READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual. Read and understand all instructions before using the dishwasher.

This dishwasher is intended for use up to a maximum altitude of 13,000 ft (4,000 meters) above sea level.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or serious injury, observe the following:

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH

Misuse of the dishwasher can result in serious injury or death. Do not use the dishwasher in any way not covered in this manual or for any purpose other than those explained in the following pages.

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY

Severe injury and/or product damage could result from the use of unauthorized service technicians or non-original replacement parts. All repairs must be performed by an authorized service technician using only original equipment factory replacement parts.

WARNING

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE

Electrical shock or fire could result if the electrical supply for the dishwasher covered in this manual is incorrectly installed or if the dishwasher has been improperly grounded. Do not use the dishwasher covered in this manual unless you are certain the electrical supply has been correctly installed and the dishwasher has been properly grounded.

WARNING

HEALTH HAZARD

Never use harsh chemicals to clean your dishwasher. Some bleach-based products can damage your dishwasher and may present health hazards!

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded to a metal, permanent wiring system or an equipment grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher. See the Installation Instructions included with this dishwasher for more information on electrical requirements.

WARNING

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Safe Operation

Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dishware and kitchenware rated as dishwasher safe.

Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.

CAUTION

When loading items to be washed:

• Locate sharp items so they are not likely to damage the door seal.
• Load knives and other sharp utensils with their HANDLES UP to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
• Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations.
• Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in place.
• Do not tamper with or override controls and interlocks.

Do not abuse, sit or stand on the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY

To avoid risk of injury, always use caution when opening the door during or following a wash cycle as hot water or steam may escape. Do not fully open the door until water noises have stopped and steam has subsided.

To reduce risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the responsibility of the parents/legal guardians to ensure the children are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.

NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.

Proper Care and Maintenance

WARNING

RISK OF EXPLOSION

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive. Before using a dishwasher that is connected to a hot water system that has been unused for two weeks or longer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is explosive, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher for service or discarding.

To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.

Note: To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow water to remain in your dishwasher systems through extended periods of freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures can damage the water fill valve and potentially other components of your dishwasher.

NOTICE: It is highly recommended for the end user to become familiar with the procedure to shut off the incoming water supply and the procedure to shut off the incoming power supply. See the Installation Instructions or contact your installer for more information.

State of California Proposition 65 Warning:

Water softening system / special salt

To ensure good rinsing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. water which is low in lime, otherwise limescale will be deposited on the utensils and interior container. Tap water above 7^ dH (1.2 mmol/l) must be softened. The water is softened with special salt (regeneration salt) in the water softening system of the dishwasher. The setting and therefore the required amount of salt depends on the degree of hardness of your tap water (see following water hardness table).

Adjusting the water softening system

The amount of salt dispensed can be set from 0 to 62°E. Salt is not required at the set value 0-8.

Set the softening system as follows:

1. Ask your local water utility company for the water hardness value of the tap water.
2. Required setting can be found in the water hardness table.
3. Open the door.

4. Switch on ON/OFF switch 1.

5. Press Info button i 3 for 3 seconds until the following text is indicated on the display window at the top 4:

2. Make the selection with setting buttons + - 7.
3. Press and hold the Info button i 3 for 3 seconds. The chosen setting has now been stored.

Using special salt

As soon as the low salt indicator 6 lights up on the digital display, salt should be topped off. Refilling the salt dispenser should be done before switching on the appliance. This ensures that extra salt water is washed out and will not corrode the rinsing tank.

NOTICE: Detergent will destroy the water softening system! Never pour detergent into the salt dispenser.

Top off the salt as follows:

1. Undo the screw plug on the dispenser 28.
2. Fill the dispenser with water (required only when switching on the appliance for the first time).
3. Add salt as illustrated (do not use table salt or tablets).
   The water is displaced and runs out.

For more information about buying dishwasher salt, please contact Customer Service 1-800-944-2904.

Using detergents with salt component

If combined detergents with a salt component are used, special salt can usually be omitted up to a water hardness of 21^ dH ( 37^ fH, 26^ Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l). If the water hardness is over 21^ dH, salt must be used.

Switching off low salt indicator / water softening system

If the use of combined detergents with a salt component impairs the low salt indicator 6 on the control panel or the text on the display window at the top 4 (enough salt for x rinse cycles), the displays can be switched off. Proceed as described under “Setting water softening system” and set the value to 0-8. The water softening system and salt refill indicator are now switched off.

Rinse Aid

As soon as the low rinse aid indicator 5 lights up on the control panel, rinse aid should be topped off. The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses. Use only rinse aid which the manufacturer designates as safe to use in domestic dishwashers. Combined detergents with rinse aid component may be used with soft to moderately hard water only (0-2 bands on test strip or up to an °E value of 20). For moderately hard to hard water (3 to 4 bands on test strip or °E value of 21 or higher), rinse aid must be used.

Adding rinse aid

NOTICE: To avoid oversuding or clogging, do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser [32]. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

1. Open the rinse aid dispenser 32 by pressing on the latch of the lid and pulling it open.

1. Add liquid rinse aid to the dispenser 32 until it is full. Do not overfill. Avoid spilling into air vent hole.

Illustration of a hand pouring liquid into a device with a lid, showing internal components and a magnified view (no text or symbols)

1. Close the lid. Lid must be fully closed until it clicks in order to seal.
2. Wipe up any excess rinse aid that may have puddled when the dispenser reservoir is full.

This prevents excessive frothing during the next wash cycle. The indicator light will go out a few moments after the dishwasher door is shut.

Tip: For easier pouring, remove lid from the rinse aid bottle.

NOTICE: Do not fill the rinse aid dispenser 32 with detergent. Doing so will damage the dishwasher.

Setting the amount of rinse aid used

The amount of rinse aid to be dispensed can be set from 0 to 6. Set the amount of rinse aid to be dispensed to 5 to obtain a very good drying result. 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.

Set the amount of rinse aid as follows:

1. Open the door.
2. Press on ON/OFF button 1.
3. Press Info button i 3 for 3 seconds until the following text is indicated on the display window at the top 4:

Scroll with <>

Set with - +

Leave with setup 3 sec.

1. Keep pressing button > 8 until the rinse aid dispenser is indicated on the display window at the top 4.
2. Make the selection with setting buttons + - 7.
3. Press and hold the Info button i 3 for 3 seconds. The chosen setting has now been stored.

Note: Do not change the amount of rinse aid unless there are streaks (select lower setting) or water stains (select higher setting) visible on the utensils.

Switching off rinse aid refill indicator

If the use of combined detergents with a rinse aid component impairs the low rinse aid indicator 5 on the control panel (enough rinse aid for x rinse cycles), the displays can be switched off.

Proceed as described under "Setting amount of rinse aid" and select setting 0.

NOTICE: Using no rinse aid or setting the dispenser to 0 may result in longer cycle times consuming more energy and water. The higher temperatures can damage fine china or glassware.

Loading the Dishwasher

Detergent

Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing detergent or detergent tabs.

NOTICE: To avoid damage to dishwasher or dishware:

• Do not use hand dishwashing products in your dishwasher.
• Do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. Using too much detergent with soft water may cause etching in glassware and fine china.
• To best protect glassware, use a wash cycle with low temperatures or a specific glass-care cycle (depending on the model) and use a detergent that includes etch protection.

This dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to 1 tablespoon (15 ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml). 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent will completely fill the detergent dispenser.

Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15 ml of detergent. Increase the amount if necessary to the least amount required to get your kitchenware clean.

Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the amount of detergent recommended in the following table.

Wash Cycle Hard Water/Heavy Soil		MediumWater/MediumSoil	Soft Water/Little Soil
Pots & Pans 3 tbsp(45 ml)		3 tbsp(45 ml)	1.75-3 tbsp(25 - 45 ml)

Rinse Use this cycle if you need to rinse dishes to avoid odors. Place unrinsed dishes inside the dish-washer and select the Rinse cycle. Uses less water than hand rinsing and very low energy.		Delay

*The cycle is sanitized when Sanitize option is used.

Note: The Energy Guide label was based on the Normal soil sensing cycle as follows: The unit was tested without any rinse aid (liquid) in the rinse aid dispenser 32. A single dose of detergent was inserted into the detergent dispenser 33, with no detergent being used in the prewash. The unit was not subjected to truncated testing per the definitions in the test procedure. We recommend that dish loads such as the one in the energy certification test have the rack position set in the highest position.

Dishwasher Cycle Options

PowerBoost®

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

Save Time

Save Time is an option that allows saving time without sacrificing wash and dry performance. Selecting this option ensures the same final temperatures as the underlying cycle, while heating up the dishes more quickly. Selecting this option also increases energy consumption while reducing cycle time.

Half Load

Can reduce water consumption when washing small, lightly soiled loads that fill approximately half or less of the dishwasher's capacity.

Sanitize

Increases the temperatures and retains them for an extra long time to obtain a defined disinfecting performance. Continuous use of this function increases the hygiene status. This additional option is ideal for cleaning items such as chopping boards and baby bottles.

"Sanitized" will appear in the display window when sanitation requirements are met. Using the Sanitize option may also improve drying. There is a slight increase in energy consumption.

StarDry™

Star Dry with Zeolite is an exclusive Thermador drying solution, providing the ultimate results for your dishware needs.

Wash Cycle Information

To save energy, this dishwasher has EcoSense where the sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust the cycle length, temperature and water changes based on the amount of food soil and the incoming water temperature. The “Smart Control” makes decisions that

can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust intermittently. Wash cycle times are based on 120^ F ( 49^ C) water supply. If your household water supply is different than 120^ F ( 49^ C), your dishwasher's cycle times may be impacted.

Operating the Dishwasher

Note: With hidden controls, the door must be opened before changing settings and closed after changing settings.

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY

To avoid risk of injury, always use caution when opening the door during or following a wash cycle as hot water or steam may escape. Do not fully open the door until water noises have stopped and steam has subsided.

To reduce risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the responsibility of the parents/legal guardians to ensure the children are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.

Protection against unintentional operation

Your dishwasher is equipped with a function that helps to prevent unintentional operation (e.g. by children).

After starting the dishwasher, the dishwasher door has to be closed within 4 seconds, otherwise the operation will be paused. There will be a signal on the control panel advising you to press the Start button again and close the door.

This function will be activated when:

• pressing Start to begin a wash cycle
• setting Delay time and pressing Start
• opening the door while Delay time is active
• opening the door during a wash cycle.

Note: This function cannot be deactivated.

Operating the touch buttons

Buttons are sensitive and should be touched gently. Avoid any grease or food particles resting on the buttons as they could activate the dishwasher.

Wiping and cleaning can also activate the dishwasher. For best results, use bare, clean hands when touching the buttons.

To clean the touch buttons wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

Changing the settings

The dishwasher has been preset with certain settings for your convenience. You can change these factory settings.

Change the setting as follows:

1. Open the door.
2. Switch on On/Off button 1.
3. Press Info button 3 for 3 seconds until the following text is indicated in the digital display 4:

Scroll with <>

Set with - +

Leave with Setup 3 sec.

1. Keep pressing button > 8 until the required setting is indicated in the display window at the top 4.
2. Make the selection with setting buttons + -7.
3. Press and hold the Info button 3 for 3 seconds. The chosen setting has now been stored.

Tip: If you change several settings, first make all changes in succession. Now press the Info button 3 for 3 seconds. This saves all set values in the appliance.

AquaSensor

The AquaSensor is an optical measuring device which measures the cleanliness of the rinse water.

The AquaSensor is used according to the wash cycle. If the AquaSensor is active, “clean” rinse water can be transferred to the next rinse and water consumption can be reduced by 0.8–1-5 gal (3–6 liters). If the rinse water is not yet clear, the water is drained and is replaced with fresh water. In the automatic wash cycles the temperature and running time can also be adjusted to the degree of soiling.

Time display

The wash cycle time is determined during the wash cycle by the water temperature, the amount of dishes, as well as the degree of soiling and may vary (depending on the selected wash cycle). You can change the time display into time of day or hours/minutes so that the remaining cycle time of the wash cycle appears in the display window “Finish at” (for example 15:20 o'clock) or “Finish in” (for example 3:25 hours).

Sensor setting

The wash cycle sequence is optimized in Auto wash cycles with the aid of sensors. The sensors adjust the wash cycle strength of Auto wash cycles depending on the amount and type of soiling. You can adjust the sensitivity of the sensors in 3 stages.

Standard: This setting is recommend for daily regular or typical use. This is the most energy efficient setting.

Sensitive: This setting adjusts the wash cycle strength for the effective removal of food remnants, even if the amount of soiling is low. The energy and water consumption is increased accordingly.

Very sensitive: This setting adjusts the wash cycle strength for difficult conditions of use, for example firmly dried on food remnants. This setting is recommended if using biological or eco detergents which contain lower amounts of active agents. The energy and water consumption is increased accordingly.

Extra Dry

The final rinse uses a higher temperature which improves the drying result. The cycle time may increase slightly. (Caution if utensils are delicate!) You can switch the Extra Dry function on or off. There is a slight increase in energy consumption.

Eco forecast

When Eco forecast is activated, the average water and energy consumption of the selected wash cycle is briefly displayed in the digital display 4.

Auto power off

This setting determines the length of time the control panel stays illuminated after the cycle is complete. To save energy, the recommended setting is “after one minute”.

Possible settings are:

• off: The appliance does not switch off automatically.
  • After one minute: The appliance switches off after 1 minute. This is the most energy efficient setting.
  • After two hours: The appliance switches off after 2 hours.

Tone volume

The end of the wash cycle is indicated by a buzzer. You can also change this setting.

Button volume

When you are operating the dishwasher, a signal sounds whenever a button is pressed. You can control the volume of the signal. If you do not like the button volume, you can switch it off.

C Micro Filter

Directs the smallest of particles to the household plumbing drain.

Cleaning intervals

The filter system [29] is designed to minimize maintenance while providing premium cleaning performance and minimum energy consumption. Depending on use habits and water hardness, the filter system will require some maintenance to sustain premium cleaning performance.

Your filter system may need to be cleaned when:

• You notice food soils remaining on the filter system or objects trapped in the Large Object Trap.
• A drop in cleaning performance or a gritty film forms on the dishware.

When washing normally attached food soils that have been scraped before loading, in a household that runs the dishwasher every other day, your filter should be cleaned:

Cleaning interval Usage

3-6 times a year light to average use

8-12 times a year heavy use

Note: Clean the filter after washing loads with large amounts of food soils or loads with a heavy starch content to maintain optimal performance.

To check or clean the filter system:

1. After each wash cycle check the filters for residue.
2. Unscrew the Large Object Trap as illustrated and remove the entire filter system.

1. Rinse the filters under running water and use a soft brush to clean.

Note: do not use abrasive brushes or steel wool, etc., as they may damage the filter.

1. Reinstall the filter system in reverse sequence and lock into place by screwing the Large Object Trap until the marking arrows align.

Spray arms

Limescale and contaminants in the rinsing water may block nozzles and bearings on the spray arms 23 and 27.

1. Check outlet nozzles on the spray arms for blockages.
2. Unscrew the upper spray arm 23 (1) and remove downwards (2).
3. Remove the lower spray arm 27 upwards.

	Rinse aid dispenser [32] is empty.	Add rinse aid.
	Dishwasher connected to cold water supply.	Verify dishwasher is connected to hot water supply plumbing.
	Note: : Check the typical wash cycle length.
Detergent residue.	Detergent dispenser cover [33] blocked by dishes and therefore does not open fully.	Dishes must not be placed above the detergent tab tray [24]. These may block the lid of the detergent dispenser and prevent it from opening fully.Do not place dishes or fragrance dispenser in the detergent tab tray.
	Detergent dispenser cover [33] blocked by the detergent tab.	Detergent tab must be inserted flat and not upright.
	Detergent tab used in the quick or short wash cycle.	Dissolving time of detergent tab too long for a quick or short wash cycle.

Fault Cause Remedial action

Tea or lipstick residue on the dishes.	Too low rinsing temperature. Select wash cycle with higher washing temperature.
	Too little or unsuitable detergent. Use suitable detergent at correct dosage.
	Dishes precleaned too intensely; sensors therefore decide on weak wash cycle sequence. Stubborn soiling cannot be completely removed.	Do not prerinse dishes. Remove only large food soils.Increase sensitivity of the sensors.Recommended wash cycle "Regular".
Colored (blue, yellow, brown), film in the dishwasher or on stainless steel cutlery/cookware.	Film from mixture of food and mineral deposits.	Can be partly removed with dishwasher cleaner or by mechanical cleaning.
	Film formed by oxidation of silver or aluminum cookware.	Can be partly removed with dishwasher cleaner or by mechanical cleaning.
Colored (yellow, orange, brown), easily removable film inside the appliance (mainly in the floor area).	Soapy film from mixture of food and hard water.	Use water softener* - refill with salt or increase setting where necessary. Use dishwasher detergent instead of a 3 in 1 or Eco detergent.
Plastic parts stained or discolored.	Plastic parts inside the appliance may become discolored during the service life of the dishwasher.	Discoloration is normal and will not impair the function of the dishwasher.
	Too low rinsing temperature. Select wash cycle with higher washing temperature.
	Dishes precleaned too intensely; sensors therefore decide on weak wash cycle sequence. Stubborn soiling cannot be completely removed.	Do not prerinse dishes. Remove only large food soils.Increase sensitivity of the sensors.Recommended wash cycle "Regular".

Statement of Limited Product Warranty

What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to:

The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances (Thermador ^® ) in this Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the Thermador appliance (“Product”) sold to you, the first using purchaser, provided that the Product was purchased:

• for your normal, household (non-commercial) use, and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes;
• new at retail (not a display, “as is”, or previously returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use; and
• within the United States or Canada, and has at all times remained within the country of original purchase. The warranties stated herein apply only to the first purchaser of the Product and are not transferable.

Thermador reserves the right to request proof of purchase at the time any warranty claim is submitted to confirm that the Product falls within the scope of this limited product warranty.

Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for Thermador to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.

How Long the Warranty Lasts

Thermador warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of seven hundred thirty (730) days (2 years) from the date of purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever.

This Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of stainless steel, paint/porcelain blemishes, chip, dents, or other damage to the finish of the Product), for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of purchase or closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes slight color variations due to inherent differences in painted and porcelain parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor, "As Is", or "B" stock appliances.

Extended Limited Warranty

BSH also provides these additional limited warranties:

• 5 year limited warranty on electronics: BSH will repair or replace any BSH microprocessor or printed circuit board if it proves to be defective in materials or workmanship (excludes labor charges).
• 5 year limited warranty on dish racks: BSH will replace the upper or lower dish rack (excluding rack components), if the rack proves defective in materials or workmanship (excludes labor charges).

Repair/Replace as Your Exclusive Remedy

During this warranty period, Thermador or one of its authorized service providers will repair your Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect in materials or workmanship. If a reasonable number attempts to repair the Product have been made without success, then Thermador will replace your Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in Thermador's sole discretion, for an additional charge). All removed parts and components shall become the property of Thermador at its sole option.

Thermador's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a Thermador-authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and property damage concerns, Thermador highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use an unauthorized servicer; Thermador will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a non-authorized servicer. If you choose to have someone other than an authorized service provider work on your Product, THIS

WARRANTY WILL AUTOMATICALLY BECOME NULL AND VOID. Authorized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially trained on Thermador products, and who possess, in Thermador's opinion, a superior reputation for customer service and technical ability (note that they are independent entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of Thermador).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Thermador will not incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you request, Thermador would still pay for labor and

parts and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the service company, assuming they agree to make the service call.
