Energy saving tips

You can help save energy if you:

1.Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dish- washer uses the same amount of electricity and hot water as a fully loaded machine.

3.Air dry dishes when You don’t need a rapid drying cycle. Allow longer drying times [overnight).

2 Use the LOW ENERGY WASH Cycle whenever possible. It uses less hot water and energy than otherwash cycles.

4.load correctly for best washing results. In- correct loading may cause poor washing and the need to rewash all or part of the load.

5.Don’t pre-rinse normally soiled dishes. Se- lect the correct cycle for the load and use

the recommended amount of detergent for good washing results without hand rinsing.

dav

7.Kitchen cleanup can be done quickly and efficiently through the use of Your dishwasher.

Most appliance parts that can fit in the dish- washer can be cleaned by it. Burned-on soil, however, should be cleaned by hand.
