Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
Rather than just throwing these materi-
als away, please ensure that they are
recycled.

Disposal of your old appliance

Old appliances contain materials which
can be recycled. Please contact your
dealer, your local waste collection cen-
tre or scrap merchant about potential
recycling schemes.
Ensure that the appliance presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal. See the appropriate sec-
tion in the Warning and Safety instruc-
tions.

Energy saving washing

This dishwasher is exceptionally eco-
nomical in its use of water and electric-
ity. You can make the most of your ap-
pliance by following these tips:
^ If your household water system is
suitable, this dishwasher can be con-
nected to a hot water supply, for fur-
ther economies.
Although all stages of the wash then
take place with hot water, savings are
made in:
- the use of primary energy,
- costs,
- programme running times.
If, however, your water is heated by
electricity we would still recommend
connection to cold water.
^ For most economical dishwashing
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
^ Choose the programme to suit the
type of crockery being washed and
the degree of soiling.
^ Select the Economy programme for
energy-saving dishwashing.
^ Use the correct amounts of deter-
gent.
^ Use only 2/3 of the given dosage if
baskets are only half full.
^ The drying heat can be switched off,
shortening the length of the
programme and saving energy. The
load then dries to a large extent in its
own heat (see "Drying heat")
