Has anyone got one? I bought an ex display one from Currys that turned out to have no instruction book. Kenwood say its nothing do do with them as Currys just pay them a licence fee to have the Kenwood name on one of their own products.....

Currys also can't help as as its a discontinued model and they have no records (I only bought the bloody thing a month ago!!!)

So, I'm after a scan of the manual if possible, more specifically the page which tells you what each programme does.

does it have a sticker somewhere that identifies it by the original Curries model number? Probably an "Essentials" starting with CDW...

You don't know? 🙂

The different programs on dishwashers just vary the temperature of the water and the duration.

I just looked on the Kenwood site and they don't even list dishwashers as a product at all.

Sounds silly, but are you sure it is a Kenwood?

Not an exact match but may be very similar?

As per the OP I don't think it's a Kenwood per-se, they're known for smaller stuff really - fancy blenders and such.

I'd be a bit annoyed if I'd bought one and was told "ah, really it's a generic non-branded machine, but we paid some money to Kenwood to use their brand on it". Especially as the after-sales you'd expect from a Brand like Kenwood is completely missing.

Saying that - I think I had a Kenwood slimline one at my old house 😳

Have found often these long model names are the same in each shop but they have a different number to stop people google comparing. have you searched generic kenwood dishwasher instructions.

EDIT: Doesn't bode well if you need a spare part.

The best Currys could come up with was a link to a similar model but it doesn't have as many programmes as mine does.

Yes, I am slightly miffed that its not a real Kenwood, there was a very similar own brand model which I foolishly assumed was probably made by Kenwood - looks like it was probably the other way around!

Thanks for the link gobuchul, thats what Currys came up with!

That one has 7! How many does yours have? How many do you need? 🙂

Mine has 5 and I reckon I only use 2 of them.
