Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
Rather than just throwing these materi-
als away, please ensure that they are
recycled.
Disposal of your old appliance
or machine
Electrical and electronic appliances /
machines often contain materials
which, if handled or disposed of incor-
rectly, could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the cor-
rect functioning of your appliance or
machine. Please do not therefore dis-
pose of your old machine or appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local com-
munity waste collection / recycling cen-
tre and ensure that it presents no dan-
ger to children while being stored for
disposal.
It should be unplugged or discon-
nected from the mains electricity supply
by a competent person. The plug must
be rendered useless and the cable cut
off directly behind it to prevent misuse.
See the "Warning and Safety" section of
this booklet for further details.
Energy saving washing
This dishwasher is exceptionally eco-
nomical in its use of water and electric-
ity. You can make the most of your ap-
pliance by following these tips:
^
If your household water system is
suitable, this dishwasher can be con-
nected to a hot water supply, for fur-
ther economies.
Although all stages of the wash then
take place with hot water, savings are
made in:
- the use of primary energy,
- costs,
- programme running times.
If, however, your water is heated by
electricity we would still recommend
connection to cold water.
^
For most economical dishwashing
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
^
Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling.
^
The "Top Solo" function should only be
selected for washing very small loads
of crockery (see "Additional functions").
^
Select the Economy programme for
energy-saving dishwashing.
^
Use the correct amounts of detergent.
^
Use only 2/3 of the given dosage if
baskets are only half full.
