Brief instructions
- Detergent compartment
- Rinse aid reservoir
- Salt reservoir
- Filter combination
Filling the salt reservoir
- Remove the lower basket from the wash cabinet and unscrew the salt reservoir cap.
Damage to the water softener from detergents. Dishwasher detergent will damage the water softener. Do not fill the salt reservoir with powder or liquid detergent.
Risk of corrosion due to saline solution. Water or saline solution will run out of the reservoir when the cap is opened. Saline solution that runs out can cause corrosion in the wash cabinet and to the dishwasher load. The salt reservoir should therefore only be opened to replenish the salt.
- Fill the salt reservoir with approx. 2 l of water (first use only).
- Place the funnel provided over the salt reservoir and carefully fill with dishwasher salt until the reservoir is full.
- Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening and then screw the salt reservoir cap on again firmly.
- Immediately after filling the salt container, run the QuickPowerWash
65 °C programme with the
Express option and without any load in the dishwasher to dissolve and remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.
Adding rinse aid
- Lift the yellow catch on the lid of the rinse aid container
- Only fill with rinse aid until the fill level indicator (see arrow) turns dark when the door is open horizontally.
- Close the lid making sure it clicks into place.
- Wipe up any spilled rinse aid. This prevents over-foaming occurring during the next programme.

Risk of damage due to steam. Steam from the dishwasher could damage the edges of delicate worktops when you open the door at the end of the programme if the fan is no longer running.
