ADVICE AND TIPS  
TIPS  
TIPS ON ENERGY SAVING  
Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the crockery and • When the household dishwasher is used according to the manufacturer’s

instructions, washing tableware in a dishwasher usually consumes  
less energy and water than hand dishwashing.  
water. Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not  
tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards • In order to maximize dishwasher efficiency, it is recommended to in-  
and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the water to  
reach every surface and flow freely.  
itiate the wash cycle once the dishwasher is fully loaded. Loading  
the household dishwasher up to the capacity indicated by the manu-  
facturer will contribute to energy and water savings. Information on  
the correct loading of tableware can be found in the Loading chapter.  
In case of partial loading, it is recommended to use a dedicated wash  
options if available (Half load/ Zone Wash/ Multizone), filling up only  
selected racks. Incorrect loading or overloading of the dishwasher may  
increase resources usage (such as water, energy and time, as well as in-  
crease noise level), reducing cleaning and drying performance.  
• Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items leads to increased water and ener-  
gy consumption and is not recommended.  
Warning: lids, handles, trays and frying pans should not prevent the spray-  
er arms from rotating.  
Place any small items in the cutlery basket.  
Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower basket because  
in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher washing per-  
formance. After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can  
rotate freely.  
UNSUITABLE CROCKERY  
• Wooden crockery and cutlery.  
• Delicately decorated glasses, artistic handicrafts and antique crockery. HYGIENE  
Their decorations are not resistant.  
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the dishwasher  
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high temperatures.  
• Copper and tin crockery.  
please run a high-temperature program at least once a month. Use a  
teaspoon of detergent and run it without loading to clean your appliance.  
• Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.  
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can change  
and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass (e.g. crystal ob-  
jects) can become opaque after a number of wash cycles too.  
RESISTANCE TO FROST  
If the appliance is placed in surroundings exposed to the risk of frost, it  
must be drained completely. Turn off the water tap, remove the inlet and  
outlet hoses, and let all the water drain away. Make sure that the water  
softener is full of dissolved regeneration salt in the salt container, to

washer safe.  
If the appliance was stored in frost conditions the appliance must remain at  
an ambient temperature of min. 5°C for at least 24 hours before the first run.  
• Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery  
• Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the wash cy-  
cle is over.
