cleaning and drying results in daily use
and to protect the environment.
• Washing dishes in the dishwasher as
instructed in the user manual usually
consumes less water and energy than
washing dishes by hand.
• Load the dishwasher to its full
capacity to save water and energy.
For best cleaning results, arrange
items in the baskets as instructed in
the user manual and do not overload
the baskets.
• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. It
increases the water and energy
consumption. When needed, select a
programme with a prewash phase.
• Remove larger residues of food from
the dishes and empty cups and
glasses before putting them inside the
appliance.
• Soak or slightly scour cookware with
firmly cooked-on or baked-on food
before washing it in the appliance.

results.

appliance with the use of appliance
cleaner which is particularly suitable
