Rinse aid

Rinse ai dThe rinse aid ensures stain-free dishes and clear glasses. Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers. As soon as the rinse aid refill indicator lights up in the control panel, there is still a rinse aid reserve of 1-2 rinse cycles. Top up the rinse aid.

Top up the rinse aid as follows:

1. Open dispenser press lug on the lid (1) and lift (2).

2. Add rinse aid up to the max. mark.

3. Close the lid. The lid "clicks" into position.

4. Remove overflowed rinse aid with a cloth. This prevents excessive frothing during the next rinse cycle.

Setting amount of rinse aid

You can set the amount of rinse aid that should be added to a value between and . Setting the amount of rinse aid to be dispensed to will give you a very good drying result. The factory setting is .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.

Here’s how to set the amount of rinse aid:

1. Switch on ON/OFF switch .

2. Hold down the programme button and then repeatedly press the START button until ... appears in the display window.

3. Release both buttons.

Using detergent with a rinse aid component

In general, you can use detergent with a rinse aid component up to a water hardness level of 21 °dH (37 °fH, 26 °Clark, 3.7 mmol/L) without adding rinse aid. Above a water hardness value of 21 °dH, use additional rinse aid.

Switching off rinse aid refill indicator

If the rinse aid refill indicator bothers you (e.g. if you are using a combination detergent with a rinse aid component), you can switch off the rinse aid refill indicator.

Proceed as described under "Setting rinse aid quantity" and set the level to. The rinse aid refill indicator is switched off.

Utensils

Not suitable

Detergent

You can use tablets as well as powder or liquid detergents for dishwashers, but never use washing-up liquid. The dosage can be individually adjusted with powder or a liquid detergent according to the degree of soiling. Tablets contain an adequately large amount of active ingredients for all cleaning tasks. Modern, powerful detergents predominantly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes. Enzymes break down starch and remove protein. To remove colored stains (e.g. tea, ketchup), oxygen-based bleaching agents are generally used.

Note: To ensure a good washing result, always follow the instructions on the detergent packaging! If you have further questions, we recommend that you contact the detergent manufacturers’ helplines.

Adding detergent

1. If the detergent dispenser is still closed, actuate locking bar to open it.

2. Pour detergent into the dry detergent dispenser only (insert tablet flat, not on its edge).

3. Dosage: see manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging. Use graduated detergent dispenser. Usually, 20 ml–25 ml are adequate for normal soiling. If using tablets, one tablet is adequate.

4. Close cover on the detergent dispenser. Cover “clicks” into position

The detergent dispenser opens automatically at the optimum time depending on the programme. The powder or liquid detergent is distributed in the appliance and is dissolved, the tablet falls into the tablet collecting tray where it dissolves in doses.

Tip: If the utensils are only lightly soiled, slightly less than the indicated amount of detergent is usually adequate. Suitable detergents and care products can be purchased online via our website or via customer service (see back page).

Operating the appliance

AquaSensor *

* depending on the features of your dishwasher

The Aqua sensor is an optical measuring device (light barrier) which measures the turbidity of the rinsing water.

The AquaSensor is used according to the programme. If the AquaSensor is active, “clean” rinsing water can be transferred to the next rinse bath and water consumption can be reduced by 3–6 litres. If the turbidity is greater, the water is drained and is replaced with fresh water. In the automatic programmes the temperature and running time can also be adjusted to the degree of soiling.

Cleaning and maintenance

Overall status of the dishwasher

*The interior of your dishwasher is predominantly self-cleaning. In order to remove deposits, your dishwasher automatically changes the running of the programme (such as by increasing the cleaning temperature) at certain intervals. This will lead to higher consumption values when running this programme.

*Depending on the features of your dishwasher

If you should find deposits in the interior of the dishwasher in spite of this, remove these deposits as follows:

1. Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent.

2. Select the programme with the highest temperature.

3. Start the programme without dishes.

Machine Care

Machine Care used in combination with commercially available machine cleaning detergent is a suitable programme for cleaning your dishwasher. Deposits such as grease and limescale can cause your dishwasher to malfunction. In order to avoid such faults and to reduce the development of odours, we recommend cleaning the dishwasher at regular intervals.

* As soon as the Machine Care display lights up in the control panel, or you are advised to do so on the front display, run the Machine cleaning programme Machine Care without loading any tableware. After you have run the Machine Care the display in the control panel will go out.

If your dishwasher does not have a reminder function, follow the instructions for use on the machine cleaning detergents.

Rinse aid

Fill the rinse aid as soon as the refill indicator lights up in the control panel

Filters

The filters keep large foreign objects in the rinsing water away from the pump. hese foreign objects may occasionally block the filters.

The filter system consists of

■ a coarse filter

■ a flat fine filter

■ a microfilter

1. After each washing cycle check the filters for residue.

2. Unscrew filter cylinder as illustrated and take out filter system.

3. Remove any residue and clean filters under running water.

4. Re-install filter system in reverse sequence and ensure that the arrow marks are opposite each other after closing the filter system.

Spray arms

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

1. Check outlet nozzles on the spray arms for blockages.

2. Unscrew the upper spray arm (1) and remove downwards (2).

3. Remove the lower spray arm upwards.

4. Clean spray arms under running water.

5. Re-engage or screw on spray arms.
