Preventing material damage

Safe installation

ATTENTION!

Improper installation of the appliance may cause damage.

●

If the dishwasher is installed above or below other do-

●

mestic appliances, follow the information on installa-

tion in combination with a dishwasher in the installa-

tion instructions for the individual appliances.

If there is no information or if the installation instruc-

●

tions do not include the relevant information, contact

the manufacturer of these appliances to check that the

dishwasher can be installed above or below these ap-

pliances.

If no information is available from the manufacturer,

●

the dishwasher should not be installed above or below

such appliances.

To ensure the safe operation of all domestic appli-

●

ances, continue following the installation instructions

for the dishwasher.

Do not install the dishwasher under a hob.

●

Do not install the dishwasher near heat sources, e.g.

●

radiators, heat storage tanks, ovens or other appli-

ances that generate heat.

Contact between the appliance and water pipes may lead

●

to corrosion of these pipes, possibly causing them to leak.

Check that there is a distance of at least 5 cm between

●

the appliance and the water pipe. The pipes supplied

for the drinking water and waste water connections are

not affected here.

Modified or damaged water hoses may result in material

●

damage and damage to the appliance.

Never kink, crush, modify or cut through water hoses.

●

Only use the water hoses supplied with the appliance

●

or genuine spare hoses.

Environmental protection and saving energy

Disposing of packaging

The packaging materials are environmentally compatible

and can be recycled.

Sort the individual components by type and dispose of

●

them separately.

Information about current disposal methods is available

from IKEA or your local authority.

Saving energy

If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less

electricity and less water.

Use the Eco 50 ° programme.

The Eco 50 ° programme is energy-efficient and environ-

mentally friendly.

Depending on the appliance specifications

Never re-use water hoses that have been used before.

●

If the water pressure is too high or too low, the appliance

●

may not be able to operate properly.

Make sure that the water pressure in the water supply

●

system is min. 50 kPa (0.5 bar) and max. 1000 kPa

(10 bar).

If the water pressure exceeds the maximum value spe-

●

cified, a pressure-reducing valve must be installed

between the drinking water connection and the hose

set of the appliance.

Safe use

ATTENTION!

Escaping water vapour can damage fitted units.

●

When the programme ends, leave the appliance to cool

●

down for a while 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 dis-

penser for special salt immediately before the pro-

gramme starts.

Detergent may damage the water softening system.

●

Only fill the dispenser of the water softening system

●

with special dishwasher salt.

Unsuitable cleaning agents 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 sponge cloths on

●

dishwashers with a stainless steel front or rinse such

cloths thoroughly several times before using them for

the first time.

If you do not have much tableware to wash, use the addi-

tional Half Load function.

The programme will adjust to a lower load and consump-

tion will be reduced.

Aqua sensor

The aqua sensor is an optical measuring device (light bar-

rier) which measures the turbidity of the washing water. You

can save water with the aqua sensor.

Use of the aqua sensor depends on the programme. If the

soiling level is high, the rinsing water is drained off and re-

placed with fresh water. If the soiling level is lower, the rins-

ing water is used in the next wash cycle, so reducing water

consumption by 3-6 litres. In the automatic programmes the

temperature and running time are additionally adjusted to

the level of soiling.
