HELPFUL HINTS

To save energy

Do not prewash dishes under running water.

Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.

If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme (see Programme Chart on the following pages), so that any food scraps do not become caked on the dishes while you are waiting to run the complete wash programme. Select an economic programme when the baskets are not very full and/or when the dishes are not very soiled, following the instructions given in the «Washing programmes» chart.

For best washing results:

Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very heavily soiled pots and pans.

Always arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. up side-down.

Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water drains off easily.

Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible; correct arrangement of the items will give better washing results.

Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so that they do not move during washing.

You will improve drying results by leaving the dishwasher door ajar for at least 15-30 minutes as soon as the programme finishes.

Care must be taken when opening the door, as steam will escape.

Items not Suitable for Dishwashers

The following should not be washed in the dishwasher:

Cutlery or dishes with wooden or horn handles or glued parts.

Handmade items, wooden objects, antiques or hand painted china.

Certain types of decoration can discolour when washed in a dishwasher.

Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not guaranteed dishwasher-proof, should be washed by hand. You are advised to place them in the upper basket and to select a delicate programme.

Certain types of glass can also become opaque after being washed several times in a dishwasher.

Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery. Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.

Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items.

Aluminium tends to go black; copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.

Caution: You are advised not to load very small or plastic items which can fall through the baskets.

Note: When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher-proof.

For best results we recommend the use of Finish detergents, rinse aid and salt.
