BEFORE USING THE DISHWASHER/ CONNECTIONS

1. Removing the packaging and controls:

After unpacking, make sure that the dishwasher is undamaged and that the door closes correctly. If in doubt, contact a qualified technician or your local retailer.

- Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children, as they are potentially dangerous.

2. Water and electrical connections

All water and electrical connections must be carried out by a qualified technician in compliance with the manufacturer's instructions (refer to the enclosed installation booklet) and current local safety regulations.

The appliance must only be used in the household for the prescribed uses.

Do not use the dishwasher if it has been damaged in transit. Consult your local retailer or our After-Sales Service.

(Refer to the separate installation instructions booklet)

3. Water inlet and drain

• Observe any special regulations issued by your local Water Board.
  • Make sure the inlet and drain hoses are kink-free and are not crushed.
• If the hose length is not sufficient, please contact your local dealer or our After-Sales Service.
• The inlet hose must be securely clamped to the water tap to prevent leaks.
• The inlet water temperature varies according to the model installed. Inlet hose marked "25°C Max": maximum temperature 25°C. All other models: maximum temperature 60°C.
• When installing the appliance, make sure the drain water discharges correctly (if necessary, remove the wire gauze from the sink siphon).
• Fix the drain hose to the spigot with a clamp to prevent it from coming off during operation. For appliances with water-stop system only: if the water connections are made correctly, the water-stop system safeguards your home against damage caused by flooding.

4. Electrical connection

• Closely adhere to local Electricity Board regulations.
• Voltage information is shown on the rating plate mounted inside the door on the right hand side.
- The appliance must be earthed as prescribed by law.
- Do not use extension leads or multiple adapters.
- Before carrying out maintenance, disconnect the mains plug.
• The power cable must only be replaced by a qualified technician.

- For Austria: if the apparatus is series connected to a fault current switch, this must be sensitive to the pulsating current.

PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

1. Packing:

The packing box may be fully recycled as confirmed by the recycling symbol.

2. Energy and water saving tips:

• Do not rinse crockery under running water.
- Always fully load the dishwasher before switching on or set the wash programme to half load (if available) if one rack only is loaded.
- If ecological energy sources are available such as solar panel heating, heat pumps or centralised heating systems, the appliance may be connected to the hot water mains up to a maximum temperature of 60°C. Make sure the water inlet hose is of the correct type. Refer to the "Connections" chapter in these user instructions.

3. Disposal:

The appliance is built from reusable materials. If you decide to scrap the dishwasher, it must be disposed of in compliance with local waste disposal laws.

Before scrapping, cut off the power cable so that the appliance cannot be connected to the mains.

4. Child safety

• Children must not be allowed to play with the dishwasher.
- Store the detergent, rinse aid and salt in a dry place out of the reach of children.

5. General recommendations:

• The open dishwasher door can only support the weight of the loaded rack when pulled out. Do not rest objects on the open door or sit or stand on it: the appliance may topple over!
• Do not use solvents inside the dishwasher: risk of explosion!
• Only use detergents, rinse aids and regeneration salts specially recommended for use in domestic dishwashers.
• Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance, switch off the appliance, disconnect the mains plug and turn off the water tap.
• If a fault occurs, switch off the appliance and turn off the water tap.
• If necessary, the power cable may be replaced with another of the same kind obtained from our After-Sales Service. The power cable must only be replaced by a qualified technician.
• On completion of the programme switch off the dishwasher and turn off the water tap. For appliances with water stop system, this operation is not necessary.

6. For appliances with water stop system:

The water inlet hose and plastic casing contain electrical components. Do not therefore cut the hose or immerse the plastic casing in water. If the hose is damaged switch off the appliance immediately.

HOW TO FILL THE SALT CONTAINER

From a water hardness category of 1, before using the dishwasher for the first time, fill the salt container with regeneration salt (to find out the hardness level of water in your area, contact your local Water Board or check the last bill you received). If the water hardness level does not correspond to position 2 on the selector (setting on delivery) or if the water hardness level changes, set the correct water hardness level on the salt container cap or (according to the model) using system 2 or 3.

System 2:

1. Press and hold the programme select button and the On/Off button (the salt level indicator lamp will flash and the indicator lamp / will light up). To change the set value: press and hold the programme select button until the required value is reached.

2. As soon as the required water hardness level is reached, press the On/Off button.

System 3:

1. Press and hold the Start button and simultaneously turn the programme dial one position to the left.
2. Release the Start button (the salt level indicator lamp will flash and setting value 2 will be displayed). To change the set value: press the Start button until the required value is reached.
3. When the required water hardness value is reached and the indicator lamps light up, as shown in the table, turn the programme dial to the "Off" position.

To fill the salt container

Warning: only use regeneration salts for use in domestic dishwashers! Do not fill the salt container with unsuitable substances, such as detergent, as this will cause irreparable damage to the water softener system.

1. Remove the lower rack.
2. Unscrew the cap by turning it counter-clockwise.
3. When first using the dishwasher: fill the salt container to the rim with water.
4. Fill the salt container to the rim with salt (using the filler provided) (when filling for the first time use min. 1.5 kg and max. 2 kg) and stir with a spoon handle.
5. Screw the cap back on by turning it clockwise and make sure it is properly fastened.
6. Fit the lower rack.
7. If regeneration salt is to be added, immediately start a wash programme (rinsing alone is not sufficient) in order to eliminate any residual saline solution straight away and avoid corrosion.

Salt level indicator

The dishwasher is equipped with an electric or visual salt level indicator (depending on the model installed).

Electric indicator

The salt level indicator lamp on the control panel lights up when the salt container is empty.

Visual indicator

The float is clearly visible in the cap window when the salt container is full. The float lowers and is no longer visible when the salt container is empty.

HOW TO FILL THE RINSE AID DISPENSER

The rinse aid facilitates drying and prevents the formation of unsightly spots and streaks on crockery. Before using the dishwasher for the first time, fill the rinse aid dispenser.

Only use rinse aids recommended for use in domestic dishwashers.

1. Press the button to open the cover.
2. Fill the dispenser with rinse aid until the dispenser level indicator becomes dark. If any rinse aid is spilled, it must be removed immediately! This prevents the formation of excessive amounts of foam, which might result in poor washing results.
3. Close the cover.

HOW TO FILL THE DETERGENT DISPENSER

A special compartment is provided for the detergent.

The use of detergent in excess of the recommended dosage may cause pollution. The recommended dosage varies for different brands. If you use detergents in pellet form, follow the manufacturer's directions for use.

"New generation" detergents contain enzymes that give better washing results when Bio programmes are used. However, these programmes are also suitable for all other dishwasher detergents.
