Safety instructions
The safety of AEG electrical appliances conforms to accepted rules of
technology and the Appliance Safety Act. We as manufacturers, however, see
ourselves as being obliged to familiarise you with the following safety
instructions.
Using your dishwasher for its intended purpose
Only use your dishwasher for machine washing of household crockery. If
your machine is misused or used for any purposes other than that
for which it is intended, the manufacturer cannot be held liable for any
damage caused.
For safety reasons, you should not convert or modify your dishwasher in
any way.
Before using your dishwasher for the first time
Check your dishwasher for any transport damage. Never connect a
damaged machine. If your dishwasher is damaged, you should contact
your supplier.
Your dishwasher must be correctly installed and connected. Please read
the section on "Installation" to make sure you know all about this.
Before using your dishwasher for the first time, do not forget that the
nominal voltage and current type indicated on the rating plate of your
machine must be the same as the nominal voltage and current type at the
installation site. The necessary electrical fusing is also given on the rating
plate.
Child safety
Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for
children,who could even be suffocated! You should therefore keep all
packaging well away from children.
Children may not recognise the dangers of improper use of electrical
appliances. You should therefore ensure proper supervision during
operation and not allow your children to play with your dishwasher.
Detergents may have a caustic effect on eyes, mouth and throat and may
even cause suffocation! Keep all detergents in a safe place out of
children’s reach.
4
The water in your dishwasher should not be used for drinking. Detergent
residues may still be present in your machine. Make sure you do not
splash these caustic residues onto your skin or suffocate yourself! Keep
children well away from your dishwasher when its door is open.
Your dishwasher in day-to-day use
Never operate your dishwasher if the electrical supply lead, supply or
drainhose, control panel, worktop or plinth are damaged.
If there is a fault, first turn the water tap off. Then switch off your
machine and pull the plug out of the socket. If there is a fixed
connection, switch off or unscrew the fuse(s).
Never pull the plug out of the socket by the cable - always hold the plug.
Dishwasher repairs should only be performed by trained personnel.
Improper repairs may seriously endanger the user. If your dishwasher
needs to be repaired, you should contact our service centre or your
retailer.
Never place any solvents in your dishwasher or you may cause an
explosion!
Do not rest or sit on the open door or the machine could tilt.
Before using special dishwasher salt, detergent or rinse-aid, make sure
that the manufacturer of these products expressly specifies their use in
domestic dishwashers.
Always turn off the water tap when your dishwasher is left unattended
for any length of time, e.g. when you are away on holiday.
Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position. Tipping it upside
down during transport could cause salty water to leak into the internal
compartment and lead to the formation of rust.
5
Disposing of packaging and old machine
Warning! Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be
dangerous for children, who could even be suffocated! You
should therefore keep all packaging well away from children.
Disposing of the packaging
Our dishwashers require effective protective packaging in transit, though we
always confine ourselves to what is absolutely necessary.
All packaging materials used are environmentally compatible and reusable.
The cardboard parts are produced from recycled paper, and the wood is
untreated.
The plastics are marked as follows:
>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. packaging foils.
>PS< for polystyrene, e.g. padding (essentially CFC-Free).
>POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clamps.
Give the packaging for reuse to your local recycling centre. Your municipal or
local authority will give you its address.
6
Marking of plastic parts for graded recycling: all plastic parts in your
machine are marked with internationally standardised abbreviations (e.g.
<PS> for polystyrene). When your machine is disposed of, this enables plastic
waste to be sorted into individual types for environmentally conscious
recycling.
Take your decommissioned machine to your local recycling centre or dealer,
who will take it back from you for a small handling charge.
Warning! Children at play could lock themselves in your
machine (and suffocate) or otherwise endanger their lives.
Therefore pull out the main plug and detach and discard the
electrical supply lead.
Disable the door lock so that the door no longer closes.
Disposing of your old machine
When your machine finally reaches the end of its life and you withdraw it
from service, you should render it unserviceable before having it disposed of.
7
Operating your dishwasher economically and with regard
for the environment
Collect your dirty dishes, stack them in the dishwasher, and only wash them
when both baskets are full, making sure that the latter are never overloaded.
Only then can you be sure that you are machine-washing economically and
with regard for the environment.
Always select the programme corresponding to the type of crockery and
degree of soiling (see "Washing programmes" chart).
Never overdose detergents, special salt or rinse-aid. Follow the dosage
recommendations in these operating instructions as well as the instructions
given by manufacturers of these products.
Make sure that the water softener is correctly set.
Unsuitable crockery
The following are unsuitable for machine washing:
- wooden boards or platters
- non-heat-resistant plastic parts
- lead crystal glass
- tin or copper items
- glued crockery or cutlery
- older types of cutlery with temperature-sensitive adhesive
- steel knives that are liable to rust
- cutlery with wood, horn, porcelain or mother-of-pearl handles.
Important hints
8
Suitable crockery
The following items have certain machine washing limitations:
- Only wash earthenware crockery in your dishwasher if the manufacturer
has expressly indicated it as being suitable for that purpose.
- Some types of decoration which have been painted over the glaze may
fade after frequent machine washing.
- Silver and aluminium parts tend to discolour during machine washing.
- Many food residues, such as egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause
discolouration or staining on silver. Silver crockery and cutlery should
therefore always be cleaned of food residues if they are not washed
immediately after a meal.
- Some types of glass may become cloudy after many washing cycles. You
should therefore continue to hand-wash especially valuable glassware.
When buying new crockery and cutlery, confirm that they are dishwasher-
safe.

As some products can be more efficient than others, please also pay attention to the
dosage instructions from the manufacturer of your brand. I f you use the modern
"compact" powders containing enzymes, we recommend as a fundamental rule that you
select the 50°C programme as the enzymes function at their most effectiveness at around
this temperature.

Before using your dishwasher for the first time
When your new dishwasher is correctly set up and installed, you must first
make it ready for use.
Before using your dishwasher for the first time, proceed as follows:
- set the water softener;
- fill the special salt container with special salt;
- fill the rinse-aid dispenser with rinse-aid.
The following sections give you more detailed information about the
individual points.
Setting the water hardness range
Soft (low-lime) water is necessary for machine washing to avoid lime
deposits on crockery and in your dishwasher. Tap water with a hardness
above 4°d (German degree) must therefore be softened for machine washing.
For this purpose, your dishwasher is fitted with a water softener. The water
softener is treated (regenerated) automatically and at regular intervals with
salt solution. The salt consumption needed for regeneration thus depends on
the local water hardness. Your local water company will provide you with
information about water hardness in your area.
To ensure optimum regeneration of the water softener:
- the water softening system must be set to the local water hardness;
- the dishwasher salt container must always be filled with special salt.
Your local Water Company will provide you with information about water
hardness in your area.

The dishwasher is factory set "level 4" as this suits most users.
If you use phosphate free detergents containing enzymes, add salt starting
from 4°dH (7° TH).
To set a different level, proceed as follows:
The level setting is possible only with the dishwasher turned off.
Press and keep pressed the "NORMAL BIO 50°" programme pushbutton.
Press the on/off pushbutton.
Keep pressed the "NORMAL BIO 50°" programme pushbutton for
approximately 5 seconds until the pilot light of the "NORMAL BIO50°"
programme starts to flash indicating the setting of level "2" (factory setting).
Press the programme pushbutton corresponding to the required level, (see
chart).
After 5 seconds the pilot light will turn off and the dishwasher will memorise
the new level setting.
If your water is level "0" it is already soft and therefore there is no need to
use salt. In this case do not take into account the salt light on the control
panel, which illuminates when there is no salt inside the salt container.
Salt MUST be used regularly from level "1" upward if you use the new
compact detergent containing enzymes.

Filling with special salt
Only use salt designed specifically for use in dishwashers. Other types of salt
i.e. table/cooking salt contain high percentages of other substances which
may reduce the efficiency of the softener.
Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very
similar. The accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would
ruin the water softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you
have in your hand really is salt.
To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container. Pour about half a litre
of water into the container, or until it is full (this is only necessary before
filling with salt for the first time).
Pour inside the container about 1 kg of regenerating salt.
Clean any excess salt from the screw thread and the washer and carefully
close the cap.
Salt refill indicator
When this has been done, all that is required is to periodically top up the
container with salt.
You are reminded of this by the salt refill indicator light on the control panel
which will illuminate when the salt has finished.
Important: The salt refill indicator light on the control panel can remain
illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuring the
dishwasher remains on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve
then this can take longer. The function of the dishwasher is not affected.

Caution: Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing
programmes (not the RINSE ANDHOLD programme). This will prevent any
grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the
bottom of the machine for any period of time, which could cause corrosion.
The rinse-aid
The rinse-aid ensures brilliant crockery and also helps it to dry. It is
automatically dosed in during the hot rinsing cycle. The storage
compartment built in to the in side of the door can hold about 110 ml of
rinse-aid, which will be sufficient for between 16 and 40 dishwashing
programmes, according to the dosage setting.
Filling up the rinse-aid
Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise (Fig. 3). Pour the
rinse-aid into the filler opening until the indicator (B) on the side of the
cover turns completely dark (i.e. until the container is full)
Rinse aid replenishment indicator
Top up with rinse aid when the rinse aid control light on the control panel
flashes (approx. 70 - 80 ml).
Tighten firmly the cover.
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid
excess foaming during the next wash.

Setting the rinse aid quantity to be added
The correct dosage of the rinse-aid should be regulated on the basis of the
shine and drying results. For this purpose, set the quantity of liquid by means
of the six-position selector (C) located on the inside of the filler opening
(minimum quantity is position 1, maximum quantity is position 6). Use the
tip of a knife or a screwdriver to rotate the selector. If drops of water or
white marks remain on the crockery after it has been washed, gradually
increase the dosage. If the crockery comes out with whitish, sticky streaks,
reduce the dosage.
Adding dishwashing detergent
Use only tablets, powder or liquid detergents specifically designed for
domestic dishwashers.
Before starting any of the dishwashing programmes, except for the rinse and
hold programme, load the detergent in the dispenser. To open the dispenser
lid, pull the catch (D). This will open it. To help you to correctly dose the right
amount of detergent, inside the container there are two reference marks:
- MIN = 15 ml - MAX = 30 ml

The amount of detergent to be used varies depending on how soiled the
dishes are and the type of dishes being washed. We recommend the amounts
shown in the programme chart.
After filling the dispenser with detergent, close the lid.
All the programmes with prewash require a small extra amount of detergent
to be poured over the lid of the dispenser, as shown on the picture.
At the end of any washing programme the lid is always open, ready for the
next wash.
Since not all detergents are the same, you should also consult the
instructions on the packet.
Remember that insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor
washing results whereas an excessive amount of detergent does not improve
washing results and is also wasteful.
DE11
Using no more than correct amount of detergent also contributes to
reducing pollution.

BIO programmes and compact powders
On the basis of their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be
classified into two groups:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components:
- low-alkaline compact powders with natural enzymes.
The enzymes in low-alkaline compact powders have a dirt-dissolving effect
and are also biodegradable. These enzymes deploy their full dirt-dissolving
power within a temperature range of 40-50°C. In BIO washing programmes,
the temperature range and duration of the heating phases are precisely
matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes.
In combination with low-alkaline compact powders, BIO washing
programmes, at a temperature as low as 50°C, therefore achieve the same
cleaning results that would otherwise be achievable only with 65°C
programmes.
The lack of any caustic components in low-alkaline compact powders and the
lower cleaning temperature of BIO washing programmes not only relieve the
environment, but also care for your crockery.
