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 Fragile Dishes section before washing china with unglazed decoration or other household goods made of plastic, wood, or crystal requiring careful treatment.
Check the door fitting
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.
OBS!
The machine can only be adjusted when the door is open!

Important safety instructions
This manual does not cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur.
Common sense and caution should always be used when installing, operating, and maintaining any appliance.
• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
• 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 touch the heating element during or imediately after use.
• 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 the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
• When removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it, remove the door to the washing compartment.
• Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher before servicing.
• Repairs should be done by a qualified technician.
Customer Care Center

Child safety!
Child safety tips
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. Seek medical advice.
• Do not allow children to use or play in or on the dishwasher.
• Load all long and sharp items in the knife/ utensil basket. If this is not possible, 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.
• Engage the child safety lock.

Basic Course
Below are step-by-step instructions to help you achieve the best possible dishwashing results.
Load the baskets correctly!
Thanks to Self Cleaning System, you do not need to rinse the dishes under running water. Simply remove large food particles and debris. Convenient and environmentally-friendly!
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates, and saucers in the upper basket.
Wine glasses should be hung from or leaned against the wine glass shelf.
Note!
Ensure that all soiled surfaces face inwards or downwards!
Place dinner plates, side plates, serving dishes, saucepans in the lower basket.
Check that the spray arms are able to move freely. See the section entitled Fragile
Dishes if you want to wash objects that may be fragile.
Dishwashing 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.
Stand the cutlery with handles downward and as spread out as possible. Ensure that spoons are not resting inside each other.
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.
Do not put cutlery made of different materials - such as silver and stainless steel - in the same compartment (risk of stains).
In hard water areas, both the dishes and the machine can develop a white or gray film after a while.

This can be removed by replacing the prewash detergent with two tablespoons of citric acid. If the water is very hard, use a rinse aid that contains citric acid.
Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of phosphorous for softening water. If you have hard water and use a detergent with less than 8.7% phosphorous content, you may need to use more detergent or use a detergent with more than
8.7% phosphorous content.
NOTE:
We recommend that you do not add prewash detergent for the Quick wash programs.
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser cover. There is a risk that the dishwasher detergent will not break down properly to give the correct dosage if the cover is tight and cannot be opened correctly.
3-in-1/ Multi-purpose detergent
Note!
If you use a dishwashing detergent with a rinse aid additive, you may not need to fill the rinse aid dispenser.
Read the directions for use for such products carefully. If anything is unclear, contact the detergent manufacturer.

Press start
The dishwasher will now start. It manages the entire wash automatically.
Ensure that the door is properly closed or the machine will not start.
The display shows ‘Program started’. If the door is open or not properly closed, ‘Close door’ appers in the display.
Changing program
If you want to change program after having started the machine, press the Start/Stop button for three seconds. Then select a new program and press the Start/Stop button.
Make sure there is detergent in the dispenser.
Do you want to load more dishes?
Carefully open the door; the machine will stops automatically, put in the dishes, close the door and the dishwasher will continue from where it left off.
If the machine is switched off at the main switch
(or in the event of a power cut) before the washing program has been completed, the interrupted program will continue when the power comes back on.
Note!
If the power is switched off, or if the door is open during drying, the program is interrupted.

Description
An option that shortens the program time but uses more water and energy to clean the dishes. Can be used with Heavy Wash and Normal Wash.
This option is available when using a combi detergent, such as a 3-in-1 type. The dishwashing programs are automatically adjusted so that the best possible washing and drying results are always attained. If you deactivate this option, the machine will return to ordinary function for all programs. When using this option it is not necessary to add rinse aid as the rinse aid dosing function is bypassed. Salt consumption is reduced by roughly, so the water softener must still be filled with salt.
Read the dishwashing detergent package carefully for directions of use. If you have problems with deposits or dishes not being dry: deactivate this option and fill with rinse aid and salt. Salt consumption applies only to machines with water softeners. See the chapter entitled “Before doing your first wash”.
NB: In order to achieve good dishwashing results, it is essential to check which type of dishwasher detergent or combi product best suits your needs!
The instructions and warnings on the packaging must be followed!
The Super rinse option adds two extra rinses. The
Super rinse option can be used in all programs except the Time, Rinse & Hold and Rinse & Dry programs.
This option lets you set a cool-down cycle after the drying program, if you want the dishes to be cooler for unloading (in all programs except Time, Rinse &
Dry, Rinse & Hold).
If you wish to use settings, continue to Special settings .

Wash at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only lightly soiled you can run a Quick wash program and reduce the temperature to 86°F (30°C).
Select a program with Normal dry
To save energy, select Normal dry. You will get a better drying result if you leave the door slightly open after the end of the program.
Do not rinse before dishwashing
Thanks to the dishwasher’s Self Cleaning
System (SCS) you do not need to rinse the dishes under running water before loading them into the machine.
Choose environmentally-friendly dishwasher detergent
Read environmental declarations on the package!
Connect to cold water supply
For best performance it is recommended that connection is to cold water.

Fragile dishes
A number of household goods are not suitable for machine washing. This can be due to a variety of reasons. Certain materials cannot withstand intense heat; others can be damaged by the dishwasher detergent.
Fragile decoration
China with decoration on top of the glaze
(the goods have a rough feel) should not be machine washed.
Crystal/ glass
Place the goods so that they do not knock together during the wash. Use the lowest possible wash temperature and the shortest possible program. Do not heat dry! Antique and very fragile items should not be machine washed.
Glass which is machine washed at high temperatures can in time develop a grey film which cannot be removed. Wash fine glass at the lowest temperature and with a low dosage of dishwasher detergent.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact with each other as the silver can discolor.
Cutlery with glued handles
Certain types of adhesive cannot withstand machine washing. In such cases the handles can come loose.
Wood
Wooden items should only be machine washed if they are labeled as dishwasher safe.
Aluminum
Aluminum can be dulled by machine washing. However, good quality aluminum saucepans can be machine washed, although a reduction in luster should be expected.
Plastic
Certain types of plastic cannot withstand the high temperature generated in machine dishwashing.
Protect plastic goods
Select a program with a low temperature.

Display
When you have selected programme and option, the display shows the length of time the programme took the last time it was used. When you have started the machine, the display window shows how much of the programme time remains.
This time can vary a little from one occasion to another depending on the temperature of the inlet water, the amount of dishes, the ambient temperature, etc.
During the time the programme is operating, the time is counted down and the remaining programme time is shown in the window.
The remaining time is shown e.g. as 1:02, which means that 1 hour and 2 minutes of the programme remain.
NB!
During the first run of each programme, the remaining time display can be slightly misleading as the machine is estimating the time. If the programme takes longer than expected, it displays 1 minute until the programme is finished.

Cleaning
The dishwasher tub is made of stainless steel and is kept clean through normal use.

Rinse aid
Adding rinse aid
In some cases, drying can be made more efficient by using rinse aid.
Machines with indicator on the panel
When the rinse aid has run out and more is needed, the rinse aid symbol on the panel lights up*.
To fill with rinse aid:
1. Turn and lift up the cover of the rinse aid compartment to the right of the dispenser.
This is where you top up and set the amount of rinse aid to be dispensed in each wash.
2. Carefully pour in rinse aid up to the dosage setting knob.
Alter dosage if required. Do not forget to close the cover.
*Note!
After filling there may be a short delay before the signal light goes out.
Machines with refill indicator in detegrent dispenser
There is a refill indicator in the middle of the dispenser (see illustration). If the refill indicator is totally black, there is sufficient rinse aid. However, if the indicator has a more transparent appearance, you need to top up with rinse aid (see above).
Select dosage
The dispenser is usually set at 1= soft water.
However, depending on the water hardness, you may need to change the dosage.
Open the rinse aid cover. Here you will find the dispenser’s adjustment dial. Settings 1-6: the harder the water, the higher the dosage.
When the water hardness exceeds 3 grains, you should use rinse aid with citric acid (acid rinse aid).
Too much rinse aid can lead to the buildup of foam. If your water is particularly soft, you can dilute the rinse aid (1 part rinse aid,
1 part water).
Too much rinse aid can cause streaks on the dishes, while too little can result in water stains.
