Run programs only with a full load
Wait to run a program until the dishwasher is full. This
way you save energy. Use the Rinse & Hold program
to rinse the dishes if there are any unpleasant odours
while you wait for the dishwasher to become fully
loaded.
Run programs at a lower
temperature
If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select a
lower temperature with certain programs. See also
the section Select options in the chapter Dishwashing.
Select a program with Short dry
To save energy, use Short dry. The drying result will
be better if, once the program is finished, you leave
the door slightly open.
Do not rinse under running water
Simply scrape off large food particles before loading
the dishwasher.
Choose a green detergent
Read the environmental declaration on the packaging!
Connect to cold water...
If you use oil or electricity to heat your home.
Connect to hot water (max. 70 °C)...
If you use district heating, solar power or geothermal
power to heat your home. Choosing a hot water
connection cuts program times and reduces the
dishwasher's electricity consumption.
11
Economic dishwashing
background
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be
for several reasons. Some materials cannot withstand
strong heat, others can be damaged by dishwashing
detergent.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the
items feel rough) should not be washed in a
dishwasher.
Crystal/Glass
Position items so that they do not touch each other
during the wash. Use the lowest possible wash
temperature and the shortest possible program.
Select Short dry. Antique and very fragile items should
not be washed in a dishwasher.
Glass washed in a dishwasher at high temperatures
can gradually develop a grey film that cannot be
removed. Wash fragile glasses at a low temperature
and with a small amount of detergent.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into
contact, as the silver can become discoloured.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In such
cases, the handles may loosen.
Wood
Wooden items should only be washed in a dishwasher
if marked dishwasher safe.
Aluminium
Aluminium can lose its shine if washed in a
dishwasher. However, good quality aluminium pans
can be washed in a dishwasher, even if some of the
shine will be lost.
Plastic items
Avoid washing plastic items that cannot withstand
high temperatures.
12
Fragile dishes
background
Below are step-by-step instructions to help you
achieve the best possible dishwashing results.
1
Load the baskets correctly
Do not rinse dishes under running water before
loading them in the dishwasher. Simply scrape
off large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates and saucers
in the upper basket. Wine glasses are placed on the
wine glass shelf and knives are placed in the knife
stand on the right (if fitted).
NOTE!
All dirty surfaces should face inwards and
downwards!
Place plates, side plates, serving dishes, pots and
cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket.
Place cutlery with the handles facing down, except
for knives, and spread them out as much as possible.
Ensure that spoons do not stack inside each other.
The cutlery basket is placed in the lower basket.
WARNING!
Knives and other pointed items must be placed with
the points down in the cutlery basket or horizontally
in other baskets.
Do not place cutlery made of different materials, such
as silver and stainless steel, in the same place (risk
of discolouration).
The cutlery basket has a fold-down section in the
middle for small items, or small shafts, such as electric
whisk attachments.
See the section Fragile dishes if you want to wash
items that may be considered fragile.
2
Check that the spray arms can
rotate freely
3
Add detergent
Detergent is added according to water
hardness.
Follow the instructions on the detergent packaging.
Too much detergent can result in less effective
dishwashing and also entails greater environmental
impact.
Add the detergent to the detergent compartment.
There is one compartment for the prewash and one
for the main wash (see the section Dispenser). If
tablets are not used, add a small amount of the
detergent to the prewash compartment. Contact the
detergent manufacturer if you have any questions
about the detergent.
WARNING!
Children must be supervised dishwasher detergent
is corrosive!
NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Washing up liquid
must not be used as the foam that forms prevents
the dishwasher from operating effectively.
13
Dishwashing
background
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser
lid. There is a risk that the detergent will not be
released properly if the lid is tight and will not open
correctly.
NOTE!
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short
programs (less than 75 minutes). Use powder or
liquid dishwasher detergent instead.

background
Once you have selected a program and options, the
display indicates how long the program took the last
time it was used.Once you have started the
dishwasher, the display indicates how much program
time remains. The remaining time is updated after the
water for the final rinse has been heated.
This may differ somewhat from time to time depending
on the temperature of the water supply, the amount
of dishes, the ambient temperature and other factors.
While the program is running, the time counts down
and the remaining program time is shown on the
display. The remaining time is shown, for example,
as 1:15, which means the program will run for another
1 hour and 15 minutes.
NOTE!
During the first run of each program, the remaining
time displayed can be slightly misleading, as the
dishwasher is estimating the time. When you run the
program a second time, the dishwasher will calculate
the remaining time based on the previous duration
of the program.

Safety instructions
Connections to electricity, water and drainage
must be performed by a qualified professional.
Electrical, water and drainage installations must
be carried out by a qualified professional.
Always follow applicable regulations for water,
drainage and electricity.
An incorrect or flawed installation can result in
higher consumption of energy, water and
detergent, which can result in increased costs and
poor dishwashing results. In order to minimise
noise it is important that you follow the instructions.
Exercise caution during installation! Use protective
gloves! Always have someone assist you!
Place a watertight protective tray on the floor under
the dishwasher to prevent damage from any water
leaks.
Before screwing the dishwasher into place, test
the dishwasher by running the Rinse & Hold
program. Check that the dishwasher fills with water
and drains. Check also that none of the
connections leak.
WARNING!
Turn off the water supply when installing the
dishwasher!
WARNING!
The plug must be disconnected or power to the
socket turned off while the work is carried out!

Installation
background
Suggested machine installations
The dishwasher can be installed built-in, completely
freestanding or partially built-in.
A. Built-in
The dishwasher is intended for installation under a
worktop. The recess dimensions are illustrated. Holes
for wires/cables need not be larger than 38 mm in
diameter. Make sure the edges of such holes are even
to prevent damage to the drainage and inlet hoses
and the power cable.

820*-878
[mm]
*Remove washers and glide foot for an
installed height of 820-824 mm.
B. Freestanding
A freestanding dishwasher must be fitted with anti-tip
brackets. This comprises two brackets, which are
screwed into place as illustrated.
Next, slide the dishwasher into place so that the
brackets grip the rear feet. Now the dishwasher will
not tip over if a load is placed on the door when open.
If the dishwasher is installed completely freestanding,
side panels and a worktop should be fitted. These
accessories can be purchased where you bought the
dishwasher.

WARNING!
A completely freestanding dishwasher must be fitted
with anti-tip brackets.
C. Partially built-in
If the dishwasher is installed so that either side is
visible, you can fit a side panel. These accessories
can be purchased where you bought the dishwasher.

Installation
background
Adjust the height and slide the
dishwasher into place
1.
Attach the coasters (if applicable) to the
dishwasher.
2.
Start by measuring the height from the floor to the
bottom edge of the worktop.
3.
Measure the height from the floor to the top edge
of the dishwasher.
4.
Adjust all feet by turning them clockwise to raise
or anticlockwise to lower the dishwasher.
5.
Check that there is an air gap of at least 3 mm
between the underside of the worktop and the top
edge of the dishwasher.
6.
Tighten the lock nuts (lock nut) on the rear feet.
7.
Slide the dishwasher into place.
Pull through the drainage and supply hoses
when the machine is slid into place.
Check that the hoses have no kinks or sharp
bends, and check that there is nothing that can
damage the hoses.
8.
Make any final adjustments to the front feet (the
dishwasher may lean no more than 5 mm) and
tighten the lock nuts.
If you want to install your dishwasher freestanding,
skip steps 2, 3 and 5 above.

Drainage connection
When the drainage hose is routed to a connection
nipple on the sink unit's water trap (see illustration 1),
please note that the hose must be attached at the
same height as the underside of the sink unit,
otherwise dishwater from the sink may flow back into
the dishwasher. The drainage hose is threaded onto
the cone-shaped connection pipe on the sink unit's
water trap. The cone-shaped pipe must be cut to an
internal diameter of at least 14 mm. For other
connection alternatives, see illustrations 2 and 3.
The drainage hose may be extended by a maximum
of 3 m (the total length of the drainage hose must not
exceed 4,5 m). Any joins and connecting pipes must
have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm. However,
the drainage hose should ideally be replaced with a
new hose without joins.
No part of the drainage hose may be more than 950
mm above the bottom of the dishwasher. The hose
must not be routed directly to the floor drain or similar.
In such cases, the hose can act as a siphon and
empty the dishwasher.
The hose must always discharge at least 350 mm
above the bottom of the machine.
Ensure that the drainage hose has no kinks.
NOTE!
The hose must be attached at the same height as
the underside of the sink.

Connection to water supply
Use only the supply hose provided with the
dishwasher. Do not re-use old hoses or other spare
supply hoses.
The supply pipe must be fitted with a stopcock. The
stopcock must be easily accessible, so that the water
can be shut off if the dishwasher has to be moved.
Once the installation is complete, the stopcock should
be opened to allow the pressure to settle for a while
and to check that all connections are tight.
Connect to cold water...
If you use oil or electricity to heat your home.
Connect to hot water (max. 70 °C)...
If you use, for example, district heating, solar power
or geothermal power to heat your home.
NOTE!
Connecting a dishwasher to the water supply via
certain types of pressure limiting valves may restrict
the water supply!
This may cause F:12 error code/ Water inlet fault to
be displayed.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be
found on the serial number plate This specification
must match the electricity supply.
Dishwashers fitted with a plug must be connected to
an earthed socket.
The electric wall socket must be placed outside of the
installation area to be easily accessible after installing
the dishwasher. Do not use an extension cord!
NOTE!
Repairs and maintenance must be carried out by a
qualified professional.
Adjusting the plinth (only when
using toe kick accessory)
The dishwasher is supplied with one or two toe kicks
depending on the model. The table shows which toe
kick you should use depending on the recess height
and plinth depth. Attach the enclosed soundproofing
material to the toe kick (certain models).
