Test run
It is recommended that you carry out a test
run before the first dishwasher cycle in order
to remove residues from the manufacturing
process and in order to ensure that the device
functions perfectly.
If no water escapes during the test run and if
there are no unusual noises, the appliance is
ready to use.
Carry out this test run when the
dishwasher is empty and with-
out any dishwasher detergent.
See chapter „Dishwasher operation“ on page
EN-18 for the procedure.
