Energy Saving Tips - It is important to try and run the dishwasher when it is fully loaded in order to save on energy. To prevent odours from forming 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. - Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much detergent, the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather, a greater negative impact on the enviroment. - There is no utility in rinsing dishes, cookware and utensils before placing them in the dishwasher. 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. 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. Remove the Plug Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. 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 sponge will prevent this from occuring. 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 damp and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers. 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 within the appliance.

loaded in order to save on energy. To prevent odours 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.
Energy Saving Tips
- 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 enviroment.
- There is no utility in rinsing dishes, cookware and utensils be-
fore placing them in the dishwasher.
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.
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 damp and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made
specifically for dishwashers.
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 odours from forming within the appliance.
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 odours to form in the dishwasher is
food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a
sponge will prevent this from occuring.
