Economical dishwashing
This dishwasher is exceptionally
economical in its use of water and
electricity.
You can make the most of your
appliance by following these tips:
- Washing in a dishwasher generally
uses less water and energy than
washing by hand.
- There is no need to pre-wash items
under running water, and this
unnecessarily increases water and
energy consumption.
- For the most economical
dishwashing, make full use of the
basket capacity without overloading
the dishwasher. This results in the
most economical dishwashing in
terms of energy and water
consumption.
- Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling (see
“Programme overview”).
- Select the
ECO
programme for
energy-saving dishwashing. This
programme is the most efficient in
terms of its combined energy and
water consumption for cleaning
crockery with a normal level of
soiling.
- Follow the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
- When using powder or liquid
detergent, you can use
1
/
3
less
detergent if the baskets are only half
full.
- You can connect the dishwasher to a
hot water supply. A hot water
connection is particularly suitable
with energy-saving water heating
sources, such as solar energy with a
circulation system.
If the water is heated by electricity,
we would recommend connection to
cold water.
