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. Aluminium and silver parts have a tendency to discolour 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 23 and 25.

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

Upper basket

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 coloured 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.

Warning - Risk of injury and damage due to non-observance of the safety instructions for detergent and rinse-aid products!

Always follow the safety instructions for detergent products and rinse-aid products.

Adding detergent

1. If the detergent dispenser 30 is still closed, actuate locking bar 9* to open it.
2. Pour detergent into the dry detergent dispenser 30 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.
   [IMAGE]
4. Close cover on the detergent dispenser.
   Cover “clicks” into position.
   [IMAGE]
   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).

Notes

• If programmes are short, tablets may not have full cleaning effect due to different dissolving properties and there may even be undissolved detergent residue. It is recommended to use washing powder for these programmes.
• The Intensive programme (on some models) requires one tab only. When using washing powder, you can apply some of this cleaning agent to the inside of the appliance’s door.
• If using detergents in a water-soluble protective cover: Take hold of the cover with dry hands only and put the detergent into an absolutely dry detergent dispenser only, otherwise the detergent may stick.
• If you switch from combined detergents to solo detergents, ensure that the water softening system * and amount of rinse aid have been set to the correct value.

Overview of programmes

The max. possible number of programmes is illustrated in this overview. The corresponding programmes for your appliance can be found on the fascia. The programme data has been measured in the laboratory according to AS/NSZ 2007.

Note: The consumption figures depend on the selected programme and additional functions. The programme duration will be different if the machine is short of rinse additive or the function is turned off.

[IMAGE]

[IMAGE]

Programme selection

You can select a suitable programme according to the type of utensils and type of soiling.

Additional functions

* Depending on the features of your dishwasher, you can select different additional functions 8.

Speed Perfect *

This function can reduce the running time by approx. 20% to 50% depending on the selected rinse programme. To obtain optimum cleaning and drying results at a reduced running time, water and energy consumption are increased.

Half load *

If you have only a few items to wash (e.g. glasses, cups, plates), you can switch to “half load”. This will save water, energy and time. It is recommended to put a little less detergent in the detergent dispenser than for a full load.

hygienePlus (HygienePlus) *

This function increases the temperatures and retains them for an extra long time to obtain a defined disinfection performance. Continuous use of this function increases the hygiene status. This additional option is ideal for cleaning e.g. chopping boards and baby bottles.

intensiveZone *

Perfect for a mixed load. You can wash very soiled pots and pans in the lower basket together with normally soiled utensils in the upper basket. The spray pressure in the lower basket is intensified, the rinsing temperature is increased slightly.

Extra Dry *

An increased temperature during the final rinse and an extended drying phase ensure that even plastic parts dry better. There is a slight increase in the energy consumption.

Operating the appliance

Tip: If you change several settings, first make all changes in succession. Now press the Info button 3 for 3 seconds. This saves all set values in 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.

Time display

The running time is determined during the programme by the water temperature, the number of utensils as well as the degree of soiling and may vary (depending on the selected programme). You can change the time display in time or hours/minutes so that the remaining running time of the rinsing progamme appears in the display window “Ready at” (for example 15:20 hours) or “Ready in” (for example 3:25).

Sensor setting

The programme sequence is optmised in Auto programmes with the aid of sensors. The sensors adjust the programme strength of Auto programmes depending on the amount and type of soiling. You can adjust the sensitivity of the sensors in 3 stages.

Standard: This setting is ideal for a mixed load and heavily soiled utensils, but also saves energy and water.

Sensitive: This setting adjusts the programme strength for the effective removal of food remnants, even if the amount of soiling is low. The energy and water consumption is adjusted accordingly.

Very sensitive: This setting adjusts the programme strength for difficult conditions of use, for example firmly dried on food remnants. This setting is recommended if using biological or eco detergents which contain lower amounts of active agents. The energy and water consumption is adjusted accordingly.

extraDry

The final rinse uses a higher temperature which improves the drying result. The running time may increase slightly. (Caution if utensils are delicate!) You can switch the extraDry function on or off.

Eco forecast

When Eco forecast is activated, the average water and energy consumption of the selected programme is briefly displayed on the display window at the top 4.

Cleaning and maintenance

A regular inspection and maintenance of your machine will help to prevent faults. This saves time and prevents problems.

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 30 with detergent.
2. Select the programme with the highest temperature.
3. Start the programme without dishes.

Warning Health hazard due to detergents containing chlorine! Always use chlorine-free detergents.

Notes

• Only clean the appliance with special detergents/appliance cleaners which are suitable for use with dishwashers.
• Regularly wipe the door seals using a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid. This will keep the door seal clean and hygienic.
• Leave the door open slightly if the appliance will not be used for a while. This will prevent an unpleasant odour from developing.
• Never clean the dishwasher using a steam cleaner. The manufacturer is not liable for any consequential damage.
• Wipe the front of the dishwasher and the control panel regularly using a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid.
• Do not use sponges with a rough surface or abrasive detergents. These could scratch the surface.
• For dishwashers with a stainless steel front, avoid using sponge cloths, or rinse these thoroughly several times before using them for the first time. This will prevent corrosion.

Machine Care [IMAGE]*

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.
