HELPFUL HINTS

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.
upside-down.
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the
water drains off easily.
Long items of cutlery such as ladles, carving knives etc.
should be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
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.
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
Programme Chart (ECONOMY, QUICK and LIGHT
programmes).
