TO SAVE ENERGY AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
•
Always use the dishwasher with a full load.
•
Do not wash the dishes in running water.
•
Use the wash program that is most appropriate for each type of
load.
•
Do not perform preliminary rinsing.
•
If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply up to
60°C.
TO REDUCE DETERGENT CONSUMPTION AND PROTECT THE
ENVIRONMENT
The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the
environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent save on
electricity as well, observe the following recommendations:
•
Sort your dishes, washing delicate items separately from those
more resistant to strong detergents and high temperatures.
•
Do not pour detergent directly onto dishes.
ENERGY MANAGEMENT
After 5 minutes of inactivity (wash cycle completed, stopped or set but
not started), the dishwasher switches to standby mode to reduce energy
consumption.
In this mode, the dishwasher indicator panel (lights or display depending
on model) functions more slowly (switch-on once every 5 seconds).
REMOVING THE DISHES
At the end of the washing program, wait at least 20 minutes before
removing the dishes, to allow them to cool down. To prevent any water
droplets on the upper basket from falling on the dishes in the lower
basket, it is advisable to unload the lower basket first, and then the
upper basket.
