Note: If your dishwasher does not have a water softener (on some models), you can skip this section. Only use rinsing salt that is intended for use in the dishwasher. The salt container is under the basket and should be lled as follows:

• Any other type of salt that is not specically designed for the dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the container. In the case of damage caused by the use of unsuitable salt, the manufacturer will not be liable for any damage caused.

• Fill the device with rinsing salt before starting a run. This avoids spilled salt grains that remain on the oor of the machine for an indenite period, which can lead to corrosion. How to ll in the rinsing salt

Remove the basket and unscrew the cap from the salt container.

Add 1 liter of water to the salt container before the rst wash.

Insert the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and pour in about 130g of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.

The salt warning lamp usually goes out within 2-6 days after lling the salt container.

Immediately after lling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (e.g., the quick program “Rapid”). Otherwise, the lter system, the pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salt water.41

• The salt container should only be relled when the salt warning light on the control panel is lit. Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light will still light up when the salt container is lled. If there is no salt warning light on the control panel (on some models), you can use the cycles the dishwasher has undergone to determine when to rell with salt.

• If you spill some salt, start the quick program (Rapid) to remove the excess salt. Step 1: Call up rinsing salt settings Close the door within 60 seconds of powering on, press and hold the Start/Pause button for 5 seconds. Step 2: Adjust the amount of rinsing salt according to water hardness Press the Start/Pause button to select the correct setting according to your water hardness: H1 > H2 > H3 > H4 > H5 > H6. For the correct water softener setting, refer to the table below in the „Water hardness and rinsing salt quantity“ section. Step 3: Leave rinsing salt settings If you do not make another setting for 5 seconds, the unit will automatically exit the settings and enter standby mode. Water hardness and rinsing salt quantity Water hardness Softener setting Display Salt consumption (g/cycle) °dH

LOADING THE DISHWASHER

• We recommend only using dishes suitable for dishwashers.

• Use only mild detergents.

• For heat-sensitive dishes, we recommend a program with a lower temperature.

• To prevent damage, do not remove glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher immediately after the program has ended. Unsuitable dishes and cutlery Conditionally suitable dishes and cutlery

• Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother of pearl handles

• Plastic items that are not heat resistant

• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant

• Bonded cutlery items or dishes

• Things made of non-stainless steel

• Plastic dishes and utensils

• Certain types of glass, as they can become cloudy over time

• Silver and aluminium parts, as they can change colour over time

• Glazed dishes, as the glaze disappears the more you wash it What you should consider when loading: Remove larger food residues. Soak residues baked in pans beforehand. It is not necessary to pre-rinse the dishes. Place the items in the dishwasher as follows:

• Place cups, glasses, pots and pans in the dishwasher with the inside facing down.

• Place cups, glasses, pots and pans in the dishwasher with the inside facing down.

• Place dishes and other objects in the appliance in such a way that they cannot fall over.

• Place dishes and other objects in the appliance in such a way that they cannot fall over.

• Do not wash small parts in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket.

• Make sure that dishes and cutlery do not overlap or cover each other.

• To prevent glass breakage, glasses should not touch.

• Long and sharp objects (such as knives with long blades) must be placed horizontally in the basket to avoid injury.

• For best results, do not overload the dishwasher.43

Use of the dishware support Small-size dishware will drop through the basket and block the rotation of spray arm. Flip the dishware support inward to support the small-size dishware.44

DETERGENT TYPES Notes on the use of detergent

• Only use detergent specically for dishwashers.

• Never use any other rinse aid and detergents. This will damage the appliance.

• Dishwasher detergent may contain corrosive ingredients. Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children.

• The rinse aid is released during the nal rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes and utensils, which can leave spots and streaks. Concentrated Detergent Due to their chemical composition, dishwashing detergents can be divided into two types:

• Conventional alkaline detergents with corrosive components

• Weak alkaline detergents with natural enzymes Detergent tabs The detergent tabs of different brands dissolve at different speeds in the machine. For this reason, they often can not develop their full cleaning power in short programs. Therefore always use the long programs in conjunction with detergent tabs to ensure that the tab dissolves completely. ADDING DETERGENT Always ll the detergent chamber immediately before starting a program and follow the instructions in the program table. Your dishwasher requires less detergent and rinse aid than standard equipment. Usually one tablespoon of detergent is enough for a normal rinse load. Heavily soiled dishes require more detergent. Put the detergent into the chamber shortly before starting, otherwise it may become damp and not dissolve as well. Fill in detergent here46

Starting the washing process 1 Pull out the basket. 2 Add a suitable detergent. 3 Insert the plug into the socket. 4 Press the Power button to turn on the unit. 5 Connect the inlet hose to the faucet and make sure that the water supply is set to full pressure OR manually add the water to the tank. 6 Select the desired program. When a program is selected, the corresponding indicator will light up. 7 Press the Start/Pause button to start the dishwasher. Note: If you press the Start/Pause button to pause during washing, the dishwasher will beep every minute until you press the Start/Pause button again to start. Changing the program If possible, a running program should be changed directly after the start. Otherwise, the detergent may have already dissolved and run out of the machine with the water. If this is the case, the dishwasher needs to be reset and the detergent dispenser must be relled. To reset the dishwasher, follow the instructions below: 1 Press the Start/Pause button to pause the washing. 2 Press Program button for more than 3 seconds, the machine will be in stand by state. 3 Press the Program button to select the desired program. 4 Press the Start/Pause button, after 10 seconds, the dishwasher will start. Note: If you open the door while the unit is running, the machine will stop automatically. When you close the door again and press the Start/Pause button, the unit will continue to move for 10 seconds.48

Adding dishes later A forgotten dish can be added any time before the detergent dispenser opens. In this case, follow the instructions below: 1 Press the Start/Pause button. 2 Open the door a little to stop the washing. 3 After the spray arms stop working, you can open the door completely. 4 Add forgotten dishes. 5 Close the door. 6 Press the Start/Pause button to start the dishwasher again. After the end of the program At the end of the program, the buzzer will sound for 8 seconds. Press the power button to turn off the power. Turn off the tap and open the dishwasher door. Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid scalding. The dishes are still very hot after drying and can easily break. They will also dry better.

1. Switch off the dishwasher:

• Press the Power button.

• Turn off the water tap!

2. Open the door carefully:

• Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should be allowed to cool down around 15 minutes before removing from the appliance.

• Open the dishwasher’s door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes. In this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.

3. Unloading the dishwasher

• It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside. CAUTION Risk of scalding! Never open the door during the washing process, as the hot water may scald you.49

Drain water from the water tank

• In standby mode, press and hold the Program and Extra Drying buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to drain the water tank.

Note: Never use the dishwasher without lters! Make sure the lter is properly assembled. The performance may be affected and dishes and utensils could become damaged. Cleaning the lter system The lter system removes dirt and food residues, allowing the clean water to be re- circulated for cleaning. In order for the device to perform at its best you should clean the lters once a week. We recommend removing coarse dirt and food residues after each wash, by rinsing the lter and cup under running water. To remove the lter assembly, pull the cup handle in the upward direction. Fine lter: Filters out dirt and residues and prevents them from getting back onto the dishes during the washing process. Main lter: Leftovers and dirt particles are crushed by a special nozzle on the spray arm and discharged through the drain. Step 1: Unscrew the complete lter set counterclockwise. Step 2: Lift ne lter (B) up from main lter (A). When you have cleaned the lters, replace them in reverse order.50

Note: Do not tap the lters when cleaning. Otherwise you may bend them, which would have a negative impact on the performance of the dishwasher. Cleaning the dishwasher

• Clean the control panel with a slightly damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly.

• Maintain the housing with a suitable polishing wax.

• Do not use sharp objects, scouring pads, aggressive detergents, scouring agents or paper towels to protect the stainless steel surface from scratches and stains.

• Clean the edge of the door with a warm, damp cloth. To prevent water from entering the locking mechanism or electrical components, do not use spray cleaners. How to protect the device from frost damage In winter, take the following precautions to protect the machine against frost. Perform the following steps after every program run: 1 Pull the plug out of the socket. 2 Close the water supply and remove the inlet hose from the inlet valve. 3 Drain the water from the hose and valve into a vessel. 4 Reattach the inlet hose to the inlet valve. 5 Remove the lter from the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up excess water. Cleaning the spray arms The spray arms can be easily removed for regular cleaning of the nozzles to avoid clogging. 1 Grasp the center of the spray arm and pull it up to remove it. 2 Wash the spray arms under running water and carefully reinsert them. Check that the spray arms are seated correctly and make sure that their rotation is not obstructed in any way.51

TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Possible Causes Solution Dishwasher does not start. Fuse blown, or the circuit break tripped. Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. Remove any other appliances sharing the same circuit with the dishwasher. No power. Make sure the dishwasher is turned on and the door is closed securely. Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into the wall socket Water inow abnormal or water pressure is too low. Check that the water supply is connected properly and the water is turned on. Door of dishwasher not properly closed. Make sure to close the door properly and latch it. Water not pumped form dishwasher Twisted or trapped drain hose. Check the drain hose. Filter clogged. Check the lters. Kitchen sink clogged. Check the kitchen sink to make sure it is draining well. If the problem is the kitchen sink that is not draining, you may need a plumber rather than a serviceman for dishwashers. Stained tub interior Detergent with colourant may have been used. Make sure that the detergent has no colourant.52

Problem Possible Causes Solution Suds in the tub Wrong detergent. Use only the dedicated dishwasher detergent to avoid suds. If suds exist in the washer. Open the door for 20-30 minutes to allow the foam to evaporate. If the foam still exists in the liner. Add 1.5litre of water to the liner, close the dishwasher door and run a forced drain to drain it with the water. Repeat above operation until the foam is cleared. Spilled rinse-aid. Always wipe up rinse-aid spills immediately. White lm on inside surface Hard water minerals. To clean the interior, use a damp sponge with dishwasher detergent and wear rubber gloves. Never use any other cleaner than dishwasher detergent otherwise, it may cause foaming or suds. There are rust stains on cutlery. The affected items are not corrosion resistant. Avoid washing items that are not corrosion resistant in the dishwasher. A program was not run after dishwasher salt was added. Traces of salt have gotten into the wash cycle. Always run a wash program without any crockery after adding salt. The lid of the softer is loose. Check the softener lid is secure. Knocking noise in the dishwasher A spray arm is knocking against an item in a basket Interrupt the program and rearrange the items which are obstructing the spray arm. Rattling noise in the dishwasher Items of crockery are loose in the dishwasher. Interrupt the program and rearrange the items of crockery.53

Problem Possible Causes Solution Knocking noise in the water pipes This may be caused by on-site installation or the cross-section of the piping. This has no inuence on the dishwasher function. If in doubt, contact a qualied plumber. The dishes are not clean. The dishes were not loaded correctly. Follow the instructions for loading the dishwasher. Use more detergent, or change our detergent. Select the Intensive program. Not enough detergent was dispensed Use more detergent, or change your detergent. Items are blocking the movement of the spray arms. Rearrange the items so that the spray can rotate freely. The lter combination is not clean or is not correctly tted in the base of washcabinet. This may cause the spray arm jets to get blocked. Clean and/or t the lter correctly. Clean the spray arm jets. Cloudiness on glassware. Combination of soft water and too much detergent. Use less detergent if you have soft water and select a shorter cycle to wash the glassware and to get them clean. White spots appear on dishes and glasses. Hard water can cause limescale deposits. Add more detergent. Black or grey marks on dishes Aluminium utensils have rubbed against dishes Use a mild abrasive cleaner to eliminate those marks. Detergent left in dispenser Dishes block detergent dispenser Re-loading the dishes properly.54

Problem Possible Causes Solution The dishes are not drying. Improper loading Load the dishwasher as suggested in the directions. Dishes are removed too soon. Do not empty your dishwasher immediately after washing. Open the door slightly so that the steam can come out. Take out the dishes until the inside temperature is safe to touch. Unload the lower basket rst to prevent the dropping water from the upper basket. Wrong program has been selected. With a short program, the washing temperature is lower, decreasing cleaning performance. Choose a program with a long washing time. Use of cutlery with a low- quality coating. Cutlery or dishes of this type are not suitable for washing in the dishwasher.55
