Installing your dishwasher Choose a suitable location for your dishwasher. Take care to ensure that the machine is standing safely and levelly. Unevenness in the floor can be equalised by adjusting the screw feet. When the machine is standing correctly, the door can be closed without difficulties. Water inlet and drainage hoses must be placed so that they can move freely in order to avoid bending or squeezing them. The machine may not be hooked up in rooms with a temperature below 0° Celsius.

4 Setting the water hardness level for the water softener Softening the water Dishwashers require fairly soft water. If the hardness exceeds 6°dH lime scale will form on crockery. To avoid this an automatic system adds a special salt to soften the water so that you obtain the best possible cleaning and drying performance.
A Filling the dishwasher salt Attention Only use special dishwasher salt in your machine to soften the water. The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from the use of the wrong salt type. Do not use coarse grained salt. Small grains or powdered salt is more easily soluble. Never use culinary or table salt. These types of salt do not dissolve in water easily and will damage the function of the softening device.
- Food leftovers are staying on the dishes for too long - The machine is not grounded properly - Cutlery parts from low-grade rustfree steel. - Dish items with rust stains Filling the rinse aid dispenser - Remove coarse dirt under running water and carry out the pre-wash program with an interval of 2 days without a detergent. Rinse aids allow washing water to rinse off more cleanly and prevent watermarks or streaks on the dishes. Only use rinse aids suited to use in dishwashers.
Detergents There are 3 types of detergents: 1. Phosphate and containing chlorine 2. Phosphate containing, no chlorine 3. Neither containing phosphate nor chlorine The new compact powders are normally phosphate free. As phosphates have water softening properties, we suggest you add salt to the salt container even if the hardness of your water is only 6°dH. In hard water areas, if a phosphate free detergent is used, white marks on the dishes and glasses may be observed.
The dishes are not becoming dry Possible causes How to fix these problems - Improper loading - Load the dishwasher as suggested in this booklet. - Insufficient rinse aid supply - Increase the amount of rinse aid / refill the rinse aid dispenser. - Dishes are removed too soon - Do not empty your dishwasher immediately after washing. Open the door slightly so that the steam can escape. Begin with unloading the dishwasher when the dishes are only hand warm. Empty the lower basket first.
Lower basket Suggestions for loading the dishwasher The cleaning results are unsatisfactory Use the lower basket for plates, bowls, pots etc. 4 folding plate support rods (depending on the model) A There are four separate "folding plate support rods" in the lower basket of your dishwasher designed to allow you more space to accommodate saucepans and large bowls in the lower basket. You can either fold each section (1,2,3,4) individually or, all at once, to create a large empty space.
Cleaning the spray arms A Inset basket with variable height setting (depending on the model) Dirt or calcium residue may block the nozzles on the spray arms. For this reason, regularly check the spray nozzles. 1 You can additionally use this inset in the lower basket for glasses and long-handled cutlery / utensils. 1 Lower spray arm 2 Upper spray arm If you do not need the inset, fold the rack upwards at the angle which is shown ( A ). 1. Remove the lower basket from the machine. 2.
Upper basket with variable height setting (depending on the model) A B The upper basket is equipped with a lifting mechanism which enables you to change the height of the basket even if it is fully loaded, and without having to remove it from the dishwasher. The height of the upper basket was set at the factory to the lowest position. To lift the upper basket to the high ( A ) position, hold it on one side and carefully pull it upwards.
