Caring for the environment

Energy saving washing

This dishwasher is economical in the use of water and electricity. For best results follow these tips:

For lowest energy consumption you may connect the dishwasher to a cold water source.

For fastest possible wash times, with slightly higher energy consumption, connect the dishwasher to a hot water source.

Make full use of the baskets without overloading for the most economical washing.

Use the correct amount of detergent and rinse aid. Detergent dosage is dependent upon the amount of soiling and type of dishware being washed. See the "Program Guide" for more information.

When using powder or liquid detergent, reduce the amount to 2/3 of the normal amount when washing a small load.

Choose a program that best suits the degree of soiling and the type of dishes being washed.

Disposal of the packing material

The cardboard box and packaging protect the appliance during shipping. These materials are biodegradable and recyclable. Please recycle.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!

Disposal of an old machine

Old appliances may contain materials that can be recycled. Please contact your local recycling authority about the possibility of recycling these materials.

Ensure that the appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal. Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it from the outlet, cut off its power cord and remove any doors to prevent hazards.
