Energy-saving dishwashing
This dishwasher is exceptionally
economical in its use of water and
electricity.
For best results, follow these tips:
- Washing in a dishwasher generally
uses less water and energy than
washing by hand.
- There is no need to pre-rinse items
under running water. This would
unnecessarily increase water and
energy consumption.
- Make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher. This
results in the most economical
dishwashing in terms of energy and
water consumption.
- Choose a program that best suits the
degree of soiling and the type of
dishware being washed (see
“Program overview”).
- Select the Normal program for
energy-saving dishwashing. This
program is the most efficient in terms
of its combined energy and water
consumption for cleaning dishware
with a normal level of soiling.
- If you have a hot water connection,
choose the Energy Saver program
(see “Water intake” under
“Installation”). The wash water will
not be heated up during this program.
- Follow the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
- If you are manually dosing the
detergent, reduce the amount of
detergent by

when using powder
or liquid detergent if the baskets are
only half full.
