Leak Prevention System
For protection from damage due to water leaks, the dishwasher is
equipped with a leak prevention system.
In the event of a fault, the safety valve in the water inlet hose immedi-
ately interrupts the supply of water to the appliance and the drain
pump is activated. The remaining water in the appliance is automati-
cally pumped out.

The leak prevention system also works when the appliance is switched
off.
Electrical connection
1
In compliance with electric company technical requirements for mains
connections, hard-wired connections to the mains may only be made
by approved electri-cians.
When connecting the appliance, observe the German VDE regulations
and, if applicable, any additional conditions required by your local elec-
tricity supplier. Following installation, live parts and live insulated wir-
ing must not be accessible using a finger test in accordance with EN
60335/DIN VDE 0700.
Information on the electrical connection can be found on the rating
plate on the right side of the inner edge of the dishwasher door. If the
appliance has a change-over switch, the additional instructions on the
change-over diagram in the mains connector box must be observed.
Prior to connecting ensure that the mains voltage and current rating at
the site of installation match the nominal voltage and current rating
given on the rating plate. The required fuse protection is also to be
found on the rating plate.
To isolate the dishwasher from the mains, remove the mains plug.
Important: The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has
been installed.
If the appliance is hard-wired to the mains supply, then it must be
safely isolated from the mains within the electrical installation with
switches intended to ensure all-pole(N,L1) disconnection, shall be
directly connected to the supply terminals and shall have a contact
separation (fuses, cut outs, current trips or similar) of at least 3mm in
each pole.
