Economical dishwashing
This dishwasher is exceptionally
economical in its use of water and
electricity.
You can support the economical
operation of your appliance by following
these tips:
- Washing in a dishwasher generally
uses less water and energy than
washing dishes by hand.
- Pre-rinsing dishes under running
water is not necessary and
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 use of the
dishwasher 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 chart”).
- 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
dishes with a normal level of soiling.
- If you have a hot water connection,
select the SolarSave programme (see
“Installation – Water intake”). The
wash water will not be heated up
during this programme.
- Follow the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
- If you are manually dosing the
detergent, reduce the amount of
detergent by

or liquid detergent if the baskets are
