OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1 Safety Instructions

The safety aspects of AEG electrical appliances comply with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. Neverthe- less, as a manufacturer we consider it our obligation to make you aware of the following safety information:

Installation, Connection and Placing into Operation

???The dishwasher may only be transported upright.

???Check the dishwasher for transport damage. Do not in any circum- stances connect an appliance that is damaged. In the case of damage, please contact your retailer.

???Before installing the appliance, ensure that the nominal voltage and type of supply on the rating plate match that of the supply where the appliance is to be installed. The fuse rating is also to be found on the rating plate.

???For information on how to correctly install and connect up your dish- washer, please read the ???Installation??? section. Adaptors / connectors and extension cables must not be used.

Child Safety

???This appliance is designed to be operated by adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper with the controls or play with the product.

???Keep all packaging away from children.

???Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children???s reach.

???The water in your dishwasher is not suitable for drinking. If there are still remnants of detergent in the appliance, there is a risk of burns!

???When disposing of an old appliance, cut off the power supply cable and remove any door catches, to prevent young children being trapped inside.

General Safety

???Repairs to the dishwasher are only to be carried out by qualified serv- ice engineers. Improper repairs can give rise to significant hazards for the user. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact your local AEG Service Force Centre.

5

Operating Instructions

???Never place the dishwasher in operation if the mains cable, water inlet or drain hose is damaged; or the control panel, work top or plinth area is damaged such that the inside of the appliance is freely accessible.

???If the mains lead is damaged, or is to be replaced for a longer lead, the cable (obtainable from AEG Service Force) must be replaced by a service engineer authorised by AEG.

???Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable, always pull the plug.

???Additions or modifications to the dishwasher are not permitted for safety reasons.

???Ensure that the door of the dishwasher is always closed when it is not being loaded or unloaded. In this way you will avoid anybody tripping over the open door and hurting themselves.

???Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential haz- ard.

???Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.

???When finished loading or unloading, close the door as an open door can be a hazard.

Correct Use

???Only wash household dishes using the dishwasher. If the appliance is used for other purposes, or is used incorrectly, the manufacturer can- not accept any liability for any damage caused.

???Only use detergents specifically designed for use in domestic dish- washers.

???Do not put any solvents in the dishwasher. There is a risk of an explo- sion!

???The anti-flood system provides dependable protection against dam- age due to leaks. For this system to function correctly, the following preconditions must be met:

???The appliance must remain connected to the mains even when it is switched off.

???The dishwasher must be correctly installed.

???Always shut off the water supply at the tap when the dishwasher is not to be used for longer periods, e.g. when you are away on holiday.

???Do not sit or stand on the open door, the appliance may tip over.

6

Operating Instructions

???In the event of a fault, first close the tap, then switch off the appli- ance and unplug it from the mains. If the appliance is permanently wired to the mains: remove the fuse.

2 Disposal

Disposing of the Packaging Material

Dispose of the dishwasher packaging material correctly. All the packag- ing materials used are harmless to the environment and can be recy- cled.

??? Plastic parts are marked with standard international abbreviations:

???Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper and should be deposited in the waste paper collection for recycling.

Disposal of Old Appliances

When disposing of old appliances, remove the plug and ensure that any locks or catches are removed to prevent young children becoming trapped inside.

Use an authorised disposal site.

2Economical and Ecological Dishwashing

???Ensure that the water softener is correctly adjusted.

???Do not pre-rinse dishes under running water.

???When you wash a small load, the load sensor calculates the amount of water necessary and shortens the programme. It is more economi- cal to always wash with a full load.

???Select the wash programme to suit the nature and degree of the soil- ing on the dishes.

???Do not use more detergent, special salt or rinse aid than is recom- mended in these operating instructions and by the detergent manu- facturer.

Operating Instructions

Water softener

To avoid scale deposits on the dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft water, i.e. water with a low lime content. The dishwasher therefore has a built-in water softener, in which tap water with a hardness of 4??d (German degree) and harder is softened with the aid of special salt.

1)The water hardness will only be indicated acoustically if the acoustic signal has been activated.

2)(??d) German degree, measure of the hardness of water

3)[mmol/l] millimol per litre, international unit for the hardness of water

4)On this setting the length of the dishwashing cycle may be slightly longer.

Operating Instructions

Setting the water softener

Using the table as a guide, adjust the water softener to that which cor- responds to the hardness of the water in your area:

0 The dishwasher must be switched off.

Setting manually:

1. Open the dishwasher door.

2. Remove the lower rack from the dishwasher.

3. Turn the hardness range switch to 0 or 1 (see table).

4. Replace the lower rack.

Setting electronically:

5.Press the ON/OFF button.

The LED indicators for all the buttons in the control panel that are now able to be selected will become illuminated.

3 If the only LED indicator illuminated is one that belongs to a pro- gramme button, this means that this dishwashing cycle has been acti- vated. The dishwashing cycle must be cancelled (RESET):

Press function buttons 2 and 3 simultaneously for approx.1 second. The LED indicators for all the buttons in the control panel that are now able to be selected will become illuminated.

6.Press function buttons 2 and 3 simultaneously and keep them pressed. The LED indicators for function buttons 1 to 3 will flash.

7.Press function button 1.

Operating Instructions

Special salt for the water softener

3 If the water hardness in your area is less than 4 ??d, then the water in your dishwasher does not need to be softened and you do not need to use special salt or salt substitute.

Water can be softened in one of two ways:

???If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains salt sub- stitute, the detergent only is put into the detergent compartment.

???In this case the water softener must manually be set to 0 and electronically to 1 to ensure that no special salt is added.

???If you are using dishwasher detergent and special salt separately, the special salt is to be put into the salt container.

???In this case the water softener must manually be set to 0 and electronically to between 2 and 10 (depending on the water hardness in your area) to ensure that the special salt is dispensed from the salt container.

1Only use special salt intended for dishwashers. Never fill the salt supply container with different types of salt (e.g. cooking or table salt) or detergent. This would destroy the water softener.

Prior to filling with salt, please check each time that you really do have a packet of special salt in your hand.

together with the programme, the inflow of special salt does not have to be deactivated (see ???3 in 1 function???).

0 1. Set the water softener manually and electronically to the desired water hardness:

vated.

the salt container with salt.

cause for concern, the water will be pumped out at the start of the next wash programme.

5.Clean any salt remnants on the container opening.

6.Turn the lid clockwise to the stop, otherwise dishwasher salt will leak into the wash water, this could lead to poor wash results. To avoid this run a rinse programme after filling the salt container with special salt. This will wash away salt water and any salt crystals that have been spilt.

3 Depending on the size of the salt grains, it can take several hours for the salt to dissolve in the water and the special salt indicator J to extinguish. The setting of the water softener and the consumption of salt are dependent on the hardness of the local water.

Operating Instructions

Use of "3 in 1"/ Combi Detergent Tablets

General Advice

These products are tablets with combined detergent/rinse-aid and salt functions.

0 1. Before using these products you should first check that the water hard- ness in your supply is compatible with the use of these products as per the detergent manufacturers instructions (on the product packaging).

2.These products should be strictly used according to the detergent manufacturers instructions.

1Do not place the tablets in the tub or the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent doser.

3.If you encounter problems when using "3 in1" products for the first time then please contact the detergent manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on the product packaging).

Special Advice

When using combination products, the rinse-aid and salt lights are no longer useful. It may be helpful therefore to switch the rinse aid off - please note that only some dishwashers have this facility - and selec- ting the lowest possible setting for water hardness.

For more information please refer to your instruction manual.

If you decide to switch to the use of a standard detergent system we advise that you:

???Refill both the salt and rinse aid compartments.

???Switch the waterhardness setting to the highest possible position and run for three normal cycles without a load.

???Readjust the waterhardness setting again according to the conditions for your region (as per the instruction manual).

24

Operating Instructions

Concentrated Detergent

Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be split into two basic types:

???conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components

???low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.

2 The use of 50 ??C wash programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated detergent. For this reason 50 ??C wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65 ??C pro- grammes.

Detergent tablets

3 Detergent tablets of different makes dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot develop their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use wash pro- grammes with pre wash when using detergent tablets.

25

Operating Instructions

Selecting the Wash Programme (Programme Table)

Choose the most suitable wash programme with the aid of this table:

1)This programme is not suitable when left-overs have dried on.

2)Test programme for test institutes

3)The ECO 50?? wash programme washes normally soiled dishes with a very low electric- ity consumption. If the dishes need to be washed more quickly, as an alternative you can use the NORMAL 50?? wash programme.

4)Noise levels vary at different stages of the wash programme as at some programme stages the dishes are washed more energetically so that they will be cleaned more thoroughly.

5)The consumption figures were determined under standard conditions. They are intended as a guide only and depend on the loading. For this reason figures may vary in practice.

6)When the hardness setting is electronically adjusted to 10, the length of the dishwash- ing cycle may be slightly longer.

26

Operating Instructions

4.Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF button.

Load Sensing ??? Sensor Logic

If a wash programme is started even though there are only a few dishes in the upper and/or lower basket, an intelligent electronic system adjusts the amount of water and the duration of the wash programme to the number of dishes. By this means it is possible to wash only a few dishes quickly and economically. At half load (6 place settings), up to 2 litres of water and 0.2 kWh of electricity are saved.

28

Operating Instructions

Switching off the dishwasher

0 1. Open the door carefully.

2.Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF button. All display indicators will go out.

If you do not switch off the dishwasher, the acoustic signal will sound again 3 minutes later and 6 minutes later.

3 Removing the dishes

???Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool before they are removed.

???Leave the dishes in the dishwasher for approximately 15 minutes fol- lowing the end of the programme to enable better drying and cool- ing down of dishes.

???Empty the lower basket first, then the upper basket. This will avoid water spots, which are caused by remaining water in the upper bas- ket dripping onto the dishes in the lower basket.

Care and Cleaning

??? If necessary, clean the controls only with a soft cloth and pure warm water.

??? Occasionally check the internal containers, door seal, and water inlet for soiling, clean if necessary.
