Energy saving washing

This dishwasher is exceptionally economical in the use of water and electricity. For best results follow these tips: ^ For lowest energy consumption you may connect the dishwasher to a cold water source. ^ For fastest possible wash times, with slightly higher energy consumption, connect the dishwasher to a hot water source. ^ Make full use of the baskets without overloading for the most economical washing. ^ Use the correct amount of detergent and rinse aid. Detergent dosage is dependent upon the amount of soiling and type of dishware being washed. See the "Program Guide" for more information. ^ When using powder or gel detergent, reduce the amount to 2/3 of the normal amount when washing a small load. ^ Choose a program that best suits the degree of soiling and the type of dishes being washed. ^ For small loads select "Express".
Before using for the first time
To open the door Child Safety Lock
^ Press the release catch inside the door grip. If the door is opened during operation, the dishwasher will stop running. Once the door is closed the program will restart.
The Child Safety Lock is designed to prevent children from opening the dishwasher. ^ To lock the door, push the slider below the door grip to the right. ^ To unlock the door, push the slider to the left.

Water softener

Every dishwasher is tested before leaving the factory. Any water remaining in the machine is from the final factory test and does not indicate that the machine has been used. To achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs soft water. Hard water results in calcium deposits on dishware and in the dishwasher. If your tap water hardness is above 4 d (4 gr/gal [US]), the water should be softened. The water softener must be filled with dishwasher salt for reactivation. If using "Tab" products which include salt, you should still add salt to the machine to achieve optimal cleaning results. Your local water authority will be able to advise you of the water hardness level in your area. The dishwasher must be programmed to correspond to the water hardness in your area. If the hardness of your local supply is constantly lower than 4 d (4 gr/gal [US]), you do not need to add water softener salt. However the water hardness level must still be programmed. In areas where the water hardness fluctuates (example 37 - 50 d [gr/gal]) always program the machine to the higher value (in this example 50 d [52 gr/gal] ). If there is a fault, it will help the service technician to know the hardness of your local water supply. ^ Please note your water hardness:: d (gr/gal) The water hardness was programmed to 15 d (16 gr/gal) by factory default

,Filling the rinse aid reservoir with detergent will damage the reservoir. Only pour rinse aid formulated for residential dishwashers into the reservoir.
When using "Tab" detergents rinse aid is not needed. ^ Pour liquid rinse aid into the reservoir until it is visible on the surface of the screen. The rinse aid reservoir holds approx. 3.7 oz (110 ml). ^ Press on the flap until you hear it click shut. Failure to close it all the way allows water to enter the reservoir during the wash program. ^ Clean any spilled rinse aid. The flap will remain closed during normal operation.

Adding rinse aid

^ Press the button in the direction of the arrow until the flap springs open.

Rinse aid indicator

When the rinse aid indicator first comes on, there will be enough rinse aid left for 2 - 3 washes. ^ The rinse aid indicator on the control panel will light when the rinse aid reservoir needs refilling. If the "Tab" function is selected, the rinse aid indicator will not light, see "Additional options - Tab".

Adjusting the dosage

The dosage selector is preset to 3. This dispenses approximately 3 ml of rinse aid per program. It can be adjusted from 0 to 6. Use a higher setting if spots appear on dry glassware. Use a lower setting if streaking appears on dishes or glasses. ^ Turn the dishwasher off "s". ^ Press and hold the "Start/Stop" button and at the same time turn the dishwasher on "s". Hold the "Start/Stop" button until the "Start/Stop" indicator comes on. If it does not come on, start over. ^ Press the "Delay Start" button three times. The "Delay Start" indicator flashes 3 times in intervals. The time display shows "p 3". A rinse aid amount of 3 ml is selected (factory default setting). The set value is shown in the time display after the "p". ^ Select the desired setting with the "Start/Stop" button. Every touch of the button adjusts the level. The programmed dosage is saved. ^ Turn the dishwasher off "s".
Loading the dishwasher ,Do not wash items soiled with
^ The spray arms must not be blocked by items that are too tall or hang through the baskets. Check clearance by manually rotating the spray arms. ^ Place very small items in the cutlery tray or basket so they do not fall to the bottom of the wash cabinet. ^ Food residue and spilled liquids should be cleaned from the sides of the dishwasher door. These are outside of the wash cabinet and are not cleaned by water from the spray arms.

Split cutlery tray

^ Arrange the cutlery as shown in the cutlery tray. For easier unloading cutlery should be grouped in zones, one for knives, one for forks, one for spoons, etc. Place knives with the cutting edge and forks with the prongs between the holders. Spoons should be placed in the opposite direction with the handles between the holders. The upper spray arm must not be blocked by tall cutlery items. The inserts of the cutlery tray can be removed. Single inserts can be removed to make room for tall items in the upper basket.
Spoons with thick handles may have to be placed as knives and forks with their heads in the holders.

Upper basket

Removing the insert a: ^ To remove an insert, gently pull up on the handle. Replacing the insert b: ^ Slide the hitches of the insert under the horizontal struts of the upper basket. ^ Push down on the handle to snap the insert into position.
Adjusting the upper basket
The upper basket can be raised or lowered to accommodate tall items. The basket can also be angled to fit tall items in both, the upper and lower baskets. The angles should not be set to opposite extremes. This will block the middle spray arm. Take care when sliding the basket in and out in this position. ^ Slide out the upper basket. Depending on the setting of the upper basket, a variety of plate dimensions can be accommodated. For example: If the upper basket is in its highest position a plate with a diameter of 12 3/16" (31 cm) can be fit in the lower basket.
^ Pull up the levers at the sides of the upper basket and adjust the basket height. ^ Release the levers and the basket will lock in place.
