If there is a fault, first turn the water tap off. Then switch off your machine and pull the plug out of the socket. If there is a fixed connection, switch off or unscrew the fuse(s). Never pull the plug out of the socket by the cable - always hold the plug.
152985 84/2 21-02-2002 10:17 Pagina 6 Disposing of packaging and old machines Disposing of the packaging Our dishwashers require effective protective packaging in transit, though we always confine ourselves to what is absolutely necessary. Warning! Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for children and can cause suffocation. You should therefore keep all packaging well away from children. All packaging materials used are environmentally compatible and reusable.

152985 84/2 21-02-2002 10:17 Pagina 12 Filling with special salt Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really is salt. Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
152985 84/2 21-02-2002 10:17 Pagina 13 The rinse-aid The rinse-aid ensures brilliant crockery and also helps it to dry. It is automatically dosed in during the hot rinsing cycle.

152985 84/2 21-02-2002 10:17 Pagina 16 Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard.

152985 84/2 21-02-2002 10:17 Pagina 17 Adjusting the height of the upper basket If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.

152985 84/2 21-02-2002 10:17 Pagina 19 Remember that insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor washing results whereas an excessive amount of detergent does not improve washing results and is also wasteful. Using no more than the correct amount of detergent also contributes to reducing pollution.
