Detergent 10Detergent Detergent Find out which detergents are suitable for your appliance. 10.1The 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 Rinse aid Page 19 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. Detergent Description Tabs Tabs are perfect for all cleaning functions and do not need to be measured out. However, with shorter Cycles Page 13 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. 20 Detergent Description 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. 10.2Incompatible 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. Detergenten-us 10.3Information 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. ¡ 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. 10.4Adding Detergent 1. To open the detergent dispenser, press the locking latch. 21 en-usDishware 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. 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. 10.5Detergent table Detergent amount guidelines Auto Normal Heavy 1.75 Tbsp (25 ml) or 1 tab 1.75 Tbsp (25 ml) or 1 tab 3 Tbsp (45 ml) or 1 tab Dishware 11Dishware Dishware Only wash dishware that is suitable for dishwashers. Note: Decorated glassware and parts made of aluminum or silver may fade or discolor with dishwashing. Delicate types of glass may turn cloudy after a few wash cycles. 11.1Damage to glass and dishware Avoid damage to glass and dishware. Cause The following dishware is not suitable for dishwashers: ¡ Items of sil- verware and dishware made from wood Recommendation Only put dishware in the dishwasher if it is marked as suitable for dishwashers by the manufacturer. 22 Cause Recommendation ¡ Decorated glassware, antique and hand-crafted dishware ¡ Plastic dishware not resistant to heat ¡ Dishware made from copper or tin ¡ Dishware soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or paint ¡ Very small items of dishware Glass and dish- Only put ware is not suit- glasses and able for dish- china in the washers. dishwasher if it is marked as suitable for dishwashers by the manufac- turer.

The water temperature of the program is too high. Select a program with lower temperatures. After the cycle has ended, take glassware and silverware out of the appliance without delay. 11.2Loading dishware Arrange dishware correctly to optimize the dishwashing result and prevent damage to both dishware and the appliance. NOTICE: Avoid dishwasher damage Do not load the dishwasher with paper products, plastic bags, packing materials or anything other than normal, dishwasher safe dishware and kitchenware. Tips ¡ Using the appliance allows you to save energy and water compared to washing-up by hand. ¡ See our website for examples of how to load your appliance efficiently, free of charge. 23 en-usDishware ¡ To save energy and water, load the machine with the number of place settings specified. ¡ For better washing and drying results, position items with curves or recesses at an angle so water can run off. 1. Remove large remnants of food from dishware. To save resources, do not prerinse dishware under running water. 2. Observe the following when arranging dishware: Put heavily soiled dishware in the lower rack, e.g. pans. The more powerful spray jet ensures that the dishwashing result will be better. To avoid damage to dishware, arrange it so it is stable and cannot tip over. To avoid injury, arrange silverware with the points and sharp edges down. Position containers with the openings facing down so no water can collect in them. Do not block the spray arms - make sure that they can turn freely. Do not place small parts in the collecting tray and do not block it with dishware so as not to obstruct the lid of the detergent dispenser. 11.3Removing dishware CAUTION Dishes can be very hot immediately after the cycle ends.

Statement of Limited Product Warranty 20Statement of Limited Product Warranty Statement of Limited Product Warranty 20.1What this Warranty Covers & Who it Applies to The limited warranty provided by BSH Home Appliances ("BSH") in this Statement of Limited Product Warranty applies only to the BSH 49 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. 20.2How 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. 20.3Extended Warranty BSH also provides these additional limited warranties: ¡ 5 year limited warranty on elec- tronics: BSH will repair or replace any BSH microprocessor or printed circuit board if it proves to be defective in materials or workmanship (excludes labor charges). ¡ 5 year limited warranty on dish racks: BSH will replace the upper or lower dish rack (excluding rack components), if the rack proves defective in materials or workmanship (excludes labor charges). ¡ Lifetime warranty against stainless steel rust through: BSH will repair or replace your dishwasher with the same model or a current model that is substantially equivalent or better in functionality, if the inner liner should rust through (excludes labor charges). ¡ BSH will repair or replace the stainless steel door if the door should rust through (excludes labor charges). 50 Statement of Limited Product Warrantyen-us 20.4Repair/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. 20.5Out of Warranty Product BSH is under no obligation, at law or otherwise, to provide you with any concessions, including repairs, prorates, or Product replacement, once this warranty has expired. 20.6Warranty Exclusions The warranty coverage described herein excludes all defects or damage that are not the direct fault of BSH, including without limitation, one or more of the following: ¡ Use of the Product in anything 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). 51 en-usStatement of Limited Product Warranty ¡ Any party's willful misconduct, negligence, misuse, abuse, accidents, neglect, improper operation, failure to maintain, improper or negligent installation, tampering, failure to follow operating instructions, mishandling, unauthorized service (including selfperformed "fixing" or exploration of the appliance's internal workings). ¡ Adjustment, alteration or modification of any kind. ¡ A failure to comply with any applicable state, local, city, or county electrical, plumbing and/ or building codes, regulations, or laws, including failure to install the product in strict conformity with local fire and building codes and regulations. ¡ Ordinary wear and tear, spills of food, liquid, grease accumulations, or other substances that accumulate on, in, or around the Product. ¡ Any external, elemental and/or environmental forces and factors, including without limitation, rain, wind, sand, floods, fires, mud slides, freezing temperatures, excessive moisture or extended exposure to humidity, lightning, power surges, structural failures surrounding the appliance, and acts of God. ¡ Service calls to correct the installation of your Product, to instruct you how to use your Product, to replace house fuses or correct house wiring or plumbing. ¡ Removal and replacement of trim or decorative panels that interfere with servicing the Product. ¡ Damage or defects caused by labor or parts installed by any non-authorized service provider, unless approved by BSH before service is performed.

IN NO EVENT WILL THE MANUFACTURER BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, "BUSINESS LOSS", AND/ 52 Statement of Limited Product Warrantyen-us OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR EXPENSES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION TIME AWAY FROM WORK, HOTELS AND/OR RESTAURANT MEALS, REMODELLING EXPENSES IN EXCESS OF DIRECT DAMAGES WHICH ARE DEFINITIVELY CAUSED EXCLUSIVELY BY BSH, OR OTHERWISE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
