-
It is important to try and run the dishwasher when it is fully loaded
to save on energy.
-
Rather than run a full cycle for a half load, you can run the Pre-
rinse cycle which will prevent odours from forming and food
from caking onto the dishes.
- Choose the right wash cycle: the choice of cycle depends on
the type of dishware, cookware and utensils being washed and
how dirty they are.
Energy Saving Tips
- Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much detergent,
the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather, a greater nega-
tive impact on the environment.
How to Keep Your Dishwasher in Shape
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and
leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not
trapped inside.
Remove the Plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the
plug from the socket.
Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products to clean the
exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, use only a cloth and
warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a
cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a clean-
ing product made specifically for dishwashers.
When You Go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash
cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from
the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the
appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and
prevent odours from forming.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical
position. If absolutely necessary, it can be laid on its back.
Seals
One of the reasons that odours form in the dishwasher is that
food get trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a sponge
will prevent this.
