How to improve the use of your dishwasher

Do's

  • Only use detergents formulated for domestic dishwashers.
  • Only use rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers.
  • Only use special coarse-grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, as others salts may contain insoluble additives, which can impair the functioning of the softener.
  • In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model) cutlery is cleaned and dried more efficiently if placed in the basket with the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place cutlery with sharp points with the handles upwards.

Don'ts

  • Do not use solvents in the dishwasher.
  • Avoid inhalation of powder detergents. Dishwashing detergents contain irritant or corrosive ingredients. They can cause burning in the mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
  • Do not sit or lean on the opened door.
  • Water in the dishwasher must not be used as drinking water.
  • Plastic items, which cannot withstand being washed in hot water, such as disposable plastic containers, or plastic cutlery and crockery should not be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or loose shape.
  • Do not let small children play with the dishwasher and it's controls or operate it. There is a danger that people playing might shut themselves inside the dishwasher.

Energy Saving Dishwashing

  • For most economical dishwashing make full use of the baskets without overloading the dishwasher.
  • Choose the programme to suit the type of crockery being washed and the degree of soiling.
  • Select the Economy program (if available) for energy-saving dishwashing.
  • Use the correct amounts of detergents.
  • Use only 2/3 of the given dosage if baskets are only half full.
