Preventing material damage
2.1Safe use
Follow the instructions when using the appliance.
NOTICE: Unsuitable cleaning products may damage the appliance. Do not use a steam cleaner. So as not to scratch the finish
on the appliance, do not use sponges with a rough surface or abrasive cleaning agents. To prevent corrosion, do not use cellulose sponge cloths on dishwashers with a stainless steel front or rinse the cloths thoroughly several times before using them for the first time. Escaping water vapor can damage cabinetry. When the program ends, let the appliance cool down a bit before opening the door. Special salt for dishwashers can damage the tub due to corrosion. To make sure that any special salt that escapes is washed out of the tub, add the special salt to the dispenser for special salt immediately before the program starts. Detergent may damage the water softening system. Only fill the dispenser of the water softening system with special dishwasher salt. Harsh chemicals such as bleachbased products can damage your dishwasher. Do not use harsh chemicals such as bleach-based products to clean your dishwasher.
Preventing material damageen-us
Protect your appliance from the elements. Protect against freezing to
avoid possible damage to the fill valve. Damage caused by freezing is not covered by the warranty.
Environmental protection and energy-saving
3Environmental protection and energy-saving
Environmental protection and energy-saving
3.1Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less power and water.
Use the Normal program. a The Normal program is energy-
efficient and environmentally friendly. "Dishwasher Cycles", Page 15
If you do not have much dishware to wash, use the additional Half Load option.1 a The program will adjust to a
lower load and consumption will be reduced.
Zeolith drying automatically helps to save energy. a "Zeolith drying ", Page 9
3.2Zeolith drying
The appliance features a Zeolith container. Zeolith drying lets you save energy. Zeolite is a mineral that can store moisture and energy and then release them again.
1 Depending on the appliance specifications 9
en-usEnvironmental protection and energy-saving
During dishwashing energy is used to heat up the washing water and dry the mineral. During the drying phase, moisture from the interior of the dishwasher is stored in the mineral and heat is released. The heat is blown out into the interior of the dishwasher with dry air. This speeds up and improves drying. Zeolith drying therefore saves a great deal of energy. Note: To avoid impairing Zeolith drying performance, do not position dishware parts directly in front of the intake opening or the blow opening of the Zeolith container. Do not position heat-sensitive dishware parts directly in front of the blow opening of the Zeolith container. "Appliance", Page 11
3.3AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical measuring device (light barrier) which measures the turbidity of the washing water. You can save water with the AquaSensor. The operation of the AquaSensor depends on the selected cycle. If the soiling level is high, the washing water is drained off and replaced with fresh water. If the soiling level is lower, the washing water is used in the next wash cycle, so reducing water consumption by 3-6 liters. In the Auto cycles the temperature and run time are additionally adjusted to the level of soiling.

5.1Energy Guide
The Energy Guide label was based on the Normal soil sensing cycle. The unit was tested without any rinse aid (liquid) in the rinse aid dispenser. A single dose of detergent was inserted into the detergent dispenser, with no detergent being used in the prewash. The unit was not subjected to truncated testing per the definitions in the test procedure. We recommend that dish loads such as the one in the energy certification test have the rack position set in the highest position. Recommended for daily, regular or typical use to completely wash a full load of normally soiled dishes.

Detergent
Find out which detergents are suitable for your appliance.
11.1The correct detergents
Only use detergents that are made for dishwashers, either basic or combination detergents. For the best washing and drying results, use a separate detergent, then add Special salt and Rinse aid Page 24 separately. Modern, powerful detergents mainly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes. Enzymes break down starch and remove protein. Oxygen-based bleaching agents are generally used to remove colored stains, e.g. tea or ketchup.
Note: Follow the manufacturer's instructions for each detergent.
25
en-usDetergent
Detergent Description
Tabs
Tabs are perfect for all cleaning functions and do not need to be measured out. However, with shorter Cycles Page 15 some-
times tabs do not dissolve entirely and leave residues of detergent. This may reduce its effectiveness.
Powder detergent
Powder detergent is recommended for shorter cycles. The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.
Liquid detergent
Liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for shorter cycles without a pre-rinse. Sometimes liquid detergent may leak out despite the detergent dispenser being closed. This is not a problem, just remember the following: ¡ Only choose a cy-
cle without PreRinse. ¡ Do not use the Delay Start option.
The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.
26
11.2Incompatible detergents
Do not use a detergent which is not designated for dishwasher use or contains chlorine.
Detergent Liquid hand soap
Detergent containing chlorine
Description
Liquid hand soap can cause increased frothing and damage the appliance.
This may leave chlorine residue on dishware.
11.3Information on
Detergent
Follow the instructions on detergents in everyday use. ¡ Detergents marked as "ecologi-
cal" (environmentally friendly) generally contain lower levels of active agents or none at all. The cleaning effect may be reduced. ¡ Adjust the rinse aid and the water softening system settings in accordance with the detergent or combination detergent in use. ¡ According to manufacturers, combination detergents with salt replacement substances can only be used up to a certain water hardness, usually 26 °E, without adding special salt. For the best washing and drying results we recommend using special salt from a water hardness of 17 °E. ¡ Any rinse aid component of a combination detergent has limited effectiveness. You will have better results using a separate rinse aid.
¡ To prevent sticking, only touch detergents in a water-soluble pouch with dry hands and only ever place them in a dry detergent dispenser.
¡ Even if the rinse aid and special salt refill indicators light up, the wash cycles will run properly with combination detergents.
¡ Use tablets with enhanced drying results.
11.4Adding Detergent
1. To open the detergent dispenser, press the locking latch.
2. Add the detergent to the dry detergent dispenser.
3 tbsp (45 ml) 1.75 tbsp
(25 ml)
1 tbsp (15 ml)
If you are using tablets, one is enough. Insert the tablets in a horizontal position. If you are using powder or liquid detergent, follow the manufacturer's instructions and quantities for dosage in the detergent dispenser. 1.5 to 1.75 Tbsp (20 ml 25 ml) detergent is sufficient for normal soiling. If dishware is only lightly soiled, slightly less than the amount of detergent specified is usually sufficient.
Detergenten-us
3. Close the lid of the detergent dispenser.
a The lid clicks into position.
a The detergent dispenser will open automatically at the optimum time during the cycle. Powder or liquid detergent will spread around the washing tank and dissolve there. Tablets will fall into the tablet collecting tray and dissolve in the right dosage. In order to ensure that tablets can dissolve evenly, do not place any other objects in the tablet collecting tray.
Tip: If you use powder detergent and select a cycle with pre-rinse, you can also add a little detergent to the interior door of the appliance.

en-usStatement of Limited Product Warranty
appliance sold to you ("Product"), provided that the Product was purchased: ¡ For your normal, household
(non-commercial) use, and has in fact at all times only been used for normal household purposes. ¡ New at retail (not a display, "as is", or previously returned model), and not for resale, or commercial use. ¡ Within the United States or Canada, and has at all times remained within the country of original purchase.
The warranties stated herein apply to the original purchaser of the product warranted herein and to each succeeding owner of the product purchased for ordinary home use during the term of the warranty. Please make sure to return your registration card; while not necessary to effectuate warranty coverage, it is the best way for BSH to notify you in the unlikely event of a safety notice or product recall.
21.2How Long the
Warranty Lasts
BSH warrants that the Product is free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of three hundred sixty-five (365) days from the date of the original purchase. The foregoing timeline begins to run upon the date of the original purchase, and shall not be stalled, tolled, extended, or suspended, for any reason whatsoever. This Product is also warranted to be free from cosmetic defects in material and workmanship (such as scratches of stainless steel, paint/ porcelain blemishes, chip, dents, or other damage to the finish) of the Product, for a period of thirty
(30) days from the date of purchase or closing date for new construction. This cosmetic warranty excludes slight color variations due to inherent differences in painted and porcelain parts, as well as differences caused by kitchen lighting, product location, or other similar factors. This cosmetic warranty specifically excludes any display, floor, "As Is", or "B" stock appliances.

Statement of Limited Product Warrantyen-us
21.4Repair/Replace as
Your Exclusive
Remedy
During this warranty period, BSH or one of its authorized service providers will repair your Product without charge to you (subject to certain limitations stated herein) if your Product proves to have been manufactured with a defect in materials or workmanship. If reasonable attempts to repair the Product have been made without success, then BSH will replace your Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in BSH's sole discretion, for an additional charge). Nothing in this warranty requires damaged or defective parts to be replaced with parts of a different type or design than the original part. All removed parts and components shall become the property of BSH at its sole option. All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity of the original part for purposes of this warranty and this warranty shall not be extended with respect to such parts. BSH's sole liability and responsibility hereunder is to repair manufacturer-defective Product only, using a BSH authorized service provider during normal business hours. For safety and property damage concerns, BSH highly recommends that you do not attempt to repair the Product yourself, or use a non-authorized service provider; BSH will have no responsibility or liability for repairs or work performed by a non-authorized service provider. Authorized service providers are those persons or companies that have been specially trained on BSH products, and who possess, in BSH's opinion, a superior reputation for customer service and
technical ability (note that they are independent entities and are not agents, partners, affiliates or representatives of BSH). Notwithstanding the foregoing, BSH will not incur any liability, or have responsibility, for the Product if it is located in a remote area (more than 100 miles from an authorized service provider) or is reasonably inaccessible, hazardous, threatening, or treacherous locale, surroundings, or environment; in any such event, if you request, BSH would still pay for labor and parts and ship the parts to the nearest authorized service provider, but you would still be fully liable and responsible for any travel time or other special charges by the service company, assuming they agree to make the service call.

other than its normal, customary and intended manner (including without limitation, any form of commercial use, use or storage of an indoor product outdoors, use of the Product in conjunction with air or watergoing vessels).
