Energy Saving Tips

-It is important to try and run the dishwasher when it is fully loaded to save on energy.

-In order to prevent odours from forming and food from caking onto the dishes, you can run the soak cycle.

-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.

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 odours are not trapped inside.

Moving the Appliance

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be laid on its back.

DO NOT LAY THE MACHINE ON ITS RIGHT HAND SIDE

Remove the Plug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

Solvents and 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 cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

Use the right amount of detergent

If you use too much, the result will not be cleaner dishes, but a greater negative impact on the environment.

-Large food particles should be rinsed from the dishes before placing them in the dishwasher.

Seals

One of the reasons that odours form in the dishwasher is that food remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a sponge will prevent this.

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.
