Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The cardboard box and packing mate-
rial protects the appliance during ship-
ping. These materials are biodegrad-
able and recyclable, please recycle.
Disposal of an old appliance
Before disposing of an old appliance,
please make safe as outlined in the
“Important Safety Instructions” by re-

Energy saving washing
This dishwasher is exceptionally eco-
nomical in the use of water and electric-
ity. For best results follow these tips:
The dishwasher can internally heat wa-
ter to the temperatures required by the
wash program. This capability allows
the option of connecting the machine to
either a hot or cold water source.
^ For lowest energy consumption and
the gentlest washing of china and
crystal, connect the dishwasher to a
cold water source.
^ For fastest possible wash times, yet
higher energy consumption, connect
the dishwasher to a hot water source.
^ For most economical dishwashing
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
^ Choose the program to suit the type
of dishware being washed and the
degree of soiling.
^ Select the Economy 55° C/130° F
program for energy saving dish-
washing.
^ Use the correct amounts of deter-
gent.
^ Only use 2/3 of the amount of deter-
gent if baskets are only half full.
