Energy-saving dishwashing
This dishwasher is economical in the
consumption of water and energy.
For best results follow these tips:
– For most economical dishwashing,
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
– Choose a program that best suits the
degree of soiling and the type of
dishes being washed.
– Select the
Normal
program (depend-
ing on model) for energy-saving dish-
washing. This program is the most ef-
ficient in terms of its combined en-
ergy and water consumption at clean-
ing normally soiled dishes.
– Follow the detergent manufacturer's
recommendations on detergent
dosage.
– When using powder or liquid deter-
gent, you can use
1
/
3
less detergent if
baskets are only half full.
– The dishwasher can be connected to
a hot water supply for further
economies. If the water is heated by
for example, solar panels, this would
be energy efficient.
However, if your water is heated by
electricity we recommend cold water
connection.
