Run programmes only with a full load
Wait to run a programme until the dishwasher is full,
this way you save energy. Use the Rinse & Hold
programme to rinse the dishes if there are any
unpleasant odours while you wait for the dishwasher
to become fully loaded.
Run programmes at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select a
lower temperature with certain programmes. See
also the section Select options in the chapter
Dishwashing.
Select a programme with Short dry
To save energy, use Short dry. The drying result will
be better if, once the programme is finished, you
leave the door slightly open.
Do not rinse under running water
Simply scrape off large food particles before loading
the dishwasher.
Choose a green detergent
Read the environmental declaration on the
packaging!
Connect to cold water...
If you use oil or electricity to heat your home.
Connect to hot water (max. 70 °C)...
If you use district heating, solar power or geothermal
power to heat your home. Choosing a hot water
connection cuts programme times and reduces the
dishwasher's electricity consumption.
