Available only through My Electrolux Kitchen app. The pressure and the temperature of the water can change the values. The values for programmes other than ECO are indicative only. You can configure the appliance by changing basic settings according to your needs. Adjust the level of the water softener according to the water hardness in your area. Adjust the level of the rinse aid according to the necessary dosage. For any other questions regarding your dishwasher, refer to the service book provided with your appliance.
• Page 14: Settings overview includes options for end sound, auto door open, key tones, latest program selection, display on floor, brightness, language, reset settings, and WiFi. End sound can be activated or deactivated for the end of a program. Key tones can be turned on or off to indicate button presses. Latest program selection allows automatic selection of the most recently used program. Display on floor can be activated or deactivated with TimeBeam. Brightness can be adjusted from 0 to 9. Preferred language can be set from a list of available languages. Reset settings will restore the appliance to factory settings without affecting wireless connection setup. Wireless connection can be activated or deactivated, and network information can be checked. To navigate in setting mode, use the MY TIME selection bar and confirm changes with the OK button.
• Page 15: The saved settings remain valid until you change them again. Make sure the appliance is in setting mode. The water softener removes minerals from the water supply, which would have a negative effect on the washing results and on the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales. The water softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Set the right level of the water softener to assure good washing results. For the correct water softener operation, the resin of the softener device needs to be regenerated regularly. This process is automatic and is part of the normal dishwasher operation. Multi-tabs containing salt are not effective enough to soften hard water.
• Page 16: When the prescribed quantity of water has been used since the previous regeneration process, a new regeneration process will be initiated between the final rinse and the programme end. The rinse aid helps to dry the dishes without streaks and stains and is automatically released during the hot rinse phase. When the rinse aid dispenser is empty, the display shows the indicator and low. For best drying performance, always use rinse aid and keep the notification active. Regeneration initiation has no impact on the cycle duration unless it occurs in the middle of a programme or at the end of a programme with a short drying phase. To deactivate the rinse aid dispenser and the notification, set the rinse aid level to 0. You can activate an acoustic signal that sounds when the programme is completed. The rinsing of the water softener may begin in the same cycle or at the beginning of the next programme. AirDry improves the drying results by automatically opening the appliance door during the drying phase. Each performed softener rinse may prolong the programme duration by another 5 minutes.
• Page 17: When the latest programme selection is disabled, the default programme is ECO. AirDry is automatically activated with all programmes other than Pre-rinse. TimeBeam displays information on the floor below the appliance door. The programme duration when the programme begins is shown. When AirDry opens the door, the display shows the remaining time of the running programme. An alarm code indicates when the appliance has a malfunction. Do not try to close the appliance door within 2 minutes after automatic opening. If children have access to the appliance, it is advised to deactivate AirDry. You need to provide the product number code (PNC number) of your appliance when contacting an Authorised Service Centre. You can connect your dishwasher to the My Electrolux Kitchen app for remote control and monitoring.
• Page 18: The app is compatible with iOS and Android operating systems. If the connection is successful, the dishwasher displays Connection successful. Refer to Daily use chapter to activate remote start. If the connection is unsuccessful or the display shows Updating, refer to Troubleshooting. To connect your dishwasher, you need a wireless network with an Internet connection and a mobile device connected to the wireless network. To deactivate the wireless connection, enter setting mode, select the setting WiFi, and change its value to OFF. To activate the wireless connection, enter setting mode, select the setting WiFi, and change its value to ON. If you want to connect to a different wireless network or update the credentials of the current network, reset the network credentials. Make sure that the current level of the water softener agrees with the hardness of the water supply. Fill the salt container and rinse aid dispenser before first use.
• Page 19: The appliance recharges the resin in the water softener for up to 5 minutes before starting the washing phase. Use only regeneration salt for dishwashers; do not use kitchen salt. Water and salt can come out of the salt container when filling it. Fill the salt container and then immediately start a complete dishwashing cycle with detergent. The salt is used to recharge the resin in the water softener and assure good washing results. The compartment for rinse aid is designated only for rinse aid; do not fill it with detergent. Only use rinse aid designed specifically for dishwashers. Carefully shake the funnel to get the last granules of salt inside the container. Remove the spilled rinse aid with an absorbent cloth to prevent excessive foam formation. Make sure that the ComfortLift basket is empty and locked in the raised position before filling the salt container.
• Page 20: Close the lid and ensure it locks into position. Fill the rinse aid dispenser when the indicator is clear. Open the water tap. Press and hold until the appliance is activated. Fill the salt container if it is empty. Load the baskets and add the detergent. Select and start a programme. Close the water tap when the programme is complete. The ComfortLift mechanism allows easy loading and unloading of dishes. Do not exceed the max load capacity of 18 kg.
• Page 21: Using the detergent Only use detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. Press the release button to open the lid. Put the detergent in the compartment. If the programme has a prewash phase, put a small quantity of detergent on the inner part of the appliance door. Close the lid. Make sure that the lid locks into position. For information about the detergent dosage, refer to the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging. How to select and start a programme using MY TIME selection bar Slide your finger across MY TIME selection bar to choose a suitable programme. Activate applicable EXTRAS if desired.
• Page 22: The display shows the longest possible program duration. To select Pre-rinse, press and hold for 3 seconds. Close the appliance door to start the program. The appliance senses the type of load and adjusts a suitable wash cycle. Select a programme using MY TIME selection bar. Press repeatedly until the display shows the desired delay time (from 1 to 24 hours). Opening the door while a programme is running pauses the wash cycle. After closing the door, the wash cycle resumes from the point of interruption. Activating options often increases the water and energy consumption as well as the programme duration. If the latest programme selection is enabled, the saved options are activated automatically along with the programme.
• Page 23: After closing the door, the countdown resumes. Make sure that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser before you start a new programme. Opening the door while the appliance operates may affect the energy consumption and the programme duration. The Auto Off function saves energy by switching the appliance off when it is not operating. When the programme is complete, the display shows Dishes clean. If you cancel the delay start, you have to select the programme again. Follow the hints below to ensure optimal cleaning and drying results in daily use and to protect the environment. Remove larger residues of food from the dishes and empty cups and glasses before putting them inside the appliance. Washing dishes in the dishwasher usually consumes less water and energy than washing dishes by hand. Load the dishwasher to its full capacity to save water and energy.
• Page 24: Select a programme according to the type of load and the degree of soil. ECO offers the most efficient use of water and energy consumption. Before you start using separately detergent, salt and rinse aid, complete the following steps to prevent limescale buildup inside the appliance. Refill the salt container whenever necessary. Set the highest level of the water softener. Use the recommended dosage of the detergent and rinse aid. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid containers are full. Start the Quick programme without adding detergent or putting dishes in the baskets. Before starting a programme, ensure that only dishwasher-designed products are used. The filters are clean and correctly installed. The spray arms are not clogged. The arrangement of the items in the baskets is correct. The programme is suitable for the type of load and the degree of soil. Always use the correct quantity of detergent. Insufficient dosage can result in poor cleaning results. Always use the whole space of the baskets and only wash dishwasher-safe items.
• Page 25: Put cutlery and small items in the cutlery drawer. First remove items from the lower basket, then from the upper basket. Move the upper basket upwards to accommodate large items in the lower basket. After the programme is completed, water can still remain on the inside surfaces of the appliance. Make sure that the spray arms can move freely before you start a programme. Let the tableware cool down before you remove it from the appliance. Before any maintenance other than running the programme Machine Care, deactivate the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the main socket. Use a descaler or a cleaning product designed specifically for dishwashers. Machine Care is a programme designed to clean the appliance interior with optimal results. To maintain the performance of your appliance, use a cleaning product designed specifically for dishwashers at least once every two months.
• Page 26: For optimal cleaning results, start the programme Machine Care. Check the filters and the sump after each use of the dishwasher. Foreign objects decrease the cleaning performance and can cause damage to the drain pump. If unable to remove the foreign objects, contact an Authorised Service Centre. Disassemble the filters system as instructed. Remove any foreign objects manually. Clean the appliance with a moist soft cloth. Only use neutral detergents. The filter system is made of 3 parts. Make sure that there are no residues of food or soil in or around the edge of the sump.
• Page 27: Wash the spray arm under running water. Use a thin pointed tool to remove particles of soil from the holes. Reassemble the filters and put back the filter in the flat filter. Turn it clockwise until it locks. To install the spray arm back, press it downwards. An incorrect position of the filters can cause bad washing results and damage to the appliance. We recommend to clean the lower spray arm regularly to prevent soil from clogging the holes. Clogged holes can cause unsatisfactory washing results. To remove the lower spray arm, pull it upwards. We recommend to clean the upper spray arm regularly to prevent soil from clogging the holes.
• Page 28: To detach the spray arm from the basket, press the spray arm upwards and simultaneously turn it clockwise. The ceiling spray arm is placed on the ceiling of the appliance. Wash the spray arm under running water. Use a thin pointed tool, e.g. a toothpick, to remove particles of soil from the holes. Move the upper basket to the lowest level to reach the spray arm more easily. To install the spray arm back, press the spray arm upwards and simultaneously turn it counterclockwise until it locks into place. We recommend to clean the ceiling spray arm regularly to prevent soil from clogging the holes.
