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 hold 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.

Energy Saving Tips

- Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much detergent,

the result will not be cleaner dishes, but a greater negative im-

pact on the enviroment.

- There is no untility in rinsing dishes, cookware and untensils

before placing them in the dishwasher.

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.

Remove the Plug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the

plug from the socket. Do not run risks.

No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not

use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, 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 clean-

ing product made specifically for dishwasher.

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 pre-

vent odours from forming within the appliance.

Moving the Appliance

If the appliance must be moved,try to keep it in the vertical position.

If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is

food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a

sponge will prevent this from occuring.
