result and prevent damage to both dishware and the
appliance. The noise level may also vary depending on

Do not load the dishwasher with paper products, plastic
bags, packing materials or anything other than normal,
dishwasher safe dishware and kitchenware.
Tips
¡
Using the appliance allows you to save energy and
water compared to doing dishes by hand.
¡
See our website for examples of how to load your
appliance efficiently.
¡
To save energy and water, load the machine with the
number of place settings specified (standard load with
dishes and silverware).
¡
For better washing and drying results, position items
with curves or recesses at an angle so water can run
off.
1.
Remove large remnants of food from dishware.
To save resources, do not pre-rinse dishware under
running water.
2.
Observe the following when arranging dishware:
– Put heavily soiled dishware in the lower rack, e.g.
pans. The more powerful spray jet ensures that the
dishwashing result will be better.
– To avoid damage to dishware, arrange it so it is
stable and cannot tip over.
– To avoid injury, arrange silverware with the points
and sharp edges facing down.
– Position containers with the openings facing down so
no water can collect in them.
– Do not block the spray arms - make sure that they
can turn freely.
– Do not place small parts in the collecting tray and do
not block it with dishware so as not to obstruct the lid
of the detergent dispenser.
