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 odors from form-
ing and food from caking onto the dishes, you can run the hold
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 odors are not
trapped inside.
Remove the Plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the
plug from the socket.
No 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 a clean-
ing product made specifically for dishwasher.
- Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much detergent,
the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather, a greater nega-
tive impact on the environment.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position.
If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is
food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a
sponge will prevent this from occurring.
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 pre-
vent odors from forming within the appliance.
