ASKO DBI766IQXXL.BS.AU (01) PDF MANUAL

When the dishwasher is switched on for the first time, the display shows: “Welcome to your new ASKO dishwasher. This is a first time setup.” It is important to choose the right settings to ensure good dishwashing results. 1. Open the door. Press On/Off (power symbol). 2. Select settings using the < or > buttons. 3. Confirm the selected setting with the Menu/Confirm button (symbol with three horizontal lines). The basic settings to configure are:

• Language: Select the language to be shown on the display.
• Rinse aid (0/1/2/3/4/5, Pre-selected: 4): Using rinse aid improves drying results and achieves better dishwashing results with glassware and dishes. Adjust the dispenser between 0 (Off) and 5 (High dose).
• TAB (On/Off, Pre-selected: Off): Activate this setting when using an all-in-one detergent that contains rinse aid. This setting reduces the rinse aid dose from the separate compartment.
• Auto dose (0 ml – 40 ml, Pre-selected: 0 ml (Off)): Activate this setting if you want to use automatic doses of detergent gel. The exact dose depends on the program and, for the Auto program, how dirty the dishes are.

To change these settings later, see the chapter “Settings”.

Top up the rinse aid compartment if you have selected a Rinse aid setting from 1 to 5. The “Top up rinse aid” symbol (*) will appear on the display when it needs refilling. 1. Open the rinse aid compartment lid by lifting it up. 2. Carefully top up the rinse aid to the marked level MAX. 3. Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the compartment. 4. Close the lid firmly by pressing it down until it clicks. Note: For water with a hardness greater than 10–12 °dH, consider using rinse aid with citric acid (acid rinse aid).

Fill the automatic dose compartment with dishwasher detergent gel if you have activated the Auto dose setting. The “Top up auto dose” symbol will appear on the display when it needs refilling. 1. Open the lid of the automatic dose compartment (marked GEL ONLY) by lifting the release tab. 2. Carefully add dishwasher detergent gel up to the level marked MAX. 3. Clean up any excess dishwasher detergent gel outside the compartment. 4. Close the lid firmly. NOTE!

• Use only dishwasher detergent gel in the automatic dose compartment. Do not use powder or washing up liquid.
• Some thick dishwasher detergent gels are not suitable for the automatic dose compartment. Add very thick gel to the manual detergent compartment instead.
• Detergent gel is milder than powder/all-in-one detergents. For tough stains like lipstick or tea/coffee, you might need to add powder or all-in-one detergent with bleach to the manual compartment (even when Auto dose is active). See “Add detergent”.

Dishwasher detergent gel is dispensed during the main wash for all programs except Self-cleaning. A small amount is also dosed during the pre-wash in Auto, Flexi, Intensive, and Time programs (2:00, 2:30).

• Save energy and water: Residential dishwashers generally use less energy and water than hand washing.
• Do not rinse under running water: Simply scrape off large food particles before loading. Rinsing increases energy and water consumption.
• Choose a green detergent: Check the environmental declaration on the packaging. Using too much detergent and rinse aid can be less effective and impact the environment.
• Run a fully loaded dishwasher: Wait until the dishwasher is full to save energy and water. Use the Rinse and hold program or Anti-odour program for dirty dishes waiting for a full load.
• Run programs at a lower temperature: Select a program with a low temperature if dishes are only slightly dirty.
• Select dishwashing program – Eco: This program is designed for normally soiled loads and uses minimal energy and water by washing at a low temperature for a long time.
• Select program mode – Green: Use the Green program mode (available with Heavy program) to save energy and water.
• Select option – Automatic door opening: Using this option improves drying results by automatically opening the door at the end of the program. Wait for the program to finish and dishes to cool before unloading.

Some cookware is not dishwasher safe due to materials not withstanding high heat or being damaged by detergent. Exercise caution with:

• Handmade items
• Fragile decoration
• Crystal/glassware
• Silver, copper, tin, aluminium
• Wood and plastic

Look for the “Dishwasher safe” marking.

• Fragile decoration: Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (items feel rough) should not be washed in a dishwasher.
• Crystal/Glass: Use the gentle Crystal glass program. Use a small amount of detergent and ensure items don’t touch. Rinse aid improves washing and drying results.
• Hand-painted glassware, antique, and very fragile items: Should not be washed in a dishwasher.
• Silver: Silver and stainless steel items should not touch, as silver can become discoloured. Separate items made from different metals.
• Aluminium: Can lose its shine. Good quality aluminium pans can be washed, though some shine may be lost.
• Cutlery with glued handles: Some glues are not dishwasher safe, and handles may loosen.

Load dishes carefully for the best washing and drying results with the lowest energy and water consumption.

• All dirty surfaces should face inwards and downwards.
• Dishes should not be placed in or on each other.
• Angle dishes with hollows (like cups) so rinse water runs off. This is crucial for plastic items.
• Place small items that could fall through the basket in the top cutlery tray.

NOTE! Check that the spray arms can rotate freely after loading.

The top cutlery tray holds cutlery, ladles, whisks, serving cutlery, and similar items. Avoid placing tall objects that could block the top spray arm. Raising the top cutlery tray: 1. Pull out the top cutlery tray. 2. Pull the two locking handles on either side forward to raise the tray. Lowering the top cutlery tray: 1. Ensure the upper basket is in the lowest position. 2. Pull out the top cutlery tray. 3. Slide the two locking handles on either side downwards and backwards to lower the tray.

Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates, and saucers in the upper basket. Ensure all dirty surfaces face inwards and downwards. Place wine glasses on the wine glass shelf. Knives can be placed in the knife stand on the right. Extra supports for wine glasses may be included and can be fitted. The adjustable plate supports can be pushed together to suit the dishes.

Raising the upper basket: 1. Pull out the upper basket. 2. Grab the sides of the upper basket with both hands and lift it up. Lowering the upper basket: 1. Pull out the upper basket. 2. Hold the sides of the upper basket with both hands and push the two locking handles (located on the outer sides of the runners) inwards to lower the upper basket.

Place plates, side plates, serving dishes, pots, and cutlery (in the cutlery basket) in the lower basket. A cutlery holder can be fitted for maximum loading capacity (found inside the enclosed plastic bag). Adjustable plate supports: These can be adjusted to suit the dishes. Release them by pushing inwards before repositioning. They can also be folded down to load pots and bowls. At the back right, plate supports can be pushed together for more space (e.g., for stoneware or a deep pan).

The two adaptable power zones (located in the lower basket) can be adjusted for targeted cleaning or turned off. They are pre-selected to Off at the factory.

• For Vases and Bottles: Open the zone to this position.
• For Pots and Pans: Open the zone fully to this position.
• Off: Turn the power zones off (position marked OFF) if you want greater spray pressure across the rest of the lower spray arm.

Leave the power zones open for increased water flow where needed (e.g., heavily soiled pots or tall items).

To wash plates with a diameter of 25-39 cm, you can adjust the lower basket by moving the adjustable plate supports and their fixtures further apart to increase the distance between the tine rows.

Place cutlery with handles facing down (except for knives) and spread them out as much as possible. Ensure spoons do not stack inside each other. The cutlery basket is best placed in the middle at the front of the lower basket for optimal performance from the dedicated spray nozzle. WARNING! Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded horizontally in the dishwasher’s special cutlery baskets (like the top tray or knife stand) or with their points down in the cutlery basket to prevent injury and damage. The cutlery basket has a fold-down section in the middle for small items or small shafts (e.g., electric whisk attachments).

You can add detergent manually even if Auto dose is active (e.g., for bleach or if the auto dose compartment is empty). The manual detergent compartment must be dry when adding detergent. Follow instructions on the detergent packaging. 1. Press the catch to open the lid of the main wash detergent compartment. 2. Add the recommended amount of detergent. 3. If using powder or liquid detergent, add a small amount to the prewash detergent compartment as well, especially for heavily soiled dishes. 4. Close the lid firmly. It should click shut. NOTE!

• Use only dishwasher detergent. Washing up liquid creates foam and prevents the dishwasher from working effectively.
• Do not add detergent to the manual compartment if you are solely relying on automatic detergent dosing, as too much detergent can lead to less effective washing and environmental impact.

Many types of all-in-one detergents are available. Read the product directions carefully.

• Activate the TAB setting in the dishwasher’s settings menu when using an all-in-one detergent that contains rinse aid. This optimizes the cycle for the tablet and reduces the dose from the separate rinse aid dispenser.
• Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programs (less than 75 minutes). Use powder or liquid dishwasher detergent instead for short cycles.

NOTE! Optimum washing and drying results are achieved by using normal dishwasher detergent (powder or liquid) together with separately dispensed rinse aid. Contact the detergent manufacturer if you have questions about their detergent.

Open the door and press the On/Off button (power symbol). Also, ensure the water tap connected to the dishwasher is turned on. To turn off, press the On/Off button again or wait for it to switch off automatically after the program ends.

With the dishwasher on, press the < or > buttons until the desired program is shown on the display. Select a program appropriate for the type of dishes and how dirty they are.

The status light at the bottom of the dishwasher shows the program status:

• Blue: Program started, you can still load more dishes.
• Red: Do not load more dishes (risk of poorer washing results). A flashing red light when the door is closed indicates an error has occurred (see Troubleshooting). If flashing when the door is open, it indicates a program is in progress.
• Green: Program finished. The light stays on for 15 minutes.
• Flashing Blue/Green: Remote start is activated.

Yes, if the status light is blue. 1. Open the door carefully. The dishwasher stops automatically. 2. Add the dishes. 3. Close the door. The dishwasher will continue the program after a short pause. Do not add more dishes if the status light is red. If the program was started remotely, interrupting it by opening the door will allow it to continue once closed, but you cannot remote start it again for that cycle. You can monitor and remote stop via the Connect Life app.

If power fails during a wash or rinse phase, the program will continue from where it stopped when power is restored. If power fails during the drying phase, the program will be interrupted. If the program was started remotely and hasn’t ended, it will continue once power is restored. You can monitor and remote stop via the Connect Life app, but you cannot remote start it again for that cycle. Opening the door for more than 2 minutes during drying will also interrupt the program.

The end of the program is indicated by:

• One short signal from the buzzer (this can be adjusted in Settings).
• The status light turning green (stays green for 15 minutes).
• The display showing “Program done” after the door is opened.

The dishwasher switches off automatically after the program ends. Remember to turn off the water tap after each use.

Run the Self-cleaning program for hygienic cleaning of the dishwasher tub, spray arms, and spray pipes. The display may prompt “Run Self-cleaning”. 1. Ensure the dishwasher is empty. 2. Add normal dishwasher detergent or citric acid to the manual detergent compartment (Auto dose will not dispense for this program). Special dishwasher cleaners can also be used according to their instructions. 3. Select the Self-cleaning program. 4. Press Start/Stop (▷) and close the door. For limescale deposits, use citric acid or a special dishwasher cleaner designed for limescale removal.

Error F40 (Drain pump failure) may indicate a blockage. Try to remove the blockage: 1. Turn off the machine using the On/Off button and unplug it from the wall socket. 2. Remove the coarse and fine filters. 3. Scoop out any water from the dishwasher tub. 4. Locate the drain pump (usually green) on the right side of the bottom drain. Press it inwards and twist it counter-clockwise to remove it. 5. Check for and remove any debris (e.g., glass shards, food particles) from the pump housing and the pump impeller itself. 6. Refit the drain pump, ensuring it locks correctly by twisting clockwise. 7. Refit the fine and coarse filters. 8. Plug the dishwasher back in and try running a program. If the problem persists after cleaning the pump and filters, contact the service centre.

If the overflow guard is triggered, F54 (Overfilling water) appears on the display. 1. Turn off the water tap connected to the dishwasher. 2. Contact your nearest service centre. Note: To avoid water leaking outside the dishwasher, do not remove the plug from the wall socket until the water tap to the supply line has been turned off!

Check the following:

• Is the door properly closed? Close it firmly.
• Has the fuse/circuit breaker tripped? Reset it.
• Is the dishwasher plug connected to the wall socket?
• Is the water tap turned on?
• Have you pressed the Start/Stop button?
• Is Child Lock activated? Deactivate it (press < and > together for 3 seconds).
• Is Delayed Start selected? Wait for the delay to end or cancel it (open door, press and hold Start/Stop for 3 seconds).
• Was Remote Start selected but the door not closed within 2 minutes? Reactivate Remote Start and close the door promptly.

Check the following:

• Are the spray arm holes blocked? Clean them.
• Can the spray arms rotate freely? Rearrange dishes if blocked.
• Are the filters clean and correctly fitted? Clean and refit them.
• Is the correct amount/type of detergent used? Use recommended amount; use fresh detergent. If using Auto dose, ensure it’s active and filled with suitable gel. For tough stains with gel, supplement with powder/tablet in manual compartment.
• Are dishes loaded correctly? Avoid nesting/masking items. Ensure water reaches all surfaces.
• Is the selected program suitable for the soil level? Choose a more intensive program if needed.
• Is the drain pump clean? Clean if necessary.
• Are the power zones set correctly for the load (e.g., open for pots/pans)?

Check the following:

• Is the rinse aid dispenser empty, or the dosage set too low? Refill rinse aid and/or increase the dosage setting (1-5).
• Is the TAB setting activated when using separate rinse aid? Deactivate TAB setting if not using all-in-one tablets.
• Are dishes unloaded too soon? Wait for the program to finish completely and allow dishes to cool.
• Is the Automatic door opening option activated? Use this option for improved drying. Do not close the door prematurely after it opens automatically.
• Are dishes loaded correctly? Angle items with hollows to allow water runoff.

• Spots: Rinse aid dosage may be too low, or dispenser empty. Increase dose/refill. Check TAB setting if applicable.
• Streaks (cloudy film): Rinse aid dosage may be too high. Reduce the dosage setting.

Consider water hardness; very soft water may require less detergent/rinse aid.

This is likely due to hard water (limescale deposits).

• Ensure rinse aid is used and the dosage is adequate for your water hardness.
• Run the Self-cleaning program with citric acid or a descaler.
• Consider using a detergent with higher phosphate content if available and permitted locally.

• Cloudiness (etching/corrosion): This is often permanent damage caused by soft water or excessive detergent/rinse aid. Use less detergent/rinse aid, especially with soft water. Use the Crystal glass program for delicate items. Avoid washing crystal glass that is not dishwasher safe.
• Scratches: Ensure glasses do not touch each other during the wash. Load carefully.

• Discolouration: Some plastics can absorb pigments from foods like tomato sauce or carrots. This is often unavoidable. Avoid placing heavily stained items next to light-coloured plastic.
• Deformation: Not all plastics are heat resistant. Only wash plastic items marked “Dishwasher safe”. Use the Plastic program if available, or a lower temperature program. Ensure items are loaded securely and cannot contact the heating element.

• Avoid contact between silver and stainless steel items during the wash.
• Some foods (e.g., eggs, mayonnaise, mustard) can tarnish silver. Rinse these off if possible before loading.
• Ensure correct detergent dosage.

• Ensure cutlery is made of stainless steel suitable for dishwashers. Low-quality stainless steel can rust.
• Rust can transfer from other items (e.g., non-stainless screws on pots, damaged coatings on baskets). Remove the source if possible.
• Avoid excessively long wet periods; unload the dishwasher relatively soon after the cycle finishes, especially if Automatic door opening is not used.
• Run the Self-cleaning program with citric acid or a suitable cleaner to remove existing rust stains from the tub.

• Dishes rattling: Check loading, ensure items are secure and not hitting spray arms.
• Spray arm hitting dishes: Rearrange load.
• Knocking/banging during water fill/drain: This can be normal plumbing noise. Ensure hoses are not kinked.
• Grinding noise: Check filters and drain pump area for hard objects (glass, bones).

If noise persists and seems mechanical, contact service.

• Dispenser was wet when detergent was added (powder/gel clumped). Ensure it’s dry.
• Dispenser lid blocked by tall items in the upper basket. Rearrange load.
• Using tablets in short programs; they may not dissolve fully. Use powder/gel for short cycles.

• Check if the drain pump is blocked. Clean it (Error F40 procedure).
• Ensure the drain hose connection to the house plumbing is not blocked.

Error codes indicate specific faults. Some common ones:

• F10 (Overfilling water): Check water supply connection. Turn off tap, contact service.
• F11 (Drain error): Check filters, drain pump, drain hose for blockages.
• F12 (Water inlet error): Check water tap is on, supply hose not kinked, water pressure ok.
• F40 (Drain pump failure): Clean drain pump (see procedure above).
• F43 (Circulation pump failure): Turn off, wait, try again. Contact service if persists.
• F52 (Water level error): Turn off, wait, try again. Contact service if persists.
• F54 (Overfilling water / Overflow guard active): Turn off water tap. Contact service.

Yes, do not forget to remove the transport protection for the door when unpacking the dishwasher.

The dishwasher is intended for installation under a worktop. Recess dimensions are illustrated in the PDF (Width: 596 mm, Depth: 554 mm, Height: 859*-912 mm [*Remove locking nuts for 860-861 mm recess]). Holes for wires/cables need not be larger than 38 mm in diameter; ensure edges are even to prevent damage. If built-in, surrounding cabinetry must be resistant to condensation. If freestanding or a side is visible, an accessory kit (side panels, worktop, anti-tip brackets) must be purchased and fitted.

Mount the protective film (found in the enclosed plastic bag) beneath the worktop and up around the edge. Its function is to protect the worktop from moisture. The surface must be clean and dry before affixing.

1. Start by measuring the height from the floor to the bottom edge of the worktop. 2. Measure the height from the floor to the top edge of the dishwasher. 3. Lean the dishwasher forwards slightly and adjust the rear foot using the screw at the front of the dishwasher. Turn clockwise to lower or anticlockwise to raise. 4. Adjust the front feet by turning them clockwise to raise and anticlockwise to lower the dishwasher. 5. Check that there is an air gap of at least 3 mm between the underside of the worktop and the top edge of the dishwasher. 6. Slide the dishwasher into place. Pull the supply and drainage hoses and the power cord carefully when sliding. Check that hoses have no kinks or sharp bends and are not damaged. Check that the machine is installed so the door opens freely. 7. Make any final adjustments to the feet and tighten the lock nuts on the front feet.

* The dishwasher is suitable for installing in a raised recess for ergonomic height, meaning the hose can run lower than the dishwasher bottom (e.g., directly to a floor drain). * The hose can connect to a nipple on the sink unit’s water trap. The nipple must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm. * The hose may be extended by a maximum of 2.5 m (total length must not exceed 4.5 m). Any joints and connecting pipes must have an internal diameter of at least 14 mm. Ideally, replace with a new hose without joints. * No part of the drainage hose may be more than 950 mm above the bottom of the dishwasher. * Attach the drainage hose with a hose clamp. Ensure the drainage hose has no kinks.

* Use only the inlet hose supplied with the dishwasher. Do not re-use old or other spare hoses. * The supply pipe must be fitted with a water tap (stopcock) that is easily accessible. * After installation, turn on the water tap, allow pressure to settle, and check that all connections are watertight. * NOTE: Only cold water connection is suitable for this appliance. * Water pressure must be between 0.03 and 1.0 MPa. * If water pressure is higher than 1.0 MPa, a pressure limiting valve must be fitted. * NOTE: Connecting via certain types of pressure limiting valves may restrict water supply and cause a “Water inlet fault” error.

* Information (voltage, etc.) is on the compliance plate and must match the electricity supply. * The dishwasher must be connected to an earthed wall socket. * The electric wall socket must be placed outside the installation area to be easily accessible after installing the dishwasher. * Do not use an extension cord.

Use the provided screws (typically 2 or 4) to fasten the dishwasher to the adjacent cabinetry through the holes on the sides of the dishwasher frame. After fastening the machine, check that the front feet still touch the floor.

* **Sound Insulation (only certain models):** Fit the sound insulation piece(s) (1-2 pieces, depending on plinth depth) under the front base of the dishwasher. You might need to trim it depending on depth. * **Kick Panel:** The dishwasher is supplied with a kick panel. Install the kick panel by clipping it onto the lower front of the dishwasher after the sound insulation is in place.

There is a QR code on the compliance plate inside the dishwasher. Scan the code to view information about your product.
