Safety instructions
Delivery
- Immediately check the packaging and dishwasher for any damage which may have been caused in transit. Do not use a damaged appliance, but consult your supplier.
- Please dispose of packaging material properly:
Installation
Install and connect the appliance according to the installation and assembly instructions.
- The dishwasher must NOT be connected to the power supply during installation.
- Ensure that the protective conductor system of the domestic electricity supply has been installed correctly.
- Electrical connection conditions must correspond with the specifications on the rating plate of the dishwasher.
If the dishwasher is to be installed in a high-sided unit, ensure that the unit is attached properly and also at the rear.
Built-under and built-in appliances should always be installed under a continuous work surface which is attached to the adjacent cupboards, in order to ensure that the appliance is entirely stable.
- After the appliance has been installed, the mains plug should still be easily accessible.
- Not on all models: The plastic housing on the water input contains an electrically operated valve. The connecting wires are inside the inlet hose. Do not cut through this hose and do not immerse the plastic housing in water.
Warning
For safety reasons, if the appliance is not fitted in a recess, thereby making a side wall accessible, the door hinge area should be covered at the side. (Risk of injury)
Covers are available as optional accessories from customer services or specialist stores.
In daily use
Warning
Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be placed in the baskets either flat or with the points downwards.
- Use the dishwasher only in the household and only for its designed purpose, i.e. for washing domestic dishes.
- Do not lean or sit on the open door. The appliance could tip.
- Please note that free-standing appliances may tip over if the baskets are overloaded.
- The water in the appliance is not drinking water.
- Do not add any solvents to the washing chamber. Danger of explosion!
- Open the door carefully when the programme is still running. Water could spray out of the appliance.
- To prevent injuries, e.g. caused by stumbling, open the dishwasher only briefly in order to load and unload the dishwasher.
- Read and observe the safety information and instructions for use on the packaging for cleaning and rinsing agents.
Children in the household
- Do not let infants play or operate the dishwasher.
- Keep cleaning and rinsing agents out of the reach of infants. These may cause chemical burns in the mouth, throat and eyes or asphyxiation.
- Keep infants away from the open dishwasher. It could contain residue of the cleaning agent.
If the appliance is installed at eye-level, ensure when opening and closing the door that children are not caught or crushed between the appliance door and the cupboard door situated below.
Child-proof lock*
- some models
Comply with the drawings in the back of the envelope.
40 Switch on the child-proof lock
41 Open the door with child-proof lock switched on
42 Switch off the child-proof lock
When the door is open, the child-proof lock offers no protection.
If a fault occurs
- Repairs or other work on the dishwasher should only be carried out by a qualified specialist.
- The dishwasher must be disconnected from the electricity supply before any repairs or other work are started. Pull the mains plug out of the wall socket or switch off at the fuse box. Grasp the plug to remove it from the socket; do not tug on the cable. Turn the water off at the tap.
When disposing of old appliances
- Appliances that have reached the end of their service life should be rendered inoperable in order to exclude the possibility of subsequent accidents. Pull the mains plug out of the wall socket, cut through the connecting cable and disable the door lock.
Take the appliance to a designated waste disposal centre.

- not on all models
You will need to purchase the following before using the dishwasher for the first time:
- special salt for use in dishwashers
-detergent
-rinse-aid
Only use products, which are suitable for dishwashers.
Water softener
In order to rinse dishes and glasses satisfactorily, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. containing little or no lime, otherwise water stains will be left behind on crockery and glasses, etc.
If the tap water exceeds a certain level of hardness, it must be softened, i.e.
decalcified, so that it can be used in the dishwasher.
This is achieved by adding a special salt to the water softener inside the dishwasher.
The water softener, that is the required amount of salt, is set up according to how hard the tap water is.
Setting up the water softener
Determine the level of hardness of your tap water. Your local water company or service agent can help you with this.
- Identify setting from the following water hardness table.
Water hardness table
- Set the water hardness switch 25 to the appropriate level.
* not included with all models
Filling in the Salt
- Open the screw-type cap of the compartment [24].
Warning
Before switching on the appliance for the first time, pour approx. 1 litre of water into the salt dispenser.
- Then refill with salt (not cooking salt) until the salt container is full (max. 1.5kg ). When you refill the salt, water is being displaced and drains off.
Refill with salt always just before switching on the appliance in order to prevent corrosion. As a result, any salt solution which has run over will be immediately diluted and flushed out.
- Then clean the filling area of salt residues and screw the compartment lid back on without tilting the lid.
If the switch is set to "0", it is not necessary to add any salt, as none is consumed while the dishwasher is operating. If the switch is set between "1" and "4", then salt must be added.
Warning
Do not pour detergent into the container for special salt. This would destroy the water softener.
LOW SALT indicator
Salt should be added as soon as the coloured dot in the lid on the salt container 24 is no longer visible.
Depending on the washing frequency and the hardness setting, the regeneration salt may not have to be topped up for several months.
Filling the rinse-aid container
The purpose of a rinse-aid is to prevent the formation of water marks on tableware and utensils, and to ensure that glasses are clean and sparkling. The rinse-aid is consumed during the washing process.
- Fold back the lid on the rinse-aid container 30.
To open the lid, press the mark (1^) on the rinse-aid lid and simultaneously lift the lid off the lug (2^) .
Pour the rinse-aid into the filler hole until the level indicator turns dark.
- Close the lid, ensuring that you hear it snap closed.
Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers. Spilt rinse aid may result in excessive foam formation in the next rinse cycle. Therefore, remove any spilt rinse aid with a cloth.
Adjusting the amount of rinse-aid
The amount of rinse-aid added to the water can be varied by adjusting the stepless control. The rinse-aid control has been set to "4" in the factory.
Do not alter the setting of the rinse-aid control unless streaks (turn knob towards "−") or water marks (turn knob towards "+" are left on the dishes.
Rinse aid controller
LOW RINSE-AID indicator
As long as the LOW RINSE-AID indicator on the dispenser 30 is dark, there is sufficient rinse-aid in the dishwasher.
LOW RINSE-AID indicator

Not suitable for the dishwasher
The following should not be cleaned in the dishwasher:
- Wooden cutlery and utensils - these will leach out and become unsightly; even the utilised stickers are not suitable for the temperatures which occur.
- Sensitive ornamental glasses, craft utensil and vases, special antique or irretrievable utensils. These ornaments are not dishwasher-proof.
- Plastic parts sensitive to hot water.
Copper and tin utensils. - Utensils which are soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
- Absorbent materials such as sponges and cloths.
Aluminium and silver parts have a tendency to discolour and fade during the wash cycle. Even some types of glass (e.g. crystal glass objects) may turn cloudy after many wash cycles.
Recommendation:
In future buy utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof.
Damage to glassware and other dishes
Possible causes:
type of glass or manufacturing process
chemical composition of detergent
water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.
Suggested remedy:
Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been marked 'dishwasher-proof' by the manufacturer.
- Use a mild detergent that is described as 'kind to dishes'. If necessary, seek further information from detergent manufacturers.
- Select a programme with as low a temperature and as short a duration as possible.
- To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme has ended.
Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher
Loading the dishwasher
- Scrape off any large amounts of left-over food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water.
-
Place objects in the dishwasher in such a way that
-
items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are stood upside down,
- curved items, or those with recesses, should be at a slant so that water can run off,
they are stacked securely and cannot tip over, - they do not prevent the spray arms from rotating while washing takes place.
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the baskets.
Removing the dishes
To prevent water dripping from the top basket onto the dishes in the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the lower basket first and then the top basket.
Cups and glasses
Upper basket 20
* not included with all models
Pots and pans
Lower basket 28
Cutlery
Cutlery should be placed in the dishwasher always unsorted and with the eating surface pointing downwards. The spray jet is then better able to reach the individual parts.
To prevent injuries, place long, pointed accessories and knives on the étagère (some models) or on the knife shelf (available as an accessory).
Folding spikes *
- on applicable models
To improve stacking of pots and pans, the spikes can be folded down.
Shelf *
- not on all models
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf – not against other items to be washed.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack. The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required.
en
Small accessories holder*
- some models
Light-weight plastic accessories, e.g. cups, lids, etc. can be held securely in the small accessories holder.
Adjusting position of basket *
- not on all models
The top basket can be inserted on either its upper or lower rollers, according to requirement. This enables more height to be gained for bigger dishes in either the top or bottom basket.
Select one of the two following procedures according to the design of the top basket for your appliance model:
Top basket with upper and lower roller pairs
- Pull out the top basket.
- Remove the top basket and re-attach it to the upper or lower rollers.
Top basket with side levers (Rackmatic)
- Pull out the top basket.
- To lower the basket, press in succession the two levers on the left and right sides of the basket. Always take hold of the side of the basket on the upper edge, otherwise the basket will not drop smoothly (and may damage the utensils).
- To raise the basket, take hold of the basket on the upper edge and pull upwards.
Before you re-insert the basket, ensure that it is at the same height on both sides. Otherwise, the appliance door cannot be closed and the upper spray arm will not connect to the water circuit.
Baking sheet spray head *
- some models
You can clean large baking sheets or grilles with the baking sheet spray head. To do this, remove the top basket and insert the spray head as illustrated in the diagram.
To ensure that the spray jet can reach all parts, arrange the baking sheets as illustrated (max. 2 baking sheets and 2 grilles).
Detergents
Information about detergents
You can use any brand of liquid or powder detergent, as well as tablets, that have been specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers. (Do not use normal washing-up liquid!)
Nowadays there are three types of dishwasher detergent available:
- those containing phosphates and chlorine,
- those containing phosphates but no chlorine,
- those containing neither phosphates nor chlorine.
When a phosphate-free detergent is used in conjunction with hard water, there is a greater possibility that white marks will be left behind on crockery and glasses, etc. These can be avoided by pouring an increased amount of detergent into the dispenser.
Chlorine-free detergents have a reduced bleaching effect. This can mean that tea stains are not completely removed or plastic items become discoloured.
This can be resolved by:
- selecting a higher temperature programme, or
- increasing the amount of detergent, or
- using a detergent that contains chlorine.
Check the label on the detergent packaging to determine whether a particular product is suitable for use with silverware.
If you have any further questions, we recommend that you contact the customer advice departments of the various detergent manufacturers.
Detergent compartment with measuring marks
The side of the detergent compartment is marked with lines to help you determine how much powder to add.
The capacity of the detergent container is 15ml up to the bottom line and 25ml up to the middle line. When the compartment is full it contains 40ml .
If the detergent dispenser 31 is still closed, press the lock 29 to open the detergent dispenser.
Adding detergent
- Fill the dispenser 31 with detergent.
Please observe the manufacturer's instructions printed on the detergent packaging when determining the correct dosage.
Important
Due to the different solvency properties of the detergent tablets supplied by various manufacturers, the cleaning efficiency of the detergent may not be fully utilised by short programmes. It is recommended to use washing powder for these programmes.
If using the "Intensive" programme (some models), also pour approx. 10 - 15ml of detergent onto the appliance door. If using tablets, also place a tablet on the appliance door.
Reduce costs!
If your dishes are only moderately dirty, you may be able to use less detergent than recommended.
- Close the lid on the detergent compartment.
Press down the lid (1) until it clicks shut (2).
If you are using detergent in tablet form, read the manufacturer's
recommendations on the packaging in order to
determine where the tablets should be placed inside the dishwasher (e.g. in cutlery basket, detergent compartment, etc.).
Make sure that the lid on the detergent compartment is closed, even if you are using tablets.
CAUTION IMPORTANT NOTE ON THE USE OF COMBINED CLEANING PRODUCTS
Please note the following when using "combined cleaning products" which eliminate the need for a rinsing agent or salt, for example:
- Some products with a built-in rinsing agent are only used to their full effect in certain programmes.
- This type of product does not generally produce the desired effect with automatic programmes.
- Products which eliminate the need for regeneration salt can only be used within a certain water hardness range.
If you wish to use these combined products, please read the instructions carefully and heed any notes on the packaging.
Contact the manufacturer of the cleaning agent if you have any questions, particularly if:
the crockery is very wet once the programme has finished.
limescale deposits are formed.
Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty.
Programme overview
This overview lists the max. possible number of programmes. The programmes supplied with your appliance are indicated on the fascia.
Programme selection
The most appropriate programme can be identified by comparing the type of crockery, cutlery, etc., as well as the amount and condition of food remains, with the details contained in the programme overview.
Reduce costs!
If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into the dishwasher, selecting a programme that operates at the next lowest temperature will usually suffice.
Programme data
The programme data (duration, energy and water consumption) can be found in the summary of instructions and refers to standard conditions. Greater deviations may be caused by:
- different quantities of utensils
- inlet temperature of the water
water pressure
ambient temperature - mains voltage tolerances
and appliance-specific tolerances (e.g. temperature, water flow rate, etc.)
The water consumption values refer to water hardness value 2.
Washing the dishes
Switching on the appliance
Turn on the tap fully.
- Check once again that the spray arms can rotate freely.
- Select a programme with the programme selector 1 (rotate in a clockwise direction only).
- Press the main switch 5. The indicator light 7 illuminates. The programme starts.
Programme sequence indicator
While the dishes are being washed, the programme selector rotates in a clockwise direction and indicates how far the programme has progressed.
End of programme
The programme has ended when the pump noise is no longer audible and the programme selector has reached its initial position (12 o'clock position).
Switching the dishwasher OFF
Several minutes after the programme has ended:
- Set the main switch 5 to OFF. The indicator light 7 extinguishes.
- Turn the water tap off. (Does not apply when Aqua-Stop unit has been fitted) It is not necessary to reset the programme selector.
- Remove dishes, etc. when they have cooled down.
en
Interrupting the programme
- Set the main switch 5 to OFF.
- Indicator lights extinguish.
If the hot water was switched ON or the appliance has already heated up and then the appliance door opened, leave the door ajar for several minutes and then close. Otherwise, the appliance door may fly open due to expansion.

If the power supply is disconnected while the appliance is operating, e.g. by switching off the appliance or due to a power failure, all settings remain stored. Operation continues automatically as soon as the power supply is restored.
Maintenance and care
A regular inspection and maintenance of your machine will help to prevent faults. This saves time and prevents problems. Therefore you should occasionally have a careful look inside your dishwasher.
Overall condition of the machine
- Check spray arm for grease and limescale deposits.
If you find such deposits: - Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent, start the appliance without utensils in the programme which has the highest wash temperature.
Clean the appliance with detergents/ appliance cleaners which are particularly suitable for use with dishwashers.
- Regularly wipe the door seal with a damp cloth to remove deposits.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean your dishwasher. The manufacturer is not liable for any consequential damage.
Regularly wipe the front of the appliance and panel with a damp cloth; water and a little washing-up liquid will suffice.
Do not use sponges with a rough surface or abrasive detergents, as these could scratch the surfaces.
Attention!
Never use other chlorinated household detergents! Health hazard!
Dishwasher salt
Check the LOW SALT indicator 24. Top up with salt, if required.
Rinse-aid
Check the level of liquid in the rinse-aid container 30. Top up with rinse-aid, if required.
Filters
The filters 26 prevent large particles of food in the water from reaching the pump. These particles may occasionally block the filters.
- When the appliance has finished washing, check the filters for particles of food and, if required, clean.
After undoing the coarse micro-filter, the filter unit can be removed. Remove any particles of food and rinse the filters under running water. - Insert the filter unit and tighten the coarse micro-filter.
Spray arms
Lime and remnants of food in the washing water can block the nozzles in the spray arms 22 and 23 and the arm mountings.
- Inspect the nozzles in the spray arms for blocked holes due to remnants of food.
If necessary, pull the lower arm upwards and lift it off.
Unscrew the upper spray arm 22 - Clean both spray arms under running water.
- Refit the spray arms. Ensure that the lower arm has locked into place and the upper one is screwed tight.
en
Pump *
- on applicable models
Larger remnants of food that have not been trapped by the filters and have been left in the water can cause a blockage in the pump. The water is no longer pumped out of the dishwasher and it can be seen covering the filter.
Proceed as follows:
- First, always disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
Ladle out as much water as possible. - Remove the filters 26
- Undo the screw in the cover (Torx T 20) and remove the cover.
- Inspect the inside and remove any obstructions that you find.
- Re-insert the cover and screw down.
- Re-insert the filters and screw down.
