Run programs only with a full load
Wait until the dishwasher is fully loaded before running a program, this way you save energy. Use the Rinse and hold program to rinse the dishes if there are any unpleasant odors while you wait for the dishwasher to become fully loaded.
Run programs at a lower temperature
If the dishes are only lightly soiled, you can select a program with a low temperature.
Select ECO wash
This program is the most effective in terms of energy consumption.
Select Green mode
The dishwasher has different program modes. To save energy and water, use Green mode. (Available with: Normal wash, Sanitation wash)
Open the door a little once the program has finished
Better drying results are achieved if you open the door a little once the program has ended. (If the dishwasher is built-in, the surrounding furnishings must be resistant to any condensation from the dishwasher.)
Connect to cold water
Connect the dishwasher to the cold water supply if the building is heated using oil, electricity, or gas.
Connection to hot water supply
Connect the dishwasher to the hot water supply (max. 160 °F (70 °C)) if the building is heated using an energy-efficient means such as district heating, solar power, or geothermal power. Choosing a hot water connection cuts dishwashing times and reduces the dishwasher's energy consumption.
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several reasons. Some materials cannot withstand high temperatures, others can be damaged by dishwasher detergent.
Use caution with, for example, handmade items, fragile decoration, crystal/glassware, silver, copper, tin, aluminum, wood, and plastic. Look for the "Dishwasher safe" marking.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the items feel rough) should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal/Glass
Wash fragile items made of crystal/glass, such as crystal glass from Orrefors, using the gentle dishwashing program Crystal glass. Remember to use a small amount of detergent and to place items so that they do not touch each other during the wash.
Use rinse aid to improve wash and dry times. Also use rinse aid to achieve clear and spotless results.
Hand-painted glassware, as well as antique and very fragile items, should not be washed in a dishwasher.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact, as the silver can become discolored.
Aluminum
Aluminum can lose its shine if washed in a dishwasher. However, good quality aluminum pans can be washed in a dishwasher, even if some of the shine will be lost.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In such cases, the handles may loosen.
Points to consider
• All dirty surfaces should face in and down!
• Dishes should not be placed in or on each other.
• Angle dishes with hollows, such as cups, so that the rinse water will run off. This is also important for plastic items.
• Place the upper basket in its highest position when dishwashing very large plates.
• Make sure small items cannot fall through the dishwasher basket; place them in the cutlery basket.
Using the dishwasher
Add detergent
Prewash detergent compartment
Main wash detergent compartment
Detergent is added according to water hardness.
Follow the instructions on the detergent packaging.
Too much detergent can result in less effective dishwashing and also entails greater environmental impact.
The detergent compartment must be dry when adding detergent. There is one compartment for the prewash and one for the main wash. If powder or liquid dishwasher detergent is used, add a small amount of the detergent to the prewash compartment. Contact the detergent manufacturer if you have questions about the detergent.
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser lid. There is a risk that the detergent will not be released properly if the lid is tight and cannot open correctly.
All-in-one detergent
There are many types of all-in-one detergents on the market. Read through the directions for these products carefully.
