Loading the dishwasher
Economic dishwashing
• Do not start the dishwasher until it is fully loaded to save
energy.
• Do not rinse under running water. Simply scrape off
large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
• Choose an environmentally-friendly detergent. Read the
environmental declaration on the packaging"
• If the dishes are only slightly dirty, you can select a
programme with a low temperature.
• Better drying results are achieved if you open the door
a little once the programme has ended. (If the
dishwasher is built-in the surrounding furnishings must
be resistant to any condensation.)
