Use & Care Manual

• The market offers liquid, powder and tablet detergents with differing chemical compositions,

which may contain phosphates, or be phosphate-free but contain natural enzymes.

• Detergents containing phosphates are more effective against grease and starch at

temperatures above 140°F [60°C].

• Enzyme detergents, on the other hand, are also effective at lower temperatures (from 104° to

131°F [40 to 55°C]) and are more easily biodegradable. With enzyme detergents it is possible

to obtain at low temperatures comparable results to those which can only be achieved at

149°F [65°C] using traditional detergents. For the safeguarding of the environment we

recommend the use of phosphate and chlorine-free detergents.

THE INTRODUCTION OF DETERGENT INTO THE RINSE-AID DISPENSER, EVEN IN LIQUID

FORM, WILL DAMAGE THE DISHWASHER.

GENERAL WARNING AND RECOMMENDATIONSGENERAL WARNING AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the following

recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and their loading. There are generally no

constraints on the washing of domestic dishes, but in certain cases it is necessary to take their

characteristics into account. Before loading the dishes into the racks it is necessary to:

• Remove coarse food remains such as bones, fish bones, etc... which may clog the filter or

damage the wash pump.

• Soak any pots or pans with burnt-on food remains on the bottom to facilitate removal, then

load them into the LOWER RACK.

Use the “1/2 load wash” option for washing small amounts of dishes as it saves water and

electricity. When using this function, only load the rack selected for the 1/2 load wash - the other

rack must remain empty. There is no need to pre-wash the dishes under running water before

loading them into the racks since it only wastes water.

Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot tip over or obstruct the

rotation of the spray arms during the washing cycle.

• Do not place very small objects in the racks as these could fall and obstruct the spray arms or

the wash pump.

• Containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots should always be loaded with the opening

facing downwards and with any cavities at an angle, to allow the water to drain out.

• Do not stack dishes or place them in such a way that they cover one another.

• Do not place glasses too close together because they may knock against each other and break,

or there might be staining at the point where they touch.

MAKE SURE THAT THE ITEMS BEING WASHED ARE DISHWASHER-SAFE. MAKE SURE THAT THE ITEMS BEING WASHED ARE DISHWASHER-SAFE.

Items which are not dishwasher-safe:

• Wooden utensils and dishes, pots or pans: these may be damaged by the high washing

temperatures.

• Handcrafted items: these are rarely suitable for washing in a dishwasher. The relatively high

water temperatures and the detergents used may damage them.

• Lightweight objects: place lightweight objects in the upper rack where the water pressure is

lower.

• Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass: these tend to stain.

• Aluminum dishes: items made from anodized aluminum may lose their color.

• Silverware: silver items may stain.
