Hints and tips
To save energy
Place dishes in the machine immediately after every
meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before
washing.
Do not prewash dishes under running water.
For best washing results
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak
very heavily soiled pots and pans.
Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside-
down.
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that
the water drains off easily.
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible.
