Safety Instructions

The AEG ÖKO_FAVORIT 4070 Dishwasher complies with accepted technical standards and the German Appliance Safety Law. It should be transported upright, installed on a firm and level floor, and adjusted using its threaded feet to compensate for any floor unevenness. Never sit or stand on the open door as it may tip over. In case of faults, shut off the water supply and unplug the appliance.

Economical and Ecological Dishwashing

Connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply only if it's not electrically heated. Ensure the water softener is correctly adjusted. Use the recommended amount of detergent, special salt, and rinse aid. Select wash programmes based on the nature and degree of soiling on the dishes.

Wash Programmes

Choose the appropriate wash programme using the programme table. For heavily soiled dishes, use additional detergent in the pre-wash chamber. Bio wash programmes use concentrated detergents and operate efficiently at lower temperatures due to the enzymes in the detergent.

Energy and Water Usage

The dishwasher is designed to be energy and water-efficient. For half loads, it saves up to 2 litres of water and 0.2 kWh of electricity. Energy consumption varies by the programme, ranging from 0.85 kWh to 1.55 kWh, with water usage between 4 to 20 litres.

Control Panel and Features

The control panel includes an ON/OFF switch, programme buttons with LED indicators, and options to adjust the water softener. Key features include spray arms, containers for special salt and rinse aid, a detergent dispenser, filters, and a top spray nozzle.

Daily Use Instructions

Before loading dishes, remove large food remnants. Load cutlery and dishes ensuring that spray arms can rotate freely. Fill with detergent and select a suitable wash programme. Start the programme by pressing the ON/OFF button and the desired programme button. After washing, allow dishes to cool before removing them to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance

If the wash results are unsatisfactory, ensure the correct programme is selected, the dishes are properly loaded, and the filter is clean. In case of scale deposits, check the special salt container and water softener settings. For persistent issues, refer to the 'What to do, if...' section and contact customer service if needed.

Maintenance

Check out our tips to prevent many common issues and extend the life of your AEG Dishwasher.

Regular Cleaning

Ensure regular cleaning of the dishwasher's filter, spray arms, and door seals to prevent blockages and ensure optimal performance.

Proper Loading

Load dishes correctly to ensure that water can reach all surfaces. Avoid overloading which can prevent effective cleaning.

Use of Detergent

Use the recommended amount of detergent. Excessive detergent can cause residue build-up, while too little can lead to ineffective cleaning.

Water Softener Adjustment

Ensure that the water softener is correctly adjusted to your local water hardness. Incorrect settings can lead to scale deposits on dishes.

Special Salt and Rinse Aid

Check and refill the special salt and rinse aid regularly. These are essential for preventing limescale and ensuring dishes dry without spots.
