Safe installation
Follow the instructions when installing the appliance. ATTENTION! ¡ Improper installation of the appli-
ance may cause damage. If the dishwasher is installed
above or below other domestic appliances, follow the information on installation in combination with a dishwasher in the installation instructions for the individual appliances. If there is no information or if the installation instructions do not include the relevant information, contact the manufacturer of these appliances to check that the dishwasher can be installed above or below these appliances. If no information is available from the manufacturer, the dishwasher should not be installed above or below such appliances. To ensure the safe operation of all domestic appliances, continue following the installation instructions for the dishwasher. Do not install the dishwasher under a hob. Do not install the dishwasher near heat sources, e.g. radiators, heat storage tanks, ovens or other appliances that generate heat. ¡ Modified or damaged water hoses may result in material damage and damage to the appliance. Never kink, crush, modify or cut through water hoses. 10

Only use the water hoses supplied with the appliance or genuine spare hoses.
Never re-use water hoses that have been used before.
¡ If the water pressure is too high or too low, the appliance may not be able to operate properly. Make sure that the water pressure in the water supply system is min. 50 kPa (0.5 bar) and max. 1000 kPa (10 bar). If the water pressure exceeds the maximum value specified, a pressure-reducing valve must be installed between the drinking water connection and the hose set of the appliance.
Safe use
Follow the instructions when using the appliance. ATTENTION! ¡ Escaping water vapour can dam-
age fitted units. When the programme ends,
leave the appliance to cool down for a while before opening the door. ¡ Special salt for dishwashers can damage the tub due to corrosion.

Environmental protection Environmentalprotectionandsavingenergy and saving energy
Environmental protection and saving energy
Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled. Sort the individual components by
type and dispose of them separately.
Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less electricity and less water. Use the Eco 50 ° programme.
The Eco 50 ° programme is energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. “Programmes”, Page 17 If you do not have much tableware to wash, use the additional Half Load function.1 The programme will adjust to a lower load and consumption will be reduced. “Additional functions”, Page 19

AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical measuring 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 water 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 additionally adjusted to the level of soiling.

Detergent Detergent
Find Detergent out which detergents are suitable 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 results, use separate detergent, adding “Special salt” Page 24 and “Rinse aid” Page 25 separately.

Modern, powerful detergents mainly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes. Enzymes break down starch and remove protein. Oxygenbased bleaching agents are generally used to remove coloured marks, e.g. tea or ketchup. Note: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for each detergent.

Detergent Tabs
Powder detergent Liquid detergent

Description Tabs are suitable for all cleaning functions and do not need to be measured out. With shorter “Programmes” Page 17 tabs sometimes do not dissolve entirely and leave residues of detergent. This may impair the cleaning effect. Powder detergent is recommended for shorter “Programmes” Page 17. The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling. Liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for shorter “Programmes” Page 17 without PreRinse. Sometimes liquid detergent may leak out despite the detergent dispenser being closed. This is not a fault and is non-critical if you remember the following: ¡ Only choose a pro-
gramme without PreRinse. ¡ Do not select timer programming for starting the programme.
The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.

Detergenten
Tip: Suitable detergents are available online via our website or from “Customer Service” Page 54.
Separate detergents Separate detergents are products that do not contain components other than detergent, e.g. powder detergent or liquid detergent. With powder and liquid detergent the dosage can be individually adjusted to the level of soiling of the tableware. For better washing and drying results and to avoid damage to the appliance, please additionally use “Special salt” Page 24 and “Rinse aid” Page 25.
Combined detergent Besides conventional separate detergents, a number of products are available with additional functions. These products contain not only detergent but also rinse aid and salt replacement substances (3in1) and, depending on the combination (4in1, 5in1, …), additional components such as glass protection or stainless steel cleaner. According to manufacturers, combined detergents generally only function 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 water hardness of 17 °E. If you are using combined detergent, the washing programme is adjusted automatically to ensure the best possible washing and drying result.

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 completely dispense with certain substances. 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, combined detergents with salt replacement substances can only be used up to a certain water hardness, usually 26 °E, without adding special salt. For the best washing and drying results we recommend using special salt from a water hardness of 17 °E. ¡ To prevent sticking, only touch detergents 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, washing 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 detergent dispenser.
50 ml 25 ml 15 ml
If you are using tablets, one is enough. Insert the tablets in a horizontal position. If you are using powder or liquid detergent, follow the manufacturer’s instructions and quantities for dosage in the detergent dispenser. 20 ml 25 ml detergent is sufficient for normal soiling. If tableware is only lightly soiled, slightly less than the amount of detergent specified is usually sufficient.

3. Close the lid of the detergent dispenser.
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.
Tableware Tableware
Only Tableware clean tableware that is suitable for dishwashers. Note: Decorated glassware and parts made of aluminium or silver may fade or discolour with dishwashing. Delicate types of glass may turn cloudy after a few washing cycles.

Arrange tableware
Arrange tableware correctly to optimise the dishwashing result and prevent damage to both the appliance and tableware. Tips ¡ Using the appliance allows you to
save energy and water compared to washing-up by hand. ¡ See our website for examples of how to load your appliance efficiently, free of charge. ¡ To save energy and water, load the machine with the number of place settings specified. “Technical specifications”, Page 55 ¡ For better washing and drying results, position items with curves or recesses at an angle so water can run off.

To save resources, do not prerinse tableware under running water. 2. Observe the following when arranging tableware: Put heavily soiled tableware in
the bottom basket, e.g. pans. The more powerful the spray jet, the better the dishwashing result will be. To prevent damage to tableware, arrange it so it is stable and cannot tip over. To prevent injury, arrange cutlery with the points and sharp edges facing down. Position containers with the openings facing down so no water 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 detergent dispenser.

1. Remove large remnants of food from your tableware.
