Important Safety Instructions - Save This Information
•
This appliance must be grounded to a metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment grounding conductor must be run with the
circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher. See the
Installation Instructions
included with this dishwasher for more information on electrical requirements.
•
•
Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dishware and kitchenware.
This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual . Read and understand all instructions
before using the dishwasher.
•
•
Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
When loading items to be washed:
-
-
Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal.
Load knives and other sharp utensils with their HANDLES UP to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
•
Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
•
•
•
•
•
Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in place.
Do not tamper with or override controls and interlocks.
Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more.
Hydrogen gas is explosive. Before using a dishwasher that is connected to a hot water system that has been unused for two weeks or
longer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water ꢁow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydro
gen gas. As the gas is explosive, do not smoke or use an open ꢁame during this time.

Clean the Exterior Door Panel
Colored Doors
Use only a soft cloth that is lightly dampened with soapy water.
Stainless Steel Doors
Use a soft cloth with a non-abrasive cleaner (preferably a liquid spray) made for cleaning stainless steel. For the best results,
apply the stainless steel cleaner to the cloth, then wipe the surface.
Clean the Door Gasket and Door Seal
Regularly clean the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove food particles and other debris. Also clean the door seal, located
inside the dishwasher at the bottom of the door.
Wash Cycle Information
To save energy, this dishwasher has a “Smart Control” that automatically adjust the cycle based on soil loads and incoming
water temperature. The “Smart Control” makes decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust intermittently.
The cycle times listed in the Use and Care manual are based on normal soil loads and 120°F incoming water and will vary based
on your actual conditions.
See the Available Cycles Chart to determine the cycles available for your specific model.
On select models, the Half Load feature will reduce the water consumption by approximately 30 percent in the Power Scrub
Plus, Regular, and Auto Wash cycles.
On select models, the ECO feature will reduce energy consumption by approximately 10-25 percent depending on cycle chosen.
If additional drying heat is selected, the cycle will be extended by approximately 20 minutes.
If the unit is out of rinse agent, the Öko DRY feature will automatically extend the cycle time by approximately 10 minutes.
If Pre Soak is selected, the cycle will be extended by approximately 15 minutes.
THE NSF S YMBOL
A dishwasher or a dishwasher cycle that has the NSF symbol has been certified by the NSF International to meet very strict
requirements of wash time and water temperature to ensure dishware and kitchenware sanitization. These requirements are
explained in the document NSF/ANSI 184, Residential Dishwashers. More information on NSF Certification is available at the
Your dishwasher is NSF certified. The dishwasher cycles that are NSF certified are shown in the chart above. When these cycles
are complete, the “Sanitized” indicator on your dishwasher control panel will illuminate.
NOTE : If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher’s heating time may be reduced and the “Sanitized” light or
symbol may not illuminate. Your Dishwasher Installation Manual has information on the recommended temperature for your
household hot water supply.

Self Help
Dishwashers may occasionally exhibit problems that are unrelated to a malfunction of the dishwasher itself. The following information
may help you with a dishwasher problem without your having to call a repair person.
Dishes do not dry
The rinse agent dispenser may be empty. Check the rinse-aid dispenser and refill it if necessary. Dishware drying can be accelerated and
enhanced by opening the dishwasher door slightly and propping it open with the top rack.
Indicator light(s) do not come on
A fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker tripped. Check the fuse or circuit breaker at your fuse box/breaker box and replace the fuse or
reset the breaker if necessary.
Dishwasher does not start
The dishwasher door may not be properly shut. Make certain the dishwasher door is shut and latched.
Dishwasher runs a long time
If the dishwasher completes the cycle, but the run time seems exceptionally long, it may be due to cold incoming water. Before starting
the dishwasher, open the hot water faucet at the sink nearest the dishwasher. Run the water until it runs hot, then turn off the water and
start the dishwasher.
Machine cycle does not advance to rinse
NOTE: The Installation Manual that came with your dishwasher will help you with the following instructions. The water supply line may
be shut off. Check the water supply valve and open it if it’s shut.
White spots left on dishes
More rinse agent is needed. Go to the Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent section of this manual for instructions on increasing the
amount of rinse agent dispensed.
Water not pumped from dishwasher
Make certain the drain hose isn’t kinked, clogged, or improperly installed. Make certain a portion of the drain hose is at least 20 inches
above the dishwasher’s enclosure floor (see the Installation Manual). Filters may be clogged. Make certain the filter system isn’t clogged
(see the Care and Maintenance section of this manual). The kitchen sink drain may be clogged; you may need a plumber rather than a
serviceman for the dishwasher. If an air gap is installed at sink, it may be clogged.
Detergent dispenser cover will not shut
You may not be correctly shutting the detergent dispenser cover, or a cycle was not finished and should be cancelled. Go to the Adding
Detergent and Rinse Agent section of this manual for instructions on shutting the detergent dispenser cover. Go to the Operating the
Dishwasher section of this manual for instructions on canceling a cycle.
Streaks on glassware
Too much rinse agent is being dispensed. Go to the Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent section of this manual for instructions on
decreasing the amount of rinse agent dispensed.
Rattling noises
Utensils may not be properly arranged.
Suds in dishwasher
You may have used the wrong type of dishwashing detergent. Use only automatic dishwasher detergents.

: During this warranty
period, Küppersbusch 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

the Product have been made without success, then Küppersbusch will
replace your Product (upgraded models may be available to you, in
Küppersbusch’s sole discretion, for an additional charge). All removed
parts and components shall become the property of Küppersbusch at its
sole option. All replaced and/or repaired parts shall assume the identity

non-authorized servicer. If you choose to have someone other than an
authorized service provider work on your Product, THIS WARRANTY WILL
