 - 14	0 - 18	N/A	0	N/A
14 - 36	18 - 44	Minus symbol	20	60
36 - 71	44 - 89	Middle	40	30
71	89	Plus symbol	60	20

To alter the amount of salt that is released by the water softener, you should:-

- Remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap from the water softener.

Simple circular diagram with a central arrow and two curved arrows, no text or symbols present.

○ Locate the ring with an arrow on it that is located on the water softener. (See figure opposite).

- When you first receive your appliance, the arrow will be pointing to the minus symbol. Using the water hardness chart, you should turn the arrow to the setting that is appropriate for your water hardness.

- The "middle" selector position is halfway between the minus and plus symbols.

- IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets and live in a medium or hard water area, then you should still fill the water softener with salt. The water softener arrow should be turned to the minus setting.

Filling with rinse aid

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes. These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on items after the wash program has completed.

• Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid.
• The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door, next to the detergent dispenser.

Technical line drawing of a digital camera with adjustment knobs and a dial (no text or symbols)

To access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole. Then slowly pour in liquid rinse aid, the rinse aid dispenser will hold approximately 140 ml of rinse aid.

• You should continue to fill with rinse aid, until the level indicator turns completely black.
• Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, as this could cause oversudsing when a wash program is selected. Wipe away any rinse aid excess or spillages with a damp cloth.
• Replace the cap and turn it clockwise until it locks into position.
• You should refill the rinse aid dispenser when the rinse aid indicator neon lights on the control panel.
• IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets then you should still fill the rinse aid dispenser.

Setting the rinse aid level

The amount of rinse aid that the dishwasher requires also depends on the hardness of your water. You should experiment with the rinse aid setting, until you find a level that gives the best results.

• On the first wash cycle, we would recommend that the rinse aid level is set to number 2.
• If you get water spots and poor drying performance, then you should turn the arrow anticlockwise and increase the setting to the next number.

- You should continue to adjust the rinse aid level upwards until you get no water spots.

- If you get cloudiness or streaking on your dishes, the rinse aid level is set too high and it is causing foaming during the wash cycle. Turn the arrow clockwise and lower the setting to the next number.

Filling with dishwasher detergent

The detergent dispenser must be refilled at the start of each wash cycle (apart from the Rinse wash program).

- Open the lid that closes over the detergent dispenser and place the detergent inside of the dispenser.

- The section marked 1 in the diagram is for the main wash cycle detergent. Only one detergent tablet should be placed in the dispenser at any one time. If you are using detergent powder or liquid, you should follow the detergent manufacturer's recommendations.

- The section marked 2 in the diagram can have separate detergent placed in it for any wash cycle that has a pre-wash element to it, however this is optional. This must be a liquid or powder detergent, not another detergent tablet.

- Shut the detergent dispenser lid and position the clip on the outer edge, so that it holds the lid shut.

- At the beginning of a wash cycle the clip will open and the tablet/powder/liquid will enter the dishwasher.

Loading the upper basket

The upper basket is most suited to washing delicate and light dishware, such as glasses, coffee & tea cups, saucers, plates, bowls and shallow pans (that are not heavily soiled).

1. Cups
2. Small serving bowl
3. Large serving bowl
4. Glasses
5. Saucers
6. Dish
7. Dessert dishes

- You should position the dishes and cookware in such a way that they are not moved by the spray of water during the wash cycle.

- Use the diagram above as a guide to the most appropriate way to load the upper basket.

Adjusting the upper basket

Your dishwasher has an adjustable upper basket which you can alter to the most suitable position for the items you are going to wash in the upper basket.

Diagram of a multi-layered mechanical or structural assembly with directional arrows indicating flow or movement (no text or symbols present)

• The height of the upper basket can be adjusted by removing the upper basket from the guide supports.
  ○ IMPORTANT: The upper basket must be empty when you are removing it from the guide supports.

Maximum height of dishes (upper basket)		Maximum height of dishes (lower basket)
With upper basket raised	19 cm 30 cm
With upper basket lowered	24 cm 25 cm

IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to make sure that the spray arms can move freely when items have been loaded into the baskets.

IMPORTANT: Care should be taken when placing long stemmed glassware, such as champagne glasses in the upper basket. If they are not positioned correctly, then there is a risk that they may topple over when the upper basket is pushed in our pulled out.

Loading the lower basket

The lower basket is most suited to washing larger and more heavily soiled items, such as saucepans, saucepan lids and serving dishes. You can also load bowls and a variety of plates into the lower basket.

1. Dessert dishes
2. Serving plate
3. Dinner plates
4. Side plates

5. Cutlery basket

6. Saucepans and serving bowls must always be placed with their bases upwards.

7. Deep saucepans should be slanted, to allow water to run off.
8. The bottom rack has prongs at the rear of the basket that can be folded downwards, to allow for easier loading of larger saucepans and serving bowls.

The cutlery basket

Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket. The cutlery basket should then be placed in the appropriate position in the lower basket.

1. Forks

2. Soup spoons

3. Dessert spoons

4. Teaspoons

5. Knives

6. Serving spoon

7. Gravy ladle

8. Serving fork

- For the best washing performance, cutlery should be placed through the slots in the top of the cutlery basket.

IMPORTANT: Do not allow items of cutlery to fall through the bottom of the cutlery basket, as this may cause damage to the spray arm and/or the cutlery. If the bottom of the basket begins to deteriorate and allows items to fall through, you should replace the cutlery basket.

Loading dishes and cutlery

Household cloths, sponges or any other object that may absorb water SHOULD NOT be washed in a dishwasher.

- Remove leftovers and soften the remnants of burnt food in pans, prior to loading dishes in the appliance.

Once the dishwasher has been loaded, check that the spray arms can move freely. If the spray arm comes into contact with any item, then you should rearrange the wash load.

o Cups, glasses, pans etc should all be loaded with their bases upwards, so that water does not collect inside of them.

- Cutlery and dishes should not cover each other; otherwise you may get poor wash results.

• Do not allow glasses to touch inside the dishwasher, otherwise damage may occur.
  o Small objects can be placed inside of the cutlery basket.

The following items are NOT suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:-

• Cutlery with a handle of mother-of-pearl, wood, horn or china.
• Plastic items that are not resistant to heat.
• Cutlery that consists of glued parts that are not resistant to heat.
• Cutlery items or crockery that are bonded.
• Copper or pewter items.
• Lead crystal glass.
• Wooden platters
• Synthetic fibre items.

The following items are not always suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:-

• Stoneware should only be washed if the manufacturer of the item has marked it as dishwasher safe.
• Plastic items (such as lunchboxes) should only be washed if the manufacturer has marked it as dishwasher safe.
• Glazed crockery may fade with repeated washing inside of a dishwasher.
• Items made of silverware or aluminium can discolour when washed inside a dishwasher.
• Any food residue should be removed from silver items immediately, as this can also result in discolouration.
  o Certain types of glass may become dull or cloudy after a large number of washes.

Cleaning and maintenance

IMPORTANT: The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process.

The filter system

Your appliance is fitted with three levels of filtering; these are located in the base of the dishwasher for ease of access.

1) Main filter
2) Coarse filter
3) Fine filter

Main filter-

Food and soil particles are trapped by this filter and pulverised by a special jet on the lower spray arm. This debris is then washed down the drain.

Coarse filter-

Larger items such as pieces of bone or glass, which could clog the drain, are trapped in this filter.

Fine filter-

This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a wash cycle.

IMPORTANT: Whilst the filtering system is efficient, your dishwasher is not a waste disposal unit. All items being washed inside of the dishwasher should have food scraps removed from them before being loaded into the appliance.

Cleaning the filters

For best performance and results, the entire filter assembly should be thoroughly cleaned regularly (ideally after each wash cycle).
