    Maintenance  and care
    A regular inspection and maintenance of your machine will help to prevent faults. This saves time and prevents problems. Therefore you should occasionally have 
    a careful look inside your dishwasher. 
    Overall  condition of the machine
    Check spray arm for grease and limescale deposits.
    If you find such deposits:
    Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent, start the appliance without utensils in the programme which hasthe highest wash temperature.
    Clean the appliance with detergents/appliance cleaners which are particularly suitable for use with dishwashers.
    Regularly wipe the door seal with a damp cloth to remove deposits.
    Never use a steam cleaner to clean your 
    dishwasher. The manufacturer is not liable for any consequential damage.
    Attention!
    Never use other chlorinated household detergents! Health hazard! 
    Special  Salt 
    When the salt level is low, your dishwasher displays a message in the 
    window. 
    Rinse aid 
    When the rinse aid level is low, your dishwasher displays a message in the 
    window. Filters The filters 
    26
     prevent larger remnants of
    food or other objects from getting inside the pump. This residue can occasionally clog up the filters. The filter system consists of a filter 
    cylinder, a flat fine filter and, depending on the model, a microfilter (*).
    Inspect the filters for obstructions every time the dishwasher has been used.
    By unscrewing the filter cylinder, you can remove the filter system. Remove any food remnants and clean the filters
    under running water.

    with the filter cylinder.Spray arms 
    Lime and remnants of food in the washing water can block the nozzles in the spray arms 
    23  and 24 and the arm
    mountings .
    Inspect the nozzles in the spray arms for blocked holes due to remnants of food.
    If necessary, pull the lower arm 24
    upwards and lift it off.

    Pump * *
     on applicable models
    Larger remnants of food that have not been trapped by the filters and have been left in the water can cause a blockage in the pump. The water is no longer pumped out of the dishwasher and it can be seen 
    covering the filter. Proceed as follows:
    First, always disconnect the appliance 
    from the power supply.
    Ladle out as much water as possible.
    Remove the filters 26 .
    Undo the screw in the cover (Torx T 20) 
    and remove the cover.
    Inspect the inside and remove any obstructions that you find.
    Re-insert the cover and screw down.
    Re-insert the filters and screw down.

    having to call out a service engineer. Not only does this save costs, but it also means that the appliance is available for 
    use again that much sooner. The following list of common occurrences and their remedies should help you identify the causes of most problems.

    Notes
    Disposal of your old appliance 
    Old appliances are not worthless rubbish. 
    Valuable raw materials can be reclaimed by recycling old appliances. Pull out the mains plug of the redundant 
    appliance. Cut off the power cord and discard with mains plug. 
    To prevent children from locking themselves in the appliance and
    suffocating, destroy the door lock and childproof lock (if fitted). 
    You received your new appliance in a protective shipping carton. All packaging materials are environmentally friendly andrecyclable. Please contribute to a better environment by disposing of packaging materials in an environmentally-friendly 
    manner. Please ask your dealer or inquire at your local authority about current means of disposal. Keep children away from the shipping carton and packaging components. 
    Danger of suffocation from folding cartons and plastic film. 
    Notes on comparison tests 
    You will find details of the conditions for the comparison tests on the additional ”Notes on comparison tests” sheet. The consumption values for the relevant programmes are given in the introduction. General
    Built-under and integrated appliances which are subsequently installed as free-standing appliances must be secured to prevent them from falling 
    over, e.g. by screwing them to the wall or by installing them under a continuous worktop which is screwed to the adjoining units.
    For Swiss version only: The appliance can be installed without 
    difficulty between wooden and plastic walls in a kitchen range. If the appliance is not connected via a plug, the installation side must feature an all-pole disconnector with a contact gap of at least 3 mm in order to satisfy the relevant safety regulations.

    38 Installation
    The dishwasher must be connected by a qualified technician to ensure correct 
    operation. The specifications for supply, drainage and connected load must fulfil the required criteria as stated in the following paragraphs or in the installation instructions. Install the appliance in the following sequence: – Check the delivery – Install the appliance – Connect the waste water – Connect the fresh water– Connect the power supply Delivery 
    Your dishwasher was checked at the factory to ensure that it was in perfect 
    working order. This may have left some 
    small water stains in the dishwasher. These will disappear after the first rinse cycle. Installation The required installation dimensions can be found in the installation instructions. Using the height-adjustable feet, adjust the appliance until it is level. Ensure that the 
    appliance is standing firmly. 
    Waste water connection 
    See the installation instructions for the required connection steps. If required, attach a siphon with drainage spigot. Using the enclosed parts, connect the waste water hose to the drainage spigot of the siphon. Ensure that the drainage hose is not kinked, crushed or twisted (ensure that there is no sealing cover which prevents the waster water from flowing away!). Fresh water connection Using the enclosed parts, connect the fresh water connection to the tap according to the installation instructions. Ensure that the fresh water connection is not kinked, crushed or twisted. When replacing the appliance, always connect a new water supply hose to the 
    water supply. The old supply hose must not be re-used. 
    Water pressure: Minimum 0,05 MPa (0,5 bar) – maximum 1 MPa (10 bar). 
    If the water pressure is higher, install a pressure reducing valve. Flow rate:Minimum of 10 litres per minute. 
    Water temperature: 
    We recommend that you use cold water. 
    If you do use hot water, the temperature should not exceed 60 
    °C.
    Electrical  connection 
    Connect the appliance only to 230 V alternating current via a correctly installed 
    socket with protective conductor. See rating plate for required fusing 
    32 . 
    The socket must be attached near the dishwasher and be freely accessible. The connection may be modified by an 
    electrician only. Use only a residual-current-operated circuit-breaker which features the 
    symbol. Only this circuit breaker guarantees compliance with the currently valid regulations.
     
    						
    							en39
    Removing the appliance 
    It is essential, when removing the appliance, to observe the following sequence: First, disconnect the appliance 
    from the power supply. Pull out the mains plug. 
    Turn off the water supply. Disconnect the waste water and fresh water connections. Loosen the fastening screws under the worktop. If fitted, remove the base panel. Pull out the appliance, carefully pulling the hose behind.

    Transport the appliance upright only. Otherwise, residual water may penetrate the control and damage the appliance. 
    Protection from freezing temperatures 
    If the appliance is installed in a location where there is a risk of freezing temperatures (e.g. in a holiday home), all water must be completely drained out of 
    the interior (see “Transporting thedishwasher”). 
    Turn OFF the tap, disconnect the supply hose and allow to drain. Waste disposal
