Operating Instructions OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1 Safety Instructions The safety aspects of AEG electrical appliances comply with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. Nevertheless, as a manufacturer we consider it our obligation to make you aware of the following safety information: Installation, Connection and Placing into Operation • The dishwasher may only be transported upright. • Check the dishwasher for transport damage.
Operating Instructions • Never place the dishwasher in operation if the mains cable, water inlet or drain hose is damaged; or the control panel, work top or plinth area is damaged such that the inside of the appliance is freely accessible. • If the mains lead is damaged, or is to be replaced for a longer lead, the cable (obtainable from AEG Service Force) must be replaced by a service engineer authorised by AEG. • Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable, always pull the plug.
Operating Instructions • In the event of a fault, first close the tap, then switch off the appliance and unplug it from the mains. If the appliance is permanently wired to the mains: remove the fuse. 2 Disposal Disposing of the Packaging Material Dispose of the dishwasher packaging material correctly.

Operating Instructions Control panel Function Softener Button Button Door Handle Set Start Delay Indicators Multi-Display Control Field The Control Field comprises the ON/OFF switch and the programme buttons with LED indicators. Softener and Function Button: in addition to the wash program marked, it is also possible to adjust the dishwasher's water softener using the combination of these buttons. The Multi-Display can display, – the hardness setting to which the water softener is set.
Operating Instructions Adjust the Water Softener To avoid the scale deposits on the dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft, i.e. low lime content, water. The dishwasher therefore has a built-in water softener, in which tap water from a hardness of 4 °d (German degree) is softened with the aid of special salt. 3 0 You water supplier will be able to inform you on the hardness and hardness range of the water in your area.
Operating Instructions 6. When the hardness setting is correct, press the ON/OFF switch. The hardness setting is then saved. Filling with Salt for the Water Softener 1 Use only special salt for dishwashers. Never fill the salt container with any another type of salt (e.g. culinary salt) or dishwasher detergent, as this would irreparably damage the water softener. Prior to filling with salt, please check each time that you really do have a packet of dishwasher salt in your hand.
Operating Instructions Depending on the size of the salt grains, it can take several hours for the salt to dissolve in the water and for the SALT indicator to extinguish. The setting of the water softener and thus the consumption of salt are dependent on the hardness of the local water. 3 Filling with Rinse Aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, spot and streak free drying. 1 Only use rinse aid specifically designed for domestic dishwashers.

Depending on the design of the threaded feet use either – an open-end spanner or – a screwdriver.
Installation and Connection Instructions • Depending on type, the dishwasher is to be installed as follows: Dishwashers That Can Be Integrated (see installation template supplied) 3 The door of the appliance can be fitted with a wooden/facing panel with the following dimensions: Width: 591 – 594 mm Thickness: 16 – 24 mm Height: (variable) dependent on – Aperture height – Plinth height – The adjustment so that the unit matches the height of the adjoining units The exact height of the adjoining unit
Installation and Connection Instructions • If the dishwasher is installed underneath a kitchen work surface, the original work surface of the dishwasher is to be removed as follows: – Unscrew the screws (1) from the elbows on the back side. – Slide the work surface approx. 1cm to the rear (3) , lift at the front (4) and remove. – Press the work surface retaining brackets at the position shown in the diagram (4) and remove the bracket at an angle to the rear (5).
