Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environ-
mentally compatible and can be re-
cycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by
type and dispose of them separ-
ately.
Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less electricity and
less water.
Use the Eco50° programme.
The Eco50° programme is en-
ergy-efficient and environmentally
friendly.
→"Programmes", Page18
If you do not have much tableware to
wash, use the additional Half Load
function.

The programme will adjust to a
lower load and consumption will
be reduced.
→"Additional functions", Page20
Change the sensor setting to the de-
fault.
Consumption is reduced.
→"Sensors", Page11
AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical meas-
uring device (light barrier) which
measures the turbidity of the rinsing
water. You can save water with the
AquaSensor.
Use of the AquaSensor depends on
the programme. If the soiling level is
high, the rinsing water is drained off
and replaced with fresh water. If the
soiling level is lower, the rinsing wa-
ter is used in the next wash cycle, so
reducing water consumption by 3-6
litres. In the automatic programmes
the temperature and run time are ad-
ditionally adjusted to the level of soil-
ing.
Sensors
The sensors adjust the programme
sequence and strength in the auto-
matic programmes depending on the
level and type of soiling.
The sensor has different sensitivity
settings that can be changed in the
basic settings.
Sensor setting Description
SE:00 Optimum setting for a
mixed load and heavily
soiled tableware. Saves
both energy and water.
1
Depending on the appliance specifications
en Installation and connection
12
Sensor setting Description
SE:01 Adjusts the programme
strength for effective re-
moval of food remnants
even with low soiling
levels. Energy and water
consumption are adjusted
accordingly.
SE:02 Adjusts the programme
strength for difficult condi-
tions of use, e.g. stubborn
dried-on food remnants.
Recommended setting
when using organic or eco-
logical detergents contain-
ing low levels of active
agents. Energy and water
consumption are adjusted
accordingly.
Efficient Dry
The appliance door opens automatic-
ally during the drying phase. This en-
sures a particularly economical dry-
ing result.
For best drying results wait until the
end of programme before unloading
the tableware. The programme has
ended when the display shows
"00h:00m".
If the automatic door opening is de-
activated, energy consumption in-
creases and the drying phase is usu-
ally reduced.

Detergent
Find out which detergents are suit-
able for your appliance.
Suitable detergents
Only use detergents that are suitable
for dishwashers. Both separate and
combined detergents are suitable.
For optimum washing and drying res-
ults, use separate detergent, adding
"Special salt" →Page27 and "Rinse
aid" →Page28 separately.
Modern, powerful detergents mainly
use a low-alkaline formulation with
enzymes. Enzymes break down
starch and remove protein. Oxygen-
based bleaching agents are generally
used to remove coloured marks, e.g.
tea or ketchup.
Note:Follow the manufacturer's in-
structions for each detergent.

Detergent Description
Tabs Tabs are suitable for all
cleaning functions and do
not need to be measured
out.
With shorter "Pro-
grammes" →Page18 tabs
sometimes do not dissolve
entirely and leave residues
of detergent. This may im-
pair the cleaning effect.
Powder deter-
gent
Powder detergent is re-
commended for shorter
"Programmes" →Page18.
The dosage can be adjus-
ted to the level of soiling.
Liquid detergent Liquid detergent works
faster and is recommen-
ded for shorter "Pro-
grammes" →Page18
without PreRinse.
Sometimes liquid deter-
gent may leak out despite
the detergent dispenser
being closed. This is not a
fault and is non-critical if
you remember the follow-
ing:
¡ Only choose a pro-
gramme without PreR-
inse.
¡ Do not select timer pro-
gramming for starting
the programme.
The dosage can be adjus-
ted to the level of soiling.
Tip:Suitable detergents are available
online via our website or from "Cus-
tomer Service" →Page58.
Separate detergents
Separate detergents are products
that do not contain components other
than detergent, e.g. powder deter-
gent or liquid detergent.
With powder and liquid detergent the
dosage can be individually adjusted
to the level of soiling of the table-
ware.
For better washing and drying results
and to avoid damage to the appli-
ance, please additionally use "Spe-
cial salt" →Page27 and "Rinse aid"
→Page28.
Combined detergent
Besides conventional separate deter-
gents, a number of products are
available with additional functions.
These products contain not only de-
tergent but also rinse aid and salt re-
placement substances (3in1) and,
depending on the combination (4in1,
5in1,...), additional components such
as glass protection or stainless steel
cleaner.
According to manufacturers, com-
bined detergents generally only func-
tion up to a water hardness of 26°E.
With a water hardness above 26°E
you will need to add special salt and
rinse aid. For the best washing and
drying results we recommend using
special salt and rinse aid from a wa-
ter hardness of 17°E. If you are us-
ing combined detergent, the washing
programme is adjusted automatically
to ensure the best possible washing
and drying result.
Unsuitable detergents
Do not use detergent which could
cause damage to the appliance or
present a risk to health.

Information on detergents
Follow the instructions on detergents
in everyday use.
¡ Detergents marked as "organic" or
"ecological" (environmentally
friendly) generally contain lower
levels of active agents or com-
pletely dispense with certain sub-
stances. The cleaning effect may
be restricted here.
¡ Set the rinse aid and the water
softening system to the separate
detergent or combined detergent
in use.
¡ According to manufacturers, com-
bined detergents with salt replace-
ment substances can only be used
up to a certain water hardness,
usually 26°E, without adding spe-
cial salt. For the best washing and
drying results we recommend us-
ing special salt from a water hard-
ness of 17°E.
¡ To prevent sticking, only touch de-
tergents in a water-soluble pouch
with dry hands and only ever place
them in a dry detergent dispenser.
¡ Even if the rinse aid and special
salt refill indicators light up, wash-
ing programmes will run properly
with combined detergents.
¡ The function of rinse aid is limited
with combined detergents. You will
generally get better results using
rinse aid.
¡ Use tablets with a special drying
performance.
Adding detergent
1. To open the detergent dispenser,
press the locking latch.
2. Add the detergent to the dry deter-
gent dispenser.
15 ml
25 ml

If you are using tablets, one is
enough. Insert the tablets in a hori-
zontal position.
If you are using powder or liquid
detergent, follow the manufac-
turer's instructions and quantities
for dosage in the detergent dis-
penser.
20ml–25ml detergent is suffi-
cient for normal soiling. If table-
ware is only lightly soiled, slightly
less than the amount of detergent
specified is usually sufficient.

3. Close the lid of the detergent dis-
penser.
a The lid clicks into position.
a The detergent dispenser will open
automatically at the optimum time
during the programme. Powder or
liquid detergent will spread around
the washing tank and dissolve
there. Tablets will fall into the tablet
collecting tray and dissolve in the
right dosage. In order to ensure
that tablets can dissolve evenly, do
not place any other objects in the
tablet collecting tray.
Tip:If you use powder detergent and
select a program with pre-rinse, you
can also add a little detergent to the
interior door of the appliance.

ware, arrange it so it is stable
and cannot tip over.
– To prevent injury, arrange cut-
lery with the points and sharp
edges downwards.
– Position containers with the
openings facing down so no wa-
ter can collect in them.
– Do not block the spray arms -
make sure that they can turn
freely.
– Do not place small parts in the
tablet collecting tray and do not
block it with tableware so as not
to obstruct the lid of the deter-
gent dispenser.

ing a damp cloth and
washing-up liquid.
If the appliance is not
going to be used for a
while, leave the door
slightly ajar.
This will prevent un-
pleasant odours.
Machine Care
Deposits, e.g. from remnants of food
and limescale, can cause your appli-
ance to malfunction. To avoid such
faults and reduce odours, we recom-
mend cleaning your appliance at reg-
ular intervals.
Machine Care combined with ma-
chine care products and machine
cleaners is the right programme for
the care of your appliance.
Tip:You can get our tested and ap-
proved Dishwasher Care and Ma-
chine Cleaner for Dishwashers online

store or from customer service.
Machine Care is a programme which
removes various deposits in one
washing cycle. Cleaning takes place
in two phases:
Phase Removal of Detergent Placement
1 Grease and limescale Liquid machine care product
or machine descaler in
powder form.
Appliance interior, e.g. bottle
hung in the cutlery basket or
powder in the interior.
2 Food remnants and de-
posits
Machine cleaner Detergent dispenser
To ensure optimum cleaning perform-
ance, the programme doses the de-
tergents independently of each an-
other during the relevant cleaning
phase. Correct placement of the de-
tergents is necessary here.
Run Machine Care without tableware
if the indicator for Machine Care
lights up on the control panel or if ad-
vised to do so by the display. The in-
dicator will go out after you have run
Machine Care. If your appliance does
not have a reminder function, we re-
commend performing Machine Care
every 2months.
