Safety instructions The safety of AEG electrical appliances conforms to accepted rules of technology and the Appliance Safety Act. We as manufacturers, however, see ourselves as being obliged to familiarise you with the following safety instructions. Using your dishwasher for its intended purpose ● Only use your dishwasher for machine washing of household crockery.
● The water in your dishwasher should not be used for drinking. Detergent residues may still be present in your machine. Make sure you do not splash these caustic residues onto your skin or suffocate yourself! Keep children well away from your dishwasher when its door is open. Your dishwasher in day-to-day use ● Never operate your dishwasher if the electrical supply lead, supply or drainhose, control panel, worktop or plinth are damaged. 4 ● If there is a fault, first turn the water tap off.
Disposing of packaging and old machine Disposing of the packaging Our dishwashers require effective protective packaging in transit, though we always confine ourselves to what is absolutely necessary. Warning! Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for children, who could even be suffocated! You should therefore keep all packaging well away from children. All packaging materials used are environmentally compatible and reusable.
Disposing of your old machine When your machine finally reaches the end of its life and you withdraw it from service, you should render it unserviceable before having it disposed of. Warning! Children at play could lock themselves in your machine (and suffocate) or otherwise endanger their lives. Therefore pull out the main plug and detach and discard the electrical supply lead. Disable the door lock so that the door no longer closes.
Important hints Operating your dishwasher economically and with regard for the environment Collect your dirty dishes, stack them in the dishwasher, and only wash them when both baskets are full, making sure that the latter are never overloaded. Only then can you be sure that you are machine-washing economically and with regard for the environment. Always select the programme corresponding to the type of crockery and degree of soiling (see "Washing programmes" chart).
Suitable crockery The following items have certain machine washing limitations: - Only wash earthenware crockery in your dishwasher if the manufacturer has expressly indicated it as being suitable for that purpose. - Some types of decoration which have been painted over the glaze may fade after frequent machine washing. - Silver and aluminium parts tend to discolour during machine washing. - Many food residues, such as egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouration or staining on silver.

Before using your dishwasher for the first time When your new dishwasher is correctly set up and installed, you must first make it ready for use. Before using your dishwasher for the first time, proceed as follows: - set the water softener; - fill the special salt container with special salt; - fill the rinse-aid dispenser with rinse-aid. The following sections give you more detailed information about the individual points.
The dishwasher is factory set "level 4" as this suits most users. If you use phosphate free detergents containing enzymes, add salt starting from 4°dH (7° TH). To set a different level, proceed as follows: The level setting is possible only with the dishwasher turned off. Press and keep pressed the "NORMAL BIO 50°" programme pushbutton. Press the on/off pushbutton.
Filling with special salt Only use salt designed specifically for use in dishwashers. Other types of salt i.e. table/cooking salt contain high percentages of other substances which may reduce the efficiency of the softener. Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really is salt.
Caution: Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes (not the RINSE AND HOLD programme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which could cause corrosion. The rinse-aid The rinse-aid ensures brilliant crockery and also helps it to dry. It is automatically dosed in during the hot rinsing cycle.
Setting the rinse aid quantity to be added The correct dosage of the rinse-aid should be regulated on the basis of the shine and drying results. For this purpose, set the quantity of liquid by means of the six-position selector (C) located on the inside of the filler opening (minimum quantity is position 1, maximum quantity is position 6). Use the tip of a knife or a screwdriver to rotate the selector.
The amount of detergent to be used varies depending on how soiled the dishes are and the type of dishes being washed. We recommend the amounts shown in the programme chart. After filling the dispenser with detergent, close the lid. All the programmes with prewash require a small extra amount of detergent to be poured over the lid of the dispenser, as shown on the picture. DE11 At the end of any washing programme the lid is always open, ready for the next wash.
BIO programmes and compact powders On the basis of their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be classified into two groups: - conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components: - low-alkaline compact powders with natural enzymes. The enzymes in low-alkaline compact powders have a dirt-dissolving effect and are also biodegradable. These enzymes deploy their full dirt-dissolving power within a temperature range of 40-50°C.
Loading your machine Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any large scraps of food from the plates (small bones, toothpicks, fish bones, scraps of meat and vegetables, fruit skins etc.) to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing performance. Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes. Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very heavily soiled pots and pans. Always arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside-down.
The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls. To lower the prongs: Slightly pull them upward and let them drop down; to bring them back to the standing position, just pull them up again. UI18 Cutlery basket Place knives, forks and spoons in the cutlery basket with their handles pointing downwards. Arrange cutlery loosely and distribute it in all compartments so that each individual article has good contact with washing water.
Important note! To prevent the full cutlery basket from inadvertently unfolding when being taken out, place your hand right round the two-piece handle and hold it firmly. ❐ Place the cutlery basket on a firm support (table, worktop) and unfold both handle parts. UI20 ❐ UI25 After unfolding, fold back both handle parts. Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses; these should be arranged as shown in the pictures. Glasses with long stems can be placed upside-down in the raised cup-racks US08 IEC 436 / DIN 44990 US07 The cup-rack on the left folds upwards to increase your loading flexibility. Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.
Adjusting the height of the upper basket If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position as follows: Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket outward and slide the basket out. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops (A) in their original position.
Operating instructions Set and start the programme Push the plug into the socket. Open the water supply. The selection of the programme occurs with the door partially opened. Press the on/off pushbutton, the pilot light comes on. Press the button corresponding to the selected programme. The indicator lights corresponding to the programme and the phases of the programme will illuminate. The control lights of "rinse aid" and "salt" may also illuminate if refilling is necessary.
Changing the programme If a programme that is already running has to be changed proceed as follows: Press the button of the selected programme for 5 seconds; after these 5 seconds the previous setting has been cancelled and you can select another programme. Interrupting a programme Caution! Opening the door could let very hot steam escape: you risk being scalded! Open the door with great care. - A programme underway is interrupted when you open the door. - Close the door again.
Care instructions Internal and external cleaning Clean the screen and controls of your dishwasher where necessary with a soft cloth and lukewarm water. Important note! Never use commercially available furniture cleaners or aggressive detergents. We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.
Cleaning the large filter (every two months) If necessary clean the large filter (B) on both sides under running water, using a brush. To take it out remove the spray arm by pulling it upward on one side, turn the column (C) anticlockwise by 90° and then slide out the filter. Once cleaned refit it following the above instructions in reverse order. Ensure the filter is in its original position, the handle of the filter (A) should be pointing towards the front of the appliance.
Servicing Before calling our Service Centre, please check whether you can rectify the fault yourself by following the instructions given below. Should this information be of no assistance to you in a specific case, please contact our Service Centre. The dishwasher is fitted with a number of alarm systems. The dishwasher fails to start or stops during operation; and all the lights are off (except pilot light) and the light corresponding to the phase under way flashes.
General (no alarm appears) Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer. Before contacting your local Service Centre, please carry out the following checks. The dishwasher does not start ● The door has not been properly closed. Close the door. ● The plug is not properly inserted in the power socket. Insert the plug into the socket. ● There is no current at the socket. Check the fuse. The dishes are not clean (poor wash).
The dishwasher is noisy ● The dishes are rattling against each other. ● The spray arms are knocking against the dishes. The dishes are not quite dry ● The dishes have been left too long inside the machine. The door is difficult to close ● The dishwasher is not levelled out or is not properly built-in.
Customer service In the section “Servicing", we have listed the most important faults which you can rectify yourself. Should you still wish to call our Service Centre for any of the specified faults or because the appliance is being wrongly operated, the service engineer's visit cannot be made free of charge even during the guarantee period. Should you find no reference to a fault in the operating instructions, you should call our Service Centre. When making your call, quote the E-No.
Technical data Capacity Up to 9 standard place settings including serving utensils. Allowable water pressure 5-80 N/cm2 (0,5-8 Bar = 0,05-0,8 MPa). Electrical connection Details of the electrical connection are given on the rating plate. It is located on the right inside edge of the door. This appliance complies with the following E.E.C.
Installing Positioning Set the machine up as close as possible to a water tap and a connection for waste water. In order to ensure the door closes and seals properly, it is necessary for the machine to stand firmly and horizontally on the floor. Adjust the screw feet upwards and downwards until the machine stands level. For free-standing appliances only If you wish to push your appliance under a kitchen work-top, you can remove its built-in work-top (the cover of the dishwasher).
Adapting the work-top You can move the work-top 25 mm towards the front or the back so that it fits exactly up against the kitchen cabinet. To do this, loosen the two fixing screws at the front, bring the work-top into the required position, and tighten the screws again. IN02 Fitting a decor panel on the door The door of this machine has frames for fitting a plastic laminate decor panel in the colour required to match the dishwasher with the rest of the kitchen furniture.
To fit the panel Take the door frame off after removing the retaining screws around the edge. Position the panel, refit the frame and tighten the retaining screws around the edge. Note: The panel should be fitted before positioning the machine. For built-in appliances only Please consult the enclosed template with the installation instructions.
Connecting the water supply Your dishwasher has been built in accordance with the valid regulations governing water-consuming appliances and is equipped with safety devices which prevent used water from flowing back into the drinking water mains. Your dishwasher can be connected to either a cold or hot water supply of max. 60°C.
Water outlet connection The end of the drain hose can be connected as follows: to the sink outlet siphon, securing it if necessary with a clip; to a wall outlet provided with vent-hole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm. The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the floor. It makes no difference which way the drain hose faces, either to the right or left of the dishwasher.
Water protection system To protect your dishwasher from water damage, it is equipped with a water protection system. Apart from an overflow protection, which prevents uncontrolled rising of water in the appliance, it also features an outlet protection (float switch in the floor tray). This responds in the event of any untightness in the machine. In all cases of malfunction, the water supply is immediately interrupted and the drain pump switched on. This prevents water from either flowing out or overflowing.
