Before washing for the first time

1. Water hardness
   In order to achieve good dishwashing results, the dishwasher needs soft water (water with low mineral content). Hard water leaves a white coating on dishes and the dishwasher.
   Checking water hardness
   Water hardness is specified using German degrees of water hardness (°dH), French degrees of water hardness (°fH), English degrees of water hardness (°eH) or millimoles per litre (mmol/l).
   A water supply with a water hardness in excess of 5°dH (9°fH / 6°eH / 0.9 mmol/l) must be softened.
   This is done automatically with the aid of the built-in water softener. In order for the water softener to function properly, its settings must be adjusted to the hardness of the water supply. Once you have adjusted the water softener settings, add detergent and rinse aid in doses suitable for soft water.
   Contact the local waterworks to check the water hardness in your area.
   Make a note of the water hardness:____ °dH| °fH| °eH| mmol/l| Recommended setting
   ---|---|---|---|---
   0-5| 0-9| 0-6| 0.0-0.9| 4:00
   6-8| 10-14| 7-10| 1.0-1.4| 4:01
   9-11| 15-20| 11-14| 1.5-2.0| 4:02
   12-14| 21-25| 15-18| 2.1-2.5| 4:03
   15-19| 26-34| 19-24| 2.6-3.4| 4:04
   20-24| 35-43| 25-30| 3.5-4.3| 4:05
   25-29| 44-52| 31-36| 4.4-5.2| 4:06
   30-39| 53-70| 37-49| 5.3-7.0| 4:07
   40-49| 71-88| 50-61| 7.1-8.8| 4:08
   50| 89| 62| 8.9| 4:09

If the water hardness exceeds 50°dH (89°fH / 62°eH / 8.9 mmol/l), we recommend connecting an external water softener.
Increased consumption during regeneration
The dishwasher’s built-in water softener is regularly regenerated to maintain its function. Regeneration extends the dishwashing program and increases energy and water consumption. Just how often the dishwasher’s water softener is regenerated depends on the selected setting.
Example: If the Eco 55° program is run with a water hardness of 14°dH (25°fH / 18°eH / 2.5 mmol/l),  the water softener is regenerated at regular intervals (after 5 dishwashing cycles), energy consumptionincreases by 0.015 kWh, and water consumption increases by 2.3 litres, while the program time is extended by 3 minutes. Regeneration takes place during the program’s main wash.
WARNING!
Hard water leaves a white coating on dishes and inside the dishwasher. It is therefore important that you select the right setting for the water softener! See Water hardness in the chapter Settings.
Never run the dishwasher with an empty salt compartment if the water supply has a water hardness in excess of 5°dH (9°fH / 6°eH / 0.9 mmol/l).

2. Basic settings
   The first time the dishwasher is switched on, it is important that you choose the right settings to ensure good dishwashing results. See page 19.
   Set up:
   • Rinse aid
   • Water hardness
   • TAB (All-in-one detergent)

3. Top up with rinse aid
   
   Drying is faster and a better result is achieved if you use rinse aid. You will also achieve a better dishwashing result with clear and spotless dishes.
   Top up the rinse aid compartment with rinse aid if you have selected Rinse aid 3:01 – 3:05.
   1. Open the rinse aid compartment lid.
   2. Carefully top up with rinse aid to the level marked MAX.
   3. Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the compartment.
   4. Close the lid firmly.
   When the rinse aid needs topping up, the symbol lights on the display.

4. Top up with salt
   
   For a water supply with a hardness above 5 °dH (9 °fH / 6 °eH / 0.9 mmol/l), fill with salt.
   Add salt to the salt compartment if you have selected Water hardness 4:01 – 4:09.
   1. Remove the salt compartment lid by turning it anticlockwise.
   2. Place the funnel supplied with the dishwasher in the salt compartment top- up hole. Before washing for the first time, pour in about 1 l of water. (Water is only needed the first time.)
   3. Add enough salt to fill the salt compartment (max. 750 gram). Use special dishwasher salt.
   4. Wipe away excess salt and turn the lid clockwise until in the closed position.
   When the salt needs topping up, the symbol lights on the display.
   WARNING!
   In order to avoid rust stains a dishwashing program must be started immediately after adding salt.

Greener dishwashing

Save energy and water
When using a dishwasher in a residential setting, less energy and water are generally used compared to washing the dishes by hand.
Do not rinse under running water
Do not rinse the dishes under running water as this will lead to increased energy and water consumption.
Simply scrape off large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
Choose a green detergent
Read the environmental declaration on the packaging!
Too much detergent, rinse aid and salt can result in less effective dishwashing and also entail greater environmental impact.
Run a fully loaded dishwasher
Save energy and water by waiting until the dishwasher is full before running a program (see number of standard place settings). Use the 1h 65° program with the Speed wash option to rinse the dishes if there are any unpleasant odours.
Run programs at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select a program with a low temperature.
Select dishwashing program – Eco 55°
This program is suitable for washing normally soiled dishes and is the most effective program in terms of combined energy and water consumption. This program is used to assess compliance with EU legislation on ecodesign.
The dishwashing program is designed for an effective wash using as little energy and water as possible.
The program washes at a low temperature for a long time.
Activate the setting – Auto Dry
A shorter dishwashing program and better drying results are achieved if you activate the Auto Dry setting, which automatically opens the dishwasher door. Wait until the dishwasher indicates that the program has ended and the dishes have cooled before unloading the dishwasher. (If the dishwasher is built-in, the surrounding furnishings must be resistant to any condensation from the dishwasher.)
Connect to cold water
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is heated using oil, electricity or gas.
Connect to hot water
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 70 °C) if the building is heated using an energy-efficient means such as district heating, solar power or geothermal power. Choosing a hot water connection reduces the dishwasher’s energy consumption.

NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware cannot withstand high heat. See Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.

Loading the dishwasher

Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several reasons. Some materials cannot withstand high heat, others can be damaged by dishwasher detergent.
Exercise caution with, for example, handmade items, fragile decoration, crystal/glassware, silver, copper, tin, aluminium, wood and plastic. Look for the “Dishwasher safe” marking.

Loading affects the results
Load the dishes carefully to ensure the best washing and drying results with the lowest possible energy and water consumption. Give your dishwasher the best chance to reach and clean all surfaces, as well as to dry the dishes as thoroughly as possible.

• All dirty surfaces should face inwards and downwards!
• Dishes should not be placed in or on each other.
• Angle dishes with hollows, such as cups, so that the rinse water will run off. This is also important for plastic items.
• Make sure small items cannot fall through the dishwasher basket; place them in the top cutlery tray.

The dishwasher’s baskets
The dishwasher is equipped with a top cutlery tray, an upper basket and a lower basket.
The appearance of the baskets may differ depending on the dishwasher setup.
WARNING!
Be careful with fully loaded dishwasher baskets. Push the baskets in to avoid risking the dishwasher tipping over.
Top cutlery tray
The top cutlery tray has space for cutlery, ladles, whisks, serving cutlery and similar items.

The top cutlery tray is comprised of three parts that can be moved sideways to better accommodate the dishes.
Upper basket
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates and saucers in the upper basket. All dirty surfaces should face inwards and downwards! Wine glasses are placed on the wine glass shelf and knives are placed in the knife stand on the right.

Raising and lowering the upper basket

1. Pull out the upper basket.
2. Grab the sides of the upper basket with both hands and lift it up.
3. If the upper basket is raised while in the top position, it will drop to the bottom position.
   Note that both sides of the basket must always be set to the same height.

Lower basket
Place plates, side plates, serving dishes and pots in the lower basket. Cutlery can be placed in the cutlery holder.

Adjustable plate supports
The adjustable plate supports can be folded down to make it easier to load pots and bowls.

NOTE!
Check that the spray arms can rotate freely.

Using the dishwasher

Add detergent
Follow the instructions on the detergent packaging. This dishwasher is fitted with a water softener, so use detergent and rinse aid doses suitable for soft water.
Too much detergent can result in less effective dishwashing and also entails greater environmental impact.
Detergent compartment
The detergent compartment must be dry when adding detergent.

If powder or liquid dishwasher detergent is used, add a small amount of the detergent to the compartment for prewash detergent.
NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Washing up liquid must not be used as the foam that forms prevents the dishwasher from operating effectively.
All-in-one detergent
There are many types of all-in-one detergents on the market. Read through the directions for these products carefully.
Activate the TAB setting when using an all-in-one detergent that contains rinse aid.
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programs (less than 75 minutes). Use powder or liquid dishwasher detergent instead.
NOTE!
Optimal washing and drying results are achieved by using normal detergent together with separately dispensed rinse aid and salt.
Contact the detergent manufacturer if you have questions about the detergent.

NOTE!
The control panel only reacts to use when the door is closed.
On/Off
Close the door properly, otherwise the dishwasher will not start. Press . Also turn on the water tap if it is turned off.
P Select program
Select a program to suit the type of dishes and how dirty they are. Eco 55° is always pre-selected.
Press one or more times until the desired program is activated, which is indicated by an indicator light.
Eco Eco 55°
This program is suitable for washing normally soiled dishes and is the most effective program in terms of combined energy and water consumption. This program is used to assess compliance with EU legislation on ecodesign.
You can read more about greener dishwashing in the chapter Greener dishwashing.
For heavily soiled dishes with a lot of grease, a program with higher temperatures should be used.
Auto 45-65°
The dishwasher can measure how dirty the dishes are and adjust water consumption and temperature accordingly. When newly installed, the program needs to be run five times before it is fully adapted and can provide the best results.
1h 65°
A quick program for slightly dried leftovers. (This program is not intended for burnt food, such as on oven dishes.)
The Auto Dry option is important for ensuring the best drying results.
Intensive 70°
A program with a high temperature for dissolving grease on very dirty dishes, such as pans, casserole dishes and oven dishes. If these dishes do not completely fill the dishwasher, you can add plates and other dishes.
Glass 40°
A gentle dishwashing program with a low temperature for washing fragile items made of crystal/glass. Remember to use a small amount of detergent and to place items so that they do not touch each other during the wash. See also Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher. Porcelain that has just been used without dried leftovers can also be washed using this program.
Hygiene 70°
This program is ideal to use where demands on hygiene are extra high, e.g. for baby bottles and cutting boards. The temperature is high both in the main wash and in the final rinse.
Self-clean 3 sec Self-clean
Self-cleaning program for hygienic cleaning of the dishwasher tub, spray arms and spray pipes. This program should be run (with no dishes in the machine) using normal dishwasher detergent or citric acid. Special dishwasher cleaners are also available on the market.

Installation

Safety instructions

• Connections to electricity, water and drainage must be performed by a qualified professional.
• Always follow applicable regulations for water, drainage and electricity.
• Take care during installation! Wear protective gloves! There must always be two people!
• Place a drip tray on the floor beneath the dishwasher to prevent damage from any water leaks.
• Before screwing the dishwasher into place, test the dishwasher by running the 1h 65° program with the Speed wash option. Check that the dishwasher fills with water and drains. Check also that none of the connections leak.

WARNING!
Turn off the water supply when installing the dishwasher!
The plug must be disconnected or power to the socket turned off while the work is carried out!
Transport protection for the door

Do not forget to remove the transport protection for the door when unpacking the dishwasher.
Placing the dishwasher
The dishwasher can be installed under a worktop or freestanding. Make sure the area on which the dishwasher is to be installed is firm.
Adjust the height and slide the dishwasher into place

Freestanding

• Make sure the area on which the dishwasher is to be installed is firm. Adjust the dishwasher’s height using the four feet so that the dishwasher is level. Also check that the dishwasher door can be opened freely and is centred in the tub opening.

Built-in

1. Start by measuring the height from the floor to the bottom edge of the worktop.

2. Measure the height from the floor to the top edge of the dishwasher.

3. Adjust the dishwasher’s feet by turning them clockwise to raise or anticlockwise to lower the machine.

4.  Check that there is an air gap of at least 3 mm between the underside of the worktop and the top edge of the dishwasher.

5.  Slide the dishwasher into place.
   • Pull the supply and drainage hoses and the power cable when sliding the dishwasher into place.
   • Check that the drainage hose has no kinks or sharp bends. Also check that there is nothing that can damage the hoses.
   • Check that the machine is installed such that the door opens freely, otherwise door lock functionality may be disrupted.

6. Make any final adjustments to the front feet.
   The dishwasher can also be installed in a recess without its worktop. See Remove dishwasher worktop.

Drainage connection

The drainage hose may be extended by a maximum of 3 m (the total length of the drainage hose must not exceed 4.5 m). Any joints and connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm.
No part of the drainage hose may be more than 950 mm above the bottom of the dishwasher. The hose must not be routed directly to a floor drain or the like. In such cases, the hose can act as a siphon and empty the dishwasher.
The hose must always discharge at least 350 mm above the bottom of the machine.
Attach the drainage hose with a hose clamp. Ensure that the drainage hose has no kinks.
NOTE!
When the drainage hose is routed to a connection nipple on the sink unit’s water trap, the hose must be attached at the same height as the underside of the worktop (1), otherwise dishwater from the sink may flow back into the dishwasher. There are other connection alternatives (2, 3).
The water trap must be ventilated.

Connection to water supply
Use only the inlet hose supplied with the dishwasher. Do not re-use old or other spare hoses.
The supply pipe must be fitted with a water tap (stopcock). The water tap must be easily accessible, so that the water can be shut off if the dishwasher has to be moved.
Once the installation is complete, turn on the water tap and allow the pressure to settle for a while.
Check that all connections are watertight.
Connection to cold water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is heated using oil, electricity or gas.
Connection to hot water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 70 °C) if the building is heated using an energy-efficient means such as district heating, solar power or geothermal power. Choosing a hot water connection reduces the dishwasher’s energy consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware cannot withstand high heat. See Fragile dishes in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Electrical connection
Information about the electrical connection can be found on the serial number plate. This specification must match the electricity supply.
The dishwasher must be connected to an earthed socket.
The electric wall socket must be placed outside of the installation area to be easily accessible after installing the dishwasher. Do not use an extension cord!
Fit the sound insulation
(only certain models)

Remove dishwasher worktop

The dishwasher can be installed in a recess without its worktop. If the dishwasher’s worktop is removed, the dishwasher must be installed under a separate worktop.
