Tips for energy saving

Following information will help you use the
product in an ecological and energy-efficient
manner.
Wipe away any coarse food remnants on the
dishes before putting them in the product.
Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items
leads to increased water and energy
consumption and is not recommended.
Washing tableware in a household
dishwasher usually consumes less energy
and water in the use phase than hand
dishwashing when the household dishwasher
is used according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
Operate the product after filling it completely.
When selecting a programme, consider
the table of "Programme data and average
consumption values" given on Quick Guide.
Do not put more detergent than suggested
on the detergent package.

Water softening system

The product is equipped with a water
softening system which reduces the
hardness of incoming water. This system
softens the supply water to a level that will
allow washing the dishes with the required
quality.
The mains water hardness must be
softened if it is over 7°dH. Otherwise,
hardness ions will accumulate on
the dishes that are washed and may
affect the washing, rinsing and drying
performances of the machine.
Adjusting the water softening
system
Washing performance will increase when
water softening system is adjusted properly.
