To save energy

Place dishes in the machine immediately after

every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full

before washing.

If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme

(see Programme Chart on the following pages),

so that any food scraps do not become caked on

the dishes while you are waiting to run the

complete wash programme.

Do not prewash dishes under running water.

Select a “Quick” programme when the dishes

are not very soiled, following the instructions

given in the “Washing programmes” chart.

For best washing results:

Before loading remove all scraps of food and

soak very heavily soiled pots and pans.

Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc.

upside-down.

Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so

that the water drains off easily.

Avoid contact between the dishes as far as

possible.

You will improve drying results by leaving the

dishwasher door ajar for at least 15-30 minutes

as soon as the programme finishes.

Wait a few minutes before removing the dishes;

in this way they will be cooler and the drying will

be improved.

Empty the lower basket first and then the upper

one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper

basket onto the dishes in the lower one.

Items not suitable for dishwashers:

The following items should not be washed in

the dishwasher (unless they are sold as

dishwasher proof):

- Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or

glued parts

- bronze cutlery

- saucepans with wooden handles

- aluminium ware

- crystal ware

- leaded glass

- plastic items

- antique or fine decorated china

Certain types of decoration can discolour when

washed in a dishwasher.

Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not

guaranteed dishwasher proof should be washed

by hand.

Certain types of glass can also become opaque

after being washed several times in a

dishwasher.

A chemical reaction can occur between silver

cutlery and stainless steel cutlery. As a

precaution, do not wash together.

Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain

other items.

Aluminium tends to go black, copper, pewter

and brass tend to stain.

If in doubt check with manufacturer of the

item.

When buying new dishes, ensure that they

are dishwasher proof.
