In daily use Loading cutlery and dishes 1 Sponges, cleaning cloths and any other objects that can absorb water must not be washed in the dishwasher. Plastic and Teflon-coated dishes and pans tend to retain water droplets. These dishes and pans therefore do not dry as well as those made of china and stainless steel.
Loading cutlery 1 Warning: Sharp knives and other items of cutlery with sharp edges must be laid in the cutlery rack or in the upper basket because of the risk of injury. Place knives, small spoons and small forks in the cutlery tray which is in the upper basket. Place forks and spoons that do not fit in the cutlery tray in the cutlery basket. To ensure that all items of cutlery in the cutlery basket can be reached by the water, you should: 1.Place the grid insert on the cut- 2.
The cutlery basket can be opened out. Always make sure that you put your hand around both parts of the twopart handle when removing it from the dishwasher. 1. Place the cutlery basket on a table or work surface. 2. Open out the two-part handle. 3. Remove cutlery. Pots, Pans, Large Plates Load larger and heavily soiled dishes and pans in the lower basket. (Max. diameter for plates 29 cm). To make it easier to load larger dishes, the two plate racks on the right in the lower basket can be folded down.
Cups, Glasses, Coffee Service Load smaller, fragile crockery and long, sharp cutlery in the upper basket. • Arrange items of crockery on and under the folding cup racks so that they are offset from each other and water can reach all items. • The cup racks can be folded up out of the way for tall crockery items. • Lay or hang wine and brandy glasses in the slots in the cup racks.
Adjusting the Height of the Upper Basket Maximum height of dishes in the 3 Upper basket Lower basket with upper basket raised 22 cm 30 cm with upper basket lowered 24 cm 29 cm The height of the baskets can also be adjusted when they are loaded. Raising/Lowering the Upper Basket 1. Pull out the upper basket completely. 2. Raise the upper basket as far as it will go and then lower it vertically. The upper basket will latch into the lower or the upper position.
Adding Detergent 1 Detergents remove the dirt from dishes and cutlery. The detergent must be added before the cycle starts. Only use detergent intended for domestic dishwashers. The detergent compartment is located on the inside of the door. 1. If the lid is closed: Press the release button. The lid will spring open. 3 18 2. Place the detergent in the detergent dispenser. The markings indicate the dosing levels for powder detergents: “20/30” corresponds to approx. 20/30 ml of detergent.
Concentrated detergents 2 Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet or powder form. Using 50°C dishwashing cycles in conjunction with these concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these dishwashing cycles are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in concentrated detergents.

Installation and connection instructions 1 Safety Information for the Installation • Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position, otherwise salt water may run out. • Before using the dishwasher for the first time, check for any damage caused in transport. Do not under any circumstances connect an appliance that is damaged. In the case of damage, please contact your supplier.
Installing the Dishwasher • The dishwasher must be installed on a firm floor and adjusted to ensure that it is stable and level in all directions. • To compensate for unevenness in the floor and to match the height of the appliance to that of surrounding units, extend the threaded feet using a screwdriver. • The drain hose, inlet hose and mains cable must be laid so that they are able to move freely within the plinth area, and so that they are not kinked or crushed when the dishwasher is in position.
Free-standing appliances 1 If the dishwasher is installed directly next to a cooker, a heat-insulating, non-flammable panel (laminated with aluminium foil on the side next to the cooker) must be fitted flush with the top edge of the work surface (depth 57.5 cm). If the appliance is built-in under a kitchen work surface, the worktop supplied with the dishwasher can be removed in the following way: 1. Unscrew the screws from the elbows at the rear (1). 2.
Connecting the dishwasher Connecting to the water supply • The dishwasher can be connected to cold and hot water supplies up to max. 60°C. • The dishwasher must not be connected to open hot water appliances or instantaneous water heaters. Permitted water pressure Lowest permitted water pressure: 1 bar (=10 N/cm2 =100 kPa) Consult your plumber if the water pressure is less than 1 bar.
Water drainage 1 Drain hose The drain hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled. Connecting the drain hose: – Maximum permitted height: 1 metre. – Minimum required height: 40 cm above the bottom edge of the appliance. Extension hoses • Extension hoses are available from your local Service Force Centre. To ensure that the function of the appliance is not impeded, the internal diameter of extension hoses must be 19 mm.
Anti-flood system For protection from water damage, the dishwasher is equipped with a anti-flood system. In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the water inlet hose immediately interrupts the supply of water to the appliance and the drain pump is activated. In this way water can neither escape nor overflow. The remaining water in the appliance is automatically pumped out.
1 • The wire coloured blue must be connected to the terminal “N“ or coloured black. • The wire coloured brown must be connected to the terminal marked “L“ or coloured red. • Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray strands of wire present and the cord clamp must be secure over the outer sheath. WARNING! A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that, if it is necessary to cut off the plug, it is disposed of safely and not retained.
