Before washing for the first time
1. Checking 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.
Water hardness is specified using the following scales: The German water hardness scale (°dH) and the French water hardness scale (°fH).
A water supply with a water hardness in excess of 6°dH (9°fH) must be softened. This is done automatically with the aid of the built-in water softener. In order for the water softener to function optimally, it must be adjusted to the hardness of the water supply. If the water hardness exceeds 50°dH (89°fH), we recommend connecting an external water softener.
Contact the local waterworks, or measure the water hardness using the supplied test strip, to check the water hardness in your area. Once you have adjusted the water softener, use detergent and rinse aid doses suitable for soft water.
How to use the test strip:
1 Turn on the water tap and let the water run for a minute or so.
2 Fill a glass with water.
3 Remove the test strip from its packaging.
4 Dip the test strip in the water for about one second.
5 Wait one minute. Now compare the colours of the squares with the water hardness table.

Press to open
4. Top up with salt
Before you begin using a dishwasher with a water softener, you must fill the salt compartment with salt for the water supply to be softened automatically. Use large grain salt or special dishwasher salt.
WARNING!
In order to avoid rust stains a dishwashing programme must be started immediately after adding salt.
Never pour dishwasher detergent into the salt compartment. This destroys the water softener!
Do as follows the first time:
1 Unscrew the lid as illustrated.
2 Place the funnel supplied with the dishwasher in the salt compartment top-up hole. First, pour in about 1 l of water.
3 Then add salt, a maximum of 1.0 kg, until the compartment is full.
4 Wipe up any excess salt so that the lid can be screwed on firmly.
5 Run a programme to ensure that any salt in the dishwasher is rinsed away.
1 Open the rinse aid compartment lid.
2 Carefully top up with rinse aid. Only add rinse aid to the level marked max .
3 Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the compartment.
4 Close the lid firmly.
Top up rinse aid
When the rinse aid needs topping up, the above symbol lights on the display.
After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes out.
NOTE!
Increase the rinse aid dosage:
• If the dishes have water marks.
Decrease the rinse aid dosage:
• If the dishes have a sticky white/blue film.
• If the dishes are streaked.
• Build-up of foam. If you have very soft water, the rinse aid can be diluted 50:50 with water.

Loading the dishwasher
Greener dishwashing
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!
Run programmes only with a full load
Wait to run a programme until the dishwasher is full, this way you save energy. Use the Rinse and hold programme to rinse the dishes if there are any unpleasant odours while you wait for the dishwasher to become fully loaded.
Run programmes at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select a programme with a low temperature.
Select ECO wash
This programme is intended for cleaning normally dirty dishes and is the most effective programme in terms of combined energy and water consumption.
The dishwashing programme is designed for an effective wash using as little energy and water as possible. The programme washes at a low temperature for a long time.
Select Green mode
The dishwasher has different programme modes. To save energy and water, use Green mode. (Available with: Normal wash, Daily wash)
Open the door a little once the programme has finished
Better drying results are achieved if you use the Auto Open option, which automatically opens the dishwasher door. Wait until the dishwasher indicates that the programme 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.
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 cuts dishwashing times and reduces the dishwasher's energy consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware cannot withstand strong heat.
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several reasons.
Some materials cannot withstand strong heat, others can be damaged by dishwashing 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.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the items feel rough) should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal/Glass
Wash fragile items made of crystal/glass, such as crystal glass from
Orrefors, using the gentle dishwashing programme 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.
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.
Hand-painted glassware, as well as antique and very fragile items, should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact, as the silver can become discoloured.
Aluminium
Aluminium can lose its shine if washed in a dishwasher. However, good quality aluminium pans can be washed in a dishwasher, even if some of the shine will be lost.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In such cases, the handles may loosen.
Points to consider
• 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.
NOTE!
Check that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The dishwasher's baskets
The dishwasher is equipped with a top cutlery tray, an upper basket and a lower basket with a cutlery basket.
The appearance of the baskets may differ depending on the dishwasher setup.

Using the dishwasher
Add detergent
Press to open
1 Prewash detergent compartment
2 Main wash detergent compartment
Detergent is added according to water hardness.
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.
The detergent compartment must be dry when adding detergent. There is one compartment for the prewash and one for the main wash. If powder or liquid dishwasher detergent is used, add a small amount of the detergent to the prewash compartment. Contact the detergent manufacturer if you have questions about the detergent.
NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Washing up liquid 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 will not open correctly.
NOTE!
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programmes
(less than 75 minutes). Use powder or liquid dishwasher detergent instead.
All-in-one detergent
There are many types of all-in-one detergents on the market. Read through the directions for these products carefully.
When using an all-in-one detergent that contains rinse aid, you can activate the setting TAB. Note that the salt compartment must be filled with salt.
NOTE!
Optimal washing and drying results are achieved by using normal dishwasher detergent together with separately dispensed rinse aid and salt.

Cover door with slide function fitted, which means the cover door slides upwards when the dishwasher is opened.
Nominal dimensions. Actual measurements may vary.
• Check that the machine is installed such that the door opens freely, otherwise door lock functionality may be disrupted.
It is important that you read through and follow the instructions and directions below. Conduct installation and connection in accordance with the separate installation instructions.
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 Rinse and hold programme. 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!
22
Setup
• The recess and connection dimensions are included in the separate installation instructions. Check that all dimensions are correct before starting the installation. Note that the height of the cover door can be adjusted to match other fittings.
• Make sure the area on which the dishwasher is to be installed is firm. Adjust the adjustable feet so that the dishwasher is level.
Tighten the lock nuts.
• If the dishwasher is built-in the surrounding furnishings must be resistant to any condensation from the dishwasher.
• Affix the protective film (packed in the document bag) to the underside of the worktop. The protective film is to protect the worktop from moisture.
Drainage connection
See the separate installation instructions for necessary information.
This dishwasher is suitable for installing in a raised recess (to attain an ergonomic working height). This means that the dishwasher can be placed so that the drainage hose runs to a lower level than the bottom of the dishwasher, such as by routing it directly to a floor drain. The dishwasher is fitted with an integrated anti-siphon device to prevent the machine from being emptied of water during the wash cycle.
The drainage hose can also be connected to a connection nipple on the sink unit's water trap. The connection nipple must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm.
The drainage hose may be extended by a maximum of 2.5 m (the total length of the drainage hose must not exceed 4.5 m). Any joins and connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm.
However, the drainage hose should ideally be replaced with a new hose without joins.
No part of the drainage hose may be more than 950 mm above the bottom of the dishwasher.
Attach the drainage hose with a hose clamp. Ensure that the drainage hose has no kinks.
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 cuts dishwashing times and reduces the dishwasher's energy consumption.
NOTE!
Do not exceed the permitted water supply temperature. Certain materials used in some cookware cannot withstand strong 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!
NOTE!
Repairs and maintenance relating to safety or performance must be carried out by a qualified professional.
