Before doing your first wash
Read through the directions for use
Read through the directions for use before
starting to use your machine, especially the
Safety, Child Safety and Basic Course
sections.
Take care with certain materials
Read the section ‘Fragile dishes’ before
washing china with unglazed decoration or
other household goods made of plastic,
wood or crystal requiring careful treatment.
Check the door
Check that the door of the dishwasher fits
properly: open the door a little and let it go.
Does it stay exactly where you released it?
If not, you should check the installation
instructions or consult the installer.
Check water hardness level
Phone your local Water Board to check the
water hardness in your area. This is important
when dispensing dishwasher detergent and
rinse aid.
Machine with water softener
Once you know the water hardness, you
can set the water softener, see Settings.
Before you start dishwashing, you must
also fill with salt, see Salt.

Safety
General
• Read and keep the directions for use!
• Installation of water, drainage and electricity
must be carried out by a qualified professional.
• Do not use the dishwasher for any pur-
poses other than those stated in these
directions for use.
• Do not load the dishwasher door or the
dishwasher baskets with anything other
than dishes.
• Only use dishwasher detergent!
• Place knives and other sharp objects so
that they cannot cause injury to people or
damage the dishwasher.
Never put dishes containing solvent residue
in the machine due to risk of explosion.
Neither may dishes containing ashes, wax
or lubricating grease be washed in the
dishwasher.
Winter storage/Transport
Store the machine away from frost.
Avoid long journeys in extreme cold. Trans-
port the machine in an upright position or
lying on its back.
Overfill protection
The overfill protector starts pumping out
water and closes off the water intake if the
machine’s water level exceeds the normal
level. If the overfill protector starts up, shut
off the water supply and phone for service.
See also ‘Troubleshooting’ on pages 23-25.
Cleaning
Only use a slightly damp cloth for cleaning
around the edge of the door. Do not use a
spray bottle! Water can penetrate into the
lock and come into contact with the elec-
trical components.
Packaging materials
Sort at source in accordance with the re-
commendations of your local authority.
Scrapping
When the time comes for the machine to be
scrapped, it should immediately be ren-
dered unusable. Remove the plug and cut
off the lead as short as possible.
Contact the refuse collection department or
your local authority for information on the
correct way to dispose of the dishwasher!
The dishwasher is manufactured and la-
belled for recycling.

Child-safe dishwashing
• Always close the door and start the pro-
gram immediately once dishwasher deter-
gent has been added.
• Keep children away from the dishwasher
when it is open. There might be the remains
of dishwasher detergent present!
• Do not allow children to use or play with
the dishwasher. Always take particular care
when the door is open.
Protect your children!
- Dishwasher detergent is corrosive!
Store dishwasher detergent and rinse aid
out of the reach of children! Should dish-
washer detergent be swallowed, immedi-
ately drink one or two glasses of milk or
water. Do not attempt to induce vomiting.
Contact a doctor! Should dishwasher deter-
gent come into contact with the eyes, rinse
(for at least 15 minutes) with copious
amounts of water.
Child safety!
