Removal of food: Carefully scrape food from the dishes using lukewarm water in moderation to help in the removal of animal

Note: Wash dishes as soon as possible to prevent hardening of the deposits and compromising the eff ectiveness of the
washing.
For an eff ective washing process, regular cleaning and maintenance of the dishwasher is recommended (see chap.

).
Non-compliance with the above recommendations or with any and all information within the manual could result in a
waste of energy, water, and detergent, further causing an increase in user costs and/or a reduction in performance.
