Rinse aid

As soon as the rinse-aid refill indicator is lit on the fascia, there is still a rinse-aid reserve of 1-2 rinsing processes. Refill with rinse aid. The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses. Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers.

Combined detergents with rinse-aid component may be used up to a water hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l) only. If the water hardness is over 21° dH, rinse aid must be used.

1. Open the dispenser by pressing and lifting the plate on the cover.

2. Carefully pour rinse aid up to the max. mark in the filler opening.

3. Close cover until it clicks shut.

4. To prevent excessive foam formation during the next rinse cycle, remove any rinse aid which has run over with a cloth.

The rinse aid refill indicator is now switched off.

Utensils

Not suitable

• Cutlery and utensils made of wood.
• Delicate decorative glasses, craft, and antique utensils. These decors are not dishwasher-proof.
• Plastic parts not resistant to heat.
• Copper and tin utensils.
• Utensils which are soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.

Aluminum and silver parts have a tendency to discolor and fade during the wash cycle. Even some types of glass (e.g. crystal glass objects) may turn cloudy after many wash cycles.

Glass and utensil damage

Causes:

■ Glass type and glass production process.

■ Chemical composition of the detergent.

■ Water temperature of the wash programme.

Recommendation:

■ Use only glasses and porcelain which the manufacturer designates as dishwasher-proof.

■ Use a detergent which protects utensils.

■ Take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme ends.

Loading the dishwasher

1. Remove large food remnants. It is not necessary to prerinse utensils under running water.

2. Place the utensils so that

– they are secure and cannot tip over.

– all utensils with their openings face down.

– parts with curves or indentations are at an angle, thereby allowing water to drain.

– does not obstruct rotation of the two spray arms and

Very small utensils should not be washed in the machine, as they may fall out of the baskets.

Unloading the dishwasher

To prevent water from dripping off the upper basket onto the utensils in the lower basket, it is recommended to empty the appliance from the bottom up.

Hot utensils are sensitive to shock! Therefore, when the programme ends, leave the utensils to cool down in the dishwasher until they can be handled.

Cups and glasses

Top basket

Note: Utensils must not be placed above the tablet collecting tray . These may block the lid of the detergent dispenser and prevent it from opening fully.

Pans

Bottom basket

Tip- Heavily soiled utensils (pans) should be placed in the bottom basket. The more powerful spray jet provides a better dishwashing result.

Other examples, such as the best way of loading your dishwasher, can be found on our homepage as a free download. The corresponding Internet address can be found on the back page of these instructions for use.

Cutlery drawer

Arrange the cutlery in the cutlery drawer as illustrated. Separately arranged cutlery is easier to remove after washing.

The drawer can be taken out

Folding spikes *

* depending on model

The spikes can be folded down to improve arrangement of pans, bowls and glasses

Small accessories holder *

* depending on model

Light-weight plastic accessories, e.g. cups, lids, etc. can be held securely in the small accessories holder.

Adjusting the height of the basket

The height of the upper utensils basket can be adjusted in 3 stages to create more space either in the upper or lower basket.

Appliance height 81.5 cm

1. Pull out the top basket out.

2. To lower the basket, press in the left and then the right lever on the outside of the basket. In doing so, hold the sides of the basket along the upper edge to prevent it from suddenly dropping.

3. To raise the basket, hold the basket on the sides of the upper edge and lift it up.

4. Before re-inserting the basket again, 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 be connected to the water circuit.

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 dispenseris still closed, press the lock to open the detergent dispenser.

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

Dosage: see manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging.

The graduated detergent dispenser helps you add the correct amount of powder or liquid detergent

Usually, 20 ml–25 ml are adequate for normal soiling. If using tablets, one tablet is adequate.

2. Close the cover on the detergent dispenser by sliding it up until the lock engages without difficulty

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.
