Your new dishwasher: A compact guide
To ensure you can use your new dishwasher safely and efficiently, it is important to carefully read the instruction manual before first use. It contains all the relevant information on installation, use, and maintenance. This guide provides a brief overview to help you get started.
1. Preparation
- Choose a level, stable location near water and electricity connections.

- Check that there is a water supply, water drain and a grounded electrical outlet.
2. Installation and commissioning
- Remove all packaging and check the device for damage.
- Connect the inlet hose tightly to the cold water connection and open the tap.
- Connect the drain hose so that it is not kinked.
- Plug the device into a grounded outlet – without using an extension cord.
- Perform an initial wash cycle without dishes to test the appliance and rinse away any manufacturing residues.
3. Correct use
- Load the dishwasher so that the spray arms can rotate freely.
- Delicate dishes such as glasses belong in the top basket.
- Use only suitable cleaning agents, rinse aids and salt, and dose them according to the manufacturer's instructions and water hardness.
- Choose the appropriate program depending on the degree of soiling and the material of the dishes.
4. Care and maintenance
