Energy Saving Tips

-
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 soak 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.

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.
Solvents and Abrasive Cleaning Products
Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products to clean the
exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, 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 dishwashers.
Use the right amount of detergent
If you use too much, the result will not be cleaner dishes, but a
greater negative impact on the environment.
- Large food particles should be rinsed from the dishes
before placing them in the dishwasher.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. If
absolutely necessary, it can be laid on its back.
DO NOT LAY THE MACHINE ON ITS RIGHT HAND SIDE
Seals
One of the reasons that odours form in the dishwasher is that food
remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a sponge will
prevent this.
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 prevent odours
from forming.
