Energy saving tips
You can help save energy if you:
1. Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dish-
washer uses the same amount of electricity
and hot water as a fully loaded machine.
3. Air dry dishes when You don't need a rapid
drying cycle. Allow longer drying times
[overnight).
2 Use the LOW ENERGY WASH Cycle whenever
possible. It uses less hot water and energy
than otherwash cycles.
4. load correctly for best washing results. In-
correct loading may cause poor washing
and the need to rewash all or part of the
load.

6.
Don't pre-rinse normally soiled dishes. Se-
lect the correct cycle for the load and use
the recommended amount of detergent for
good washing results without hand rinsing.

however, should be cleaned by hand.
