Hints and tips

General

Follow the hints below to ensure optimal

cleaning and drying results in daily use and

to protect the environment.

• Washing dishes in the dishwasher as

instructed in the user manual usually

consumes less water and energy than

washing dishes by hand.

• Load the dishwasher to its full capacity to

save water and energy. For best cleaning

results, arrange items in the baskets as

instructed in the user manual and do not

overload the baskets.

• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. It

increases the water and energy

consumption. When needed, select a

programme with a prewash phase.

• Remove larger residues of food from the

dishes and empty cups and glasses

before putting them inside the appliance.

• Soak or slightly scour cookware with

firmly cooked-on or baked-on food before

washing it in the appliance.

• Make sure that items in the baskets do

not touch or cover each other. Only then

can the water completely reach and wash

the dishes.

• You can use dishwasher detergent, rinse

aid and salt separately or you can use the

multi-tablets (e.g. ''All in 1''). Follow the

instructions on the packaging.

• Select a programme according to the type

of load and the degree of soil. ECO offers

the most efficient use of water and

energy consumption.

• To prevent limescale buildup inside the

appliance:

– Refill the salt container whenever

necessary.

– Use the recommended dosage of the

detergent and rinse aid.

– Make sure that the current level of

the water softener agrees with the

hardness of the water supply.

– Follow the instructions in the chapter

"Care and cleaning".

Using salt, rinse aid and detergent

• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent

designed for dishwasher. Other products

can cause damage to the appliance.

• In areas with hard and very hard water,

we recommend to use basic dishwasher

detergent (powder, gel, tablets containing

no additional agents), rinse aid and salt

separately for optimal cleaning and

drying results.

• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve

with short programmes. To prevent

detergent residues on the tableware, we

recommend that you use tablets with

long programmes.

• Always use the correct quantity of

detergent. Insufficient dosage of

detergent can result in poor cleaning

results and hard-water filming or spotting

on the items. Using too much detergent

with soft or softened water results in

detergent residues on the dishes. Adjust

the amount of detergent based on the

water hardness. Refer to the instructions

on the detergent packaging.

• Always use the correct quantity of rinse

aid. Insufficient dosage of rinse aid

decreases the drying results. Using too

much rinse aid results in bluish layers on

the items.

• Make sure that the water softener level is

correct. If the level is too high, the

increased quantity of salt in the water

might result in rust on cutlery.

What to do if you want to stop using

multi-tablets

Before you start using separately detergent,

salt and rinse aid, complete the following

steps:

1. Set the highest level of the water

softener.

2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid

containers are full.
