Here is an overview of the different options available on your dishwasher. The appliance door opens automatically during the drying phase. To ensure a higher hygiene status for the appliance and dishware, the temperature is increased and maintained for an extra-long period. Continuous use of this option improves the hygiene status. You can adjust the height of the upper rack to make room for larger items. Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements for soil removal and sanitation efficacy. You can find an overview of the possible features of your appliance and how to use them here. These features depend on your appliance model.
• Page 11: Features Raise or lower the rack evenly to the right level. Check that the rack is level on both sides. Release the levers. Arrange silverware in the silverware drawer. The rack clicks into position. Slide the rack in. Arrange pans and plates in the lower rack. Arrange silverware with the points and sharp edges down. You can reorganize the silverware drawer to make more space for longer or wider utensils. Load knives and other sharp utensils with edges down.
• Page 12: Features To fold down a side shelf, push the lever forward and fold down the side shelf. Use the cup shelf and the space underneath for small cups and glasses or for large items of silverware, e.g. cooking spoons or serving cutlery. To fold down the front tines, push the lever forward and fold down the folding tines. If you do not need the cup shelf, you can fold it down. Use the flip tines to position dishware securely, e.g. plates. If you want to return the cutlery tray to its original position, fold the side shelf upward until it clicks into position. You can fold the tines down to arrange pans, bowls and glasses better. If you do not need the tines, fold them down. Depending on the appliance specifications.
• Page 13: Before using for the first time, push the lever forward and fold down the tines. To use the tines again, fold them back up; the tines click into position. Set the racks at the right height. For appliance height 34 with silverware basket, the upper rack settings are 24 cm / 9.5, 26.5 cm / 10.5, and 29 cm / 11.5. The lower rack settings are 33 cm / 13, 30.5 cm / 12, and 28 cm / 11. For appliance height 34 with silverware drawer, the upper rack settings are 18 cm / 7, 20.5 cm / 8, and 23 cm / 9. If you remove the 3rd rack, you can place large items. Start the program with the highest cleaning temperature of dishware in the lower rack without dishware. To remove any marks from water or other residues, operate the appliance without dishware before using it for the first time. Before the first use, or after a factory reset, you will need to configure the settings. For optimum drying results, use rinse aid. Only use rinse aid intended for household dishwashers.
• Page 14: Press the catch on the lid of the dispenser for rinse aid and lift. The factory setting for rinse aid is level 2. A low setting adds less rinse aid during the wash cycle and reduces streaking on dishware. A higher setting adds more rinse aid during the wash cycle, reduces water spots, and improves the drying result. If rinse aid spills out, remove it from the tub as it can cause excessive frothing during the wash cycle. The rinse aid system can be switched off by pressing repeatedly until no LED lights up. If there are streaks or water spots on dishware, change the amount of rinse aid. Only use detergents that are made for dishwashers, either basic or combination detergents. For the best washing and drying results, use a separate detergent and add rinse aid separately. Modern detergents mainly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes to break down starch and remove protein.
• Page 15: Detergent Follow the manufacturer's instructions for each detergent. Use tablets with enhanced drying results. To open the detergent dispenser, press the locking latch. Add the detergent to the dry detergent dispenser. Powder detergent is recommended for shorter cycles. Liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for shorter cycles without a pre-rinse. Do not use a detergent which is not designated for dishwasher use or contains chlorine. Liquid hand soap can cause increased frothing and damage the appliance. Detergents marked as ecological generally contain lower levels of active agents. Adjust the rinse aid and the water softening system settings in accordance with the detergent in use.
• Page 16: Dishware The water temperature of the cycle is too high. Select a cycle with lower temperatures. This dishwasher provides optimum cleaning performance without the use of a prewash detergent. After the cycle has ended, take glassware and silverware out of the appliance without delay. Only wash dishware that is suitable for dishwashers. Avoid dishwasher damage by not loading it with paper products or anything other than normal, dishwasher-safe dishware. Only put glasses and china in the dishwasher if they are labeled dishwasher-safe. Using the appliance allows you to save energy and water compared to doing dishes by hand. For better washing and drying results, position items with curves or recesses at an angle so water can run off. Do not use highly caustic alkaline or highly acidic cleaning solutions, particularly commercial or industrial cleaners. To save resources, do not pre-rinse dishware under running water.
• Page 17: Dishware To avoid damage to dishware, arrange it so it is stable and cannot tip over. Recommended loading patterns. To avoid injury, arrange silverware with the points and sharp edges facing down. Position containers with the openings facing down so no water can collect in them. Do not block the spray arms - make sure that they can turn freely. Do not place small parts in the collecting tray and do not block it with dishware so as not to obstruct the lid of the detergent dispenser. CAUTION Dishes can be very hot immediately after the cycle ends. Open the door slightly and allow dishes to cool for a few minutes before unloading. To prevent water dripping onto dishware, unload it starting at the bottom and working up.
• Page 18: Basic operation includes protection against unintentional operation, which helps prevent accidental use by children.
