WARNING
This manual does not cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Common sense and caution should always be used when installing, operating, and maintaining any appliance.

  • Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
  • Dishwashers must be electrically grounded. Read the Installation Instructions for details.
  • Use the dishwasher only for its intended purpose.
  • Do not run the dishwasher while you are out of the home.
  • Use only automatic dishwasher detergents and rinse agents.
  • To reduce the risk of injury, keep detergents and rinse aids out of the reach of children.
  • Do not load sharp items near the door; you could damage the door seal.
  • Place sharp knives in the silverware basket with the sharp ends down to avoid the risk of cut-type injuries.
  • Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For items not marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations. Items not dishwasher safe could become deformed or melt and create a potential fire hazard.
  • Do not touch the heating element during or mediately after use.
  • Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place (i.e., guard plate, access panel, toe kick, etc.)
  • Do not tamper with controls by removing or changing.
  • Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the dish- washer door or baskets .
  • To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher.
  • Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for two weeks, before using the dishwasher turn on  all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
  • When removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it, remove the door to the washing compartment.
  • Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
  • Disconnect the electrical power to the dishwasher before servicing.
  • Repairs should be done by a qualified technician.
  • Read the grounding instructions in the installation instructions.

Child safety

Child safety tips
Dishwasher detergents and rinse aids are corrosive, so always keep them out of reach of children.

  • Should a child swallow dishwasher detergent or rinse aid, give plenty to drink immediately, i.e., one or two glasses of milk or water. Do not try to induce vomiting. Seek medical advice immediately: Call the National Capital Poison Center at 1-800-222-1222
  • Always close the door and start the dishwasher as soon as you put in the detergent.
  • Always keep small children away from the machine when it is open. There may be some detergent residue left inside the machine.
  • If dishwasher detergent gets in someone’s eyes, rinse them with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
  • Do not allow children to use or play in or on the dishwasher.
  • Load all long and sharp items in the knife/ utensil basket. If this is not possible, load sharp objects with the pointed end facing the back of the dishwasher. Sharp items loaded in the cutlery basket should be loaded with pointed ends down.
  • Engage the child safety lock.

Basic Course

Below are step-by-step instructions to help you achieve the best possible dishwashing results.

  1. Load the baskets correctly!
    Thanks to Self Cleaning System, you do not need to rinse the dishes under running water. Simply remove large food particles and debris. Convenient and environmentally-friendly!
    Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates, and saucers in the upper basket. Wine glasses should be hung from or leaned against the wine glass shelf and knives placed in the knife stand if present.
    Note!
    Ensure that all soiled surfaces face inwards or downwards!ASKO D5233
Dishwasher - Detergent Dispenser - Fig1Place dinner plates, side plates, serving dishes, saucepans, and cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket. The removable plate insert, which comes with certain models, can be easily removed to provide room for large plates, saucepans, and pots, or placed in three alternative positions.
    ASKO D5233 Dishwasher - Detergent Dispenser - Fig2Stand the cutlery with handles downward and as spread out as possible. Ensure that spoons are not resting inside each other.
    Do not put cutlery made of different materials – such as silver and stainless steel – in the same compartment (risk of stains). The cutlery basket has a folding flap in the middle for small items or narrow shafts, such as electric whisks. Place long cutlery and carving knives in the special knife box (if present) or in the upper basket.
    Check that the spray arms are able to move freely. See the section entitled Fragile Dishes if you want to wash objects that may be fragile.

  2. Dishwashing detergent
    We recommend that you use only unscented, granular automatic dishwashing detergent. Using the wrong detergent could cause flooding and/or damage your dishwasher. Do not use detergent that has been wet and is clumped. Also, check the expiration date on the container. The amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in water hardness. To determine the water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or area water softening company.
    The harder the water, the more detergent you may need. Refer to the chart below for the recommended detergent amounts based on water hardness. Remember, you should adjust the amount of detergent you use by small amounts until you find the correct amount.
    Twelve grains and higher is extremely hard water and detergent alone may not be enough. You may need to use a water softener to maximize the performance of your dishwasher. Also, in areas with hard water (9+) you may need to wash at lower temperatures to prevent hard water deposits from forming in tank and wash system. In hard water areas, both the dishes and the machine can develop a white or gray film after a while. This can be removed by replacing the prewash detergent with two tablespoons of citric acid. If the water is very hard, use a rinse aid that contains citric acid. Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of phosphorous for softening water. If you have hard water and use a detergent with less than 8.7% phosphorous content, you may need to use more detergent or use a detergent with more than 8.7% phosphorous content.
    NOTE:
    We recommend that you do not add prewash detergent for the Quick wash programs.
    NOTE: If you use a dishwashing detergent with a rinse aid additive, you should not fill the rinse aid dispenser. This could cause a film on your dishes.
    Dishwasher tablets
    Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser cover. There is a risk that the dishwasher detergent will not break down properly to give the correct dosage if the cover is tight and cannot be opened correctly. 3-in-1/ Multi-purpose detergent
    Note!
    Read the directions for use for such products carefully. If anything is unclear, contact the detergent manufacturer.

  3. Switch on the main switch

  4. Select program
    For select program see part Programs.

  5. Select option
    If you wish to use additional options continue to part Option. Otherwise you can now start the machine, see point 6.
    Recommended detergent amounts based on water hardness Water hardness| Detergent amounts
    ---|---
    Soft (0-3 grains per gallon)| Prewash 1 teaspoon
    Main wash 1 to 1-1/2 tablespoons
    Medium (4-8 grains per gallon)| Prewash 1 teaspoon
    Main wash 1 to 2 tablespoons
    hard (9+ grains*)| Prewash 1 teaspoon
    Main wash 2 to 3 tablespoons

  • 12 grains and higher is extremely hard water.
    6. Press start
    The dishwasher will now start. It manages the entire wash automatically.
    Ensure that the door is properly closed or the machine will not start.
    Changing program
    If you want to change program after having started the machine, press the Start/Stop button for three seconds. Then select a new program and press the Start/Stop button. Make sure there is detergent in the dispenser.
    Do you want to load more dishes?
    Carefully open the door; the machine will stops automatically, put in the dishes, close the door and the dishwasher will continue from where it left off.
    If the machine is switched off at the main switch (or in the event of a power cut) before the washing program has been completed, the interrupted program will continue when the power comes back on.
    Note!
    If the power is switched off, or if the door is open during drying, the program is interrupted.

    1. Standby mode

Once the machine has finished, it only draws standby current. Should you wish to disconnect the power completely, just switch off at the main power switch. Turn off the water faucet if the machine is not to be used for an extended period, such as during

vacations, for example.

Programs

Select a program by pressing the program selector one or more times until the required program symbol lights up. See the Program guide below.
Auto wash
The dishwasher detects how soiled the dishes are and adjusts water consumption and temperature accordingly.
Heavy wash
The Heavy Wash program should be used for heavily soiled dishes, e.g. saucepans, pots and gratin dishes. If there is still space in the machine after loading such items, you can add plates etc.
Normal wash
Used for washing normally soiled dishes such as plates, serving dishes, cups and glasses, etc.
Delicate wash
If the dishes are not heavily soiled, you can select Delicate wash. This program is intended for glass and china which has just been used and therefore does not need such a powerful program.
Quick wash
Select Quick Wash if the dishes are very lightly soiled. This program is used for very lightly soiled glass and china, e.g. coffee cups.
Rinse & Hold
For rinsing the dishes while waiting for the machine to be filled.

If the dishes are only lightly soiled you can run a Quick wash program and reduce the temperature to 86°F (30°C).
Select a program with Normal dry
To save energy, select Normal dry. You will get a better drying result if you leave the door slightly open after the end of the program.
Do not rinse before dishwashing
Thanks to the dishwasher’s Self Cleaning System (SCS) you do not need to rinse the dishes under running water before loading them into the machine.
Choose environmentally-friendly dishwasher detergent
Read environmental declarations on the package!
Connect to cold water supply
For best performance it is recommended that connection is to cold water.

Fragile dishes

A number of household goods are not suitable for machine washing.  This can be due to a variety of reasons.
Certain materials cannot withstand intense heat; others can be damaged by the dishwasher detergent.
Fragile decoration
China with decoration on top of the glaze (the goods have a rough feel) should not be machine washed.
Crystal/ glass
Place the goods so that they do not knock together during the wash. Use the lowest possible wash temperature and the shortest possible program. Do not heat dry! Antique and very fragile items should not be machine washed.
Glass which is machine washed at high temperatures can in time develop a grey film which cannot be removed. Wash fine glass at the lowest temperature and with a low dosage of dishwasher detergent.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact with each other as the silver can discolor.
Cutlery with glued handles
Certain types of adhesive cannot withstand machine washing. In such cases the handles can come loose.
Wood
Wooden items should only be machine washed if they are labeled as dishwasher safe.
Aluminum
Aluminum can be dulled by machine washing. However, good quality aluminum saucepans can be machine washed, although a reduction in luster should be expected.
Plastic
Certain types of plastic cannot withstand the high temperature generated in machine dishwashing.
Protect plastic goods
Select a program with a low temperature.

Cleaning

The dishwasher tub is made of stainless steel and is kept clean through normal use.
However, if you have hard water, limescale deposits may form in the machine.
If this happens, run an empty machine with a normal wash program with two tablespoons of citric acid in the dishwasher detergent compartment.

Coarse filter
The coarse filter traps larger food particles which cannot get past the drain pump.
Empty the coarse filter as necessary.

  1. Lift the coarse filter by the handle.
  2. Empty the coarse filter. Don’t forget to replace it!

Fine filter
Debris that collects on the fine filter is auto magically rinsed away during each wash. However, the fine filter and its pipe section should be cleaned once or twice a year.

  1. Turn the handle once counter-clockwise2. Lift the pipe section straight up by the handle. Free the coarse filter to clean the pipe section.
  2. Remove and clean the fine filter.
  3. Replace in reverse order. Ensure that the edges are properly sealed when replacing the fine filter.
  4. Lock the filter in place by turning the handle clockwise to the stop position: the handle should point out from the dishwasher.

NOTE:
The dishwasher must not be used without the filter in place!
An improperly fitted coarse filter may affect the dishwashing result!
Drain pump
The pump can be accessed from inside the machine.

  1. Cut the power to the machine by pulling out the plug!
  2. Remove the coarse filter and pipe section.
  3. Remove the small fitted piece at the left of the bottom drain (see the image below).ASKO D5233 Dishwasher - Detergent Dispenser - Drain pump
  4. You can release and turn the pump blade by inserting your finger into the hole and release anything blocking it.
  5. Reinstall the fitted piece and filters.
  6. Plug the plug into the wall socket.

ASKO D5233 Dishwasher - Detergent Dispenser - socket

If the machine still does not start and a buzzing sound is heard, the overflow guard has been activated.

  • Shut off the water.
  • Pull the plug out from the wall socket.
  • Call the service division.

NOTE!
Do not forget to reinstall the fitted piece.

ASKO D5233 Dishwasher - Detergent Dispenser - socket1

The spray arms
Holes and bearings can sometimes become blocked.

  1. Pull the lower washer arm straight up to release it.
  2. Remove any deposits using a needle or similar.
    The washer arms also have holes under Neath.

To release the upper spray arm, the upper basket must be removed.

  1. Pull out the basket.
  2. Remove the upper spray arm by unscrewing it counter-clockwise from the basket and clean it.
  3. Screw the spray arm back into place.

Door
When cleaning the edge around the door, use only a slightly damp cloth, possibly with a little detergent. Do not use a spray bottle or similar around the door catch. This is to ensure that water does not penetrate into the door catch and come into contact with
the electrical components.

ASKO D5233 Dishwasher - Detergent Dispenser - Door

CAUTION!
Do not use a spray bottle or similar around the door catch.
Tip!
In order to prevent bad odours in the dishwasher, clean the strips and corners with a dish brush and low-lather detergent.

Rinse aid

Adding rinse aid
In some cases, drying can be made more efficient by using rinse aid.
Machines with indicator on the panel When the rinse aid has run out and more is needed, the rinse aid symbol on the panel lights up*.
To fill with rinse aid:

  1. Turn and lift up the cover of the rinse aid compartment to the right of the dispenser. This is where you top up and set the amount of rinse aid to be dispensed in each wash.
  2. Carefully pour in rinse aid up to the dos age setting knob. Alter dosage if required. Do not forget to close the cover.

*Note!
After filling there may be a short delay before the signal light goes out.
Machines with refill indicator in detergent dispenser
There is a refill indicator in the middle of the dispenser (see illustration). If the refill indicator is totally black, there is sufficient rinse aid.
However, if the indicator has a more transparent appearance, you need to top up with rinse aid (see above).

Select dosage
The dispenser is usually set at 1= soft water. However, depending on the water hardness, you may need to change the dosage.
Open the rinse aid cover. Here you will find the dispenser’s adjustment dial. Settings 1-6: the harder the water, the higher the dosage. When the water hardness exceeds 3 grains, you should use rinse aid with citric acid (acid rinse aid).
Too much rinse aid can lead to the buildup of foam. If your water is particularly soft, you can dilute the rinse aid (1 part rinse aid, 1 part water).
Too much rinse aid can cause streaks on the dishes, while too little can result in water stains.

Settings

Reprogramming
Some of the machine’s functions can be reprogrammed. You get into the machine’s change program using the machine’s ordinary buttons as per the instructions below. The selection will be retained until the next time you reset this function.
Even if the machine is turned off at the main switch or loses power for any other reason, all selections registered before the interruption of power will be retained.
Child-safe button lock
You can prevent a child starting the machine by accident or changing the settings by programming the machine with a button lock, which requires the Temperature and Drying buttons to be pressed simultaneously to start up the machine. The button lock will
automatically be reactivated after three minutes.
