Caring for the environment
Disposing of the packing
material
The cardboard box and packing mate-
rial protects the appliance during ship-
ping. These materials are biodegrad-
able and recyclable, please recycle.
Disposing of an old machine
Before disposing of an old appliance,
please make child resistant as outlined
in the “Important Safety Instructions” by
removing power cords and doors.
Energy saving washing
This dishwasher is exceptionally eco-
nomical in the use of water and electric-
ity. For best results follow these tips:
The dishwasher can internally heat wa-
ter to the temperatures required by the
wash program. This capability allows
the option of connecting the machine to
either a hot or cold water source.
^ For lowest energy consumption and
the gentlest washing of china and
crystal, connect the dishwasher to a
cold water source.
^ For fastest possible wash times, yet
higher energy consumption, connect
the dishwasher to a hot water source.
^ For the most economical washing
make full use of the baskets without
overloading the dishwasher.
^ Choose the program best suited for
the type of dishware being washed
and the degree of soiling.
^ Select the Economy program for
energy saving dishwashing.
^ Use the correct amount of detergent.
^ Use only 2/3 the usual amount of de-
tergent when baskets are only half
full.
^ Turn off the heated drying feature to
conserve more energy (see “Addi-
tional features”).
