3. HOW TO USE THE APPLIANCE

PROGRAMME SELECTION

Press the button “Select programme” or the programme selector to display the selected programme. The

appliance must be switched on. If required, select possible options. The corresponding indicator lights up. The

correct programme and the selectable functions are given in table 1.1 on page 1.

Programme times stated in the table were obtained under normal conditions and may vary

depending on conditions. Differences of up to 20 minutes are possible with sensor programmes

as a result of the appliance's automatic calibration system.

HOW TO FILL THE DETERGENT DISPENSER

Only fill the detergent dispenser prior to starting a wash programme.

Only

use detergents

specially recommended for dishwashers, observing the manufacturer's recommended dosage.

Observe the manufacturer's safety warnings!

Open the detergent dispenser compartments by pushing the left lever (lever

) of the dispenser.

a. Powder/gel/tabs

Fill the detergent dispenser compartments in accordance with the wash programme selected (table 1.1).

Programmes without pre-wash:

pour the entire recommended dosage into compartment

Programmes with pre-wash:

pour 2/3 of the recommended dosage into the large compartment

and 1/3 into the small compartment

Dishwasher tabs should be placed, according to the

manufacturer's recommendations, in compartment

or in the

cutlery basket.

If the “Half load” option is selected, detergent dosage should be

reduced by approximately 1/3.

b. Combined action detergents (2 in 1/3 in 1/... etc.)

Combined action detergents should be placed, according to the

manufacturer's recommendations, in compartment

or in the

cutlery basket.

Firmly press the detergent compartment lid shut after filling.

Detergents with rinse aid incorporated may be effective only with longer programmes. In the

case of shorter programmes, detergent residue may be a problem (if necessary, use powder

detergent). Detergents with rinse aid incorporated tend to form excess suds.

The guarantee is not applicable if faults are caused by the use of these products.

HOW TO CHECK/FILL/ADJUST RINSE AID

Not necessary when using a combined action detergent.

a. How to check the rinse aid level

Check the visual indicator

on the rinse aid dispenser: dark = sufficient rinse aid, clear = add rinse aid.

In the case of appliances with an electric indicator on the

control panel, the rinse aid indicator lamp lights up red

when rinse aid needs to be added.

b. How to fill the rinse aid dispenser

Open the rinse aid dispenser by pressing the right lever

(lever

) of the dispenser.

Fill the dispenser with rinse aid up to the “max” line

(approx. 100 ml).

Shut the lid again.

Only use rinse aids recommended for use in domestic dishwashers.

Immediately

wipe away

any rinse aid spilt accidentally. This prevents the formation of excess suds which can cause a fault

function of the appliance.

The dishwasher does not heat the water anymore, why is that? Verified

Do I need to rinse my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? Verified

Rinsing the dishes is not necessary, but you do need to remove any large, hard and fat leftovers. These could clog the drain over time.

Can I open the dishwasher while it is running? Verified

Most dishwashers are equipped with a water stop, making the program stop immediately when the door is opened and meaning no water will come out. With some models this can cause problems over time. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

Should I open the dishwasher after it finished running to have the dishes dry quicker? Verified

This depends on the type of dishwasher and the location of the dishwasher. Some dishwashers are equipped with a feature that dries the dishes after the washing program. In that case opening the dishwasher will have no added value. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

After the dishwaser has finished its cycle, the plastic dishes are still wet but the rest isn't. Why is that? Verified

Plastic is a bad conductor of heat, allowing the products to cool down quickly. The moisture that remains on it then evaporates far less than for example on ceramics or metal.

Can I connect a dishwasher to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dishwasher, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dishwasher is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord cn handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

Can I put wooden objects such as spatulas and cutting boards in the dishwasher? Verified

No. Wooden objects can get damaged or warped in a dishwasher. Also, the wood fibres that come free might damage the dishwasher. Wooden cutting boards are often made with glue that can come loose after being in the dishwasher several times.

Can I put pans with Teflon in the dishwasher? Verified

Yes, you can. However, the pan will wear faster than when it is cleaned by hand. When cleaning a pan with Teflon by hand, never use a scourer but use a soft sponge or cloth.
