▶
So as not to scratch the finish on
the appliance, do not use sponges
with a rough surface or abrasive
cleaning agents.
▶
To prevent corrosion, do not use
sponge cloths on dishwashers with
a stainless steel front or rinse such
cloths thoroughly several times be-
fore using them for the first time.
3 Environmental protec-
tion and saving energy
3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environ-
mentally compatible and can be re-
cycled.
▶
Sort the individual components by
type and dispose of them separ-
ately.
3.2 Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less electricity and
less water.
Use the Eco 50° programme.
a The Eco 50° programme is en-
ergy-efficient and environmentally
friendly.

3.3 Zeolith drying
The appliance features a Zeolith con-
tainer. Zeolith drying lets you save
energy.
Zeolite is a mineral that can store
moisture and heat energy and then
release them again.
During dishwashing heat energy is
used to heat up the washing water
and dry the mineral.
During the drying phase moisture
from the interior of the dishwasher is
stored in the mineral and heat energy
is released. The heat energy is blown
out into the interior of the dishwasher
with dry air. This speeds up and im-
proves drying.
Zeolith drying therefore saves a great
deal of energy.
Tip:
To avoid impairing Zeolith drying
performance, do not position table-
ware parts directly in front of the in-
take opening or the blow opening of
the Zeolith container.
Do not position heat-sensitive table-
ware parts directly in front of the blow
opening of the Zeolith container.

3.4 Sensors
The sensors adjust the programme
sequence and strength in the auto-
matic programmes depending on the
level and type of soiling.
The sensor has different sensitivity
settings that can be changed in the
basic settings.
