• 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 cutlery 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 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 dishwasher 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

Winter storage/Transport
• Store the dishwasher where the temperature remains above freezing.
• Avoid long transport distances in very cold weather.
• Transport the dishwasher upright or laying on its back.
Overflow guard function
The overflow protection starts pumping out the machine and turns off the water supply if the water level in the dishwasher exceeds the normal level. If the overflow protection is triggered, turn off the water supply and call the Customer Care Center.
Care and maintenance instructions
When cleaning the edge around the door, use only a slightly damp cloth. Do not spray water around the edge! Moisture can make its way into the lock, which contains electrical components.
Packing material
Please sort waste materials in accordance with local guidelines.
Disposal
• When the machine has reached the end of its service life and is to be disposed of, it should immediately be made unusable. Pull out the power cable and cut it as short as possible.
• The dishwasher is manufactured and labeled for recycling.
• Contact your municipality for information about where and how your dishwasher can be recycled correctly.
Child safety
TIP!
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 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.

Economic dishwashing
Run programs only with a full load
Wait until the dishwasher is fully loaded before running a program, this way you save energy. Use the Rinse
& Hold program to rinse the dishes if there are any unpleasant odors while you wait for the dishwasher to become fully loaded.
Run programs at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only lightly soiled, you can select a lower temperature with certain programs. See also
the section Select options in the chapter Dishwashing.
Select a program with Short dry
To save energy, use Short dry. The drying result will be better if, once the program is finished, you leave the door slightly open.
Do not rinse under running water
Simply scrape off large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
Choose a green detergent
Read the environmental declaration on the packaging!
Connect to cold water...
If you use oil or electricity to heat your home.
Connect to hot water (max. 160 °F
(70 °C))...
If you use district heating, solar power, or geothermal power to heat your home. Choosing a hot water connection cuts program times and reduces the dishwasher's electricity consumption.
Customer Care Center
1-800-898-1879 www.askousa.com
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several reasons. Some materials cannot withstand high temperatures, others can be damaged by dishwasher detergent.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the items feel rough) should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal / Glass
Position items so that they do not touch each other during the wash. Use the lowest possible wash temperature and the shortest possible program.
Select Short dry. Antique and very fragile items should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Glass washed in a dishwasher at high temperatures can gradually develop a gray film that cannot be removed. Wash fragile glasses at a low temperature and with a small amount of detergent.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact, as the silver can become discolored.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In such cases, the handles may loosen.
Wood
Wooden items should only be washed in a dishwasher if marked dishwasher safe.
Aluminum
Aluminum can lose its shine if washed in a dishwasher. However, good quality aluminum pans can be washed in a dishwasher, even if some of the shine will be lost.
Plastic items
Avoid washing plastic items that cannot withstand high temperatures.

Below are step-by-step instructions to help you achieve the best possible dishwashing results.
1
Load the baskets correctly
Do not rinse dishes under running water before loading them in the dishwasher. Simply scrape off large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
See the section Fragile dishes if you want to wash
items that may be considered fragile.
Upper basket
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates, and saucers in the upper basket. Wine glasses are placed on the wine glass shelf and knives are placed in the knife stand on the right (if equipped).
NOTE!
All dirty surfaces should face in and down!
Lower basket
Place plates, side plates, serving dishes, pots, and cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket.
Cutlery basket
Place cutlery with the handles facing down, except for knives, and spread them out as much as possible.
Ensure that spoons do not stack inside each other.
The cutlery basket is placed in the lower basket.
WARNING!
Knives and other pointed items must be placed with the points down in the cutlery basket or horizontally in other baskets.
Do not place cutlery made of different materials, such as silver and stainless steel, in the same place (risk of discoloration).
The cutlery basket has a fold-down section in the middle for small items, or small shafts, such as electric whisk attachments.
2
Check that the spray arms can rotate freely
3
Add 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

Dishwashing
a while. If this happens, run the Heavy wash program with high temperature and two tablespoons of citric acid or commercially available dishwasher cleaner in the detergent compartment (with no dishes in the machine).
NOTE!
We recommend that you do not add prewash detergent for the programs Quick wash or Super
Quick wash.
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.
NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Liquid hand-washing detergent must not be used as the foam that forms prevents the dishwasher from operating effectively.
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser lid. There is a risk that the detergent will not be released properly if the lid is tight and cannot open correctly.
NOTE!
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programs (less than 75 minutes). Use powder or liquid dishwasher detergent instead.
3-in-1/ All-in-one detergent
Read through the directions for these products carefully. If anything is unclear, contact the detergent manufacturer.
WARNING!
Children must be supervised – dishwasher detergent is corrosive!

Time remaining
Once you have selected a program and options, the display indicates how long the program took the last time it was used.Once you have started the dishwasher, the display indicates how much program time remains. The remaining time is updated after the water for the final rinse has been heated.
This may differ somewhat from time to time depending on the temperature of the water supply, the amount of dishes, the ambient temperature, and other factors.
While the program is running, the time counts down and the remaining program time is shown on the display. The remaining time is shown, for example, as 1:15, which means the program will run for another
1 hour and 15 minutes.
NOTE!
During the first run of each program, the remaining time displayed can be slightly misleading, as the dishwasher is estimating the time. When you run the program a second time, the dishwasher will calculate the remaining time based on the previous duration of the program.
