Energy Saving Tips

It is important to try and run the dishwasher when it is fully loaded in order to save on
energy.
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.
Use the right amount of detergent.
There is no advantage in pre-rinsing dishes, cookware and utensils before placing
them in the dishwasher.

How to keep Your Dishwasher in Shape

After Every Wash:
Turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so that
moisture and odours are not trapped inside.
Before cleaning always remove the plug from the socket.
Do Not Use Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or
abrasive cleaning products, 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 cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
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 open. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odours from
forming within the appliance.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is food that remains
trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from
occurring.
