Disposal of old electrical appliances
The European Directive 2012/19/EU on Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires
that old household electrical appliances must not be
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of
the materials they contain and reduce the impact on
human health and the environment. The crossed out
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of
your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance
it must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal
of their old appliance.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
Saving water and energy
• Only start a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full.
While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent
unpleasant odours with the Soak cycle (see Wash
Cycles).
• Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of
crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using
the Wash cycle table:
- for dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco
wash cycle, which guarantees low energy and water
consumption levels.
- if the load is smaller than usual activate the Half
load* option (see Start-up and use).
• If your electricity supply contract gives details of
electricity saving time bands, run wash cycles
during the periods when a lower tariff is applied.
The Delayed start* button (see Start-up and use)
helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly.
Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents
containing enzymes
• We strongly recommend that you use detergents
that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as
these products are harmful to the environment.
