• The packaging material should not be used
as a toy.
• Knives and other utensils with sharp edges
must be placed either with the points/blades
facing downwards in the cutlery basket or
horizontally on the tip-up compartments or in
the tray/third basket, if available.
• Connect the appliance to the water mains
using the new supply hose provided with
the appliance. Do not re-use the old hose.
Install the back side of a free-standing
dishwasher against a wall.
Disposal
• To dispose of any packaging materials, follow
local legislation so that the packagings may
be reused.
• The European Directive 2012/19/EU relating
to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) states that household appliances
should not be disposed of using the
normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted
appliances should be collected separately
in order to optimise the cost of reusing and
recycling the materials inside the machine,
while preventing potential damage to the
atmosphere and public health. The crossed-
out dustbin symbol shown on all products
reminds the owners of their obligations
regarding separated waste collection.
For further information relating to the correct
disposal of household appliances, owners
may contact the relevant public authority or
the local appliance dealer.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
Saving water and energy
• Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher
is full. While waiting for the dishwasher to be
filled, prevent unpleasant odours with the
Soak cycle
(if available, see Wash Cycles).
• Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of
crockery and to the soil level using the Table
of Wash Cycles:
- For dishes with a normal soil level, use
the Eco wash cycle, which guarantees low
energy and water consumption levels.
- If the load is smaller than usual activate
the Half Load option
(see Special wash cycles and
options, if available).
• If your electricity supply contract gives details
of electricity-saving time bands, run the wash
cycles when electricity prices are lower.
The Delayed Start option can help you organise
the wash cycles accordingly
(see Special wash
cycles and options, if available).
