Instructions when using your dishwasher
This dishwasher is not designed for commercial use. It is intended for use in domestic
households and in similar working and residential environments such as:
• Shops
• Ofces and showrooms
and by residents in establishments such as:
• Hostels and guest houses.
It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specied in this user manual, for cleaning
domestic crockery and cutlery. Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and
could be dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper
use or operation.
Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion.
Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant or
corrosive ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed,
or inhibit breathing. Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or
inhaled.
Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over it.
Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dishwasher to tip and be
damaged, and you could get injured.
Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers. Do not use
washing-up liquid.
Do not use any strong acid cleaning agent.
Do not ll the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious
damage to the reservoir.
Inadvertently lling the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dishwasher detergent
will damage the water softener. Make sure you have picked up the correct packet of
dishwasher salt before lling the salt reservoir.
Please only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, as other salts may
contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the softener.
In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cutlery is cleaned and dried
more if placed in efciently the basket with the handles downwards. However, to avoid the
risk of injury, place knives and forks etc. with the handles upwards.

Loading dishes
Lower rack
We recommend that you place large items, that are difcult to clean (such as pots, pans,
lids, serving dishes and bowls), in to the lower rack.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid
blocking the rotation of the upper nozzle. Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed
top down.
Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to ow out.
The lower rack features folding tines to easily load more larger pots and pans.
DW5*R406*BB / DW5*R404*BB DW5*R407*BB / DW5*R405*BB
NOTE
Long items, serving cutlery, salad servers and big knives should be placed on the shelf so
that they do not obstruct the rotation of the nozzles.
