Step by step Hints and tips Environmental information 152981 73/0 1 Important safety information It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is left with the appliance in order that the new owner can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant safety information. This information has been provided in the interest of your safety. [. . . ] As all detergents are not the same, you should also consult the instructions on the packet. If the programme has a prewash add a little amount of detergent over the lid of the dispenser. Follow the recommended quantity given in the "Washing programmes" chart (see "Instruction Book - part 2"). DE02 DE17 If using detergent in tablets proceed as follows: 1. For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the detergent dispenser. For all programmes with prewash; place a portion of a further tablet on the lid of the detergent dispenser. If your dishwasher has a SID dispenser and you require a prewash, put the extra detergent into the SID dispenser and not on the lid of the detergent dispenser. Insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor washing results, whereas an excessive amount of detergent will not improve washing results and is also wasteful. Using no more than the correct amount also contributes to reducing pollution. Compact detergents with enzymes In these compact powders the environmentally unfriendly components have been replaced by natural enzymes and other more biodegradable substances. The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving power at a temperature as low as 50°C. By choosing the 50°C programmes (if available) you can therefore achieve the same cleaning results that would otherwise be achievable only with 65°C programmes and conventional detergents. 6 M M IN AX Hints and tips To save energy Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing. If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme (see "Washing Programmes" chart) so that any food scraps do not become caked on the dishes while you are waiting to run the complete wash programme. Do not prewash dishes under running water. Items not suitable for dishwashers The following items should not be washed in the dishwasher (unless they are sold as dishwasher proof): - Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or glued parts - bronze cutlery - saucepans with wooden handles - aluminium ware - crystal ware - leaded glass - plastic items - antique or fine decorated china Certain types of decoration can discolour when washed in a dishwasher. Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not guaranteed dishwasher proof should be washed by hand. Certain types of glass can also become opaque after being washed several times in a dishwasher. A chemical reaction can occur between silver cutlery and stainless steel cutlery. Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items. Aluminium tends to go black, copper, pewter and brass tend to stain. If in doubt check with manufacturer of the item. When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher proof. For best washing and drying results Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very heavily soiled pots and pans. Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water drains off easily. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells. Leave the inside of the machine clean. Moving the machine If you have to move the machine (moving house etc. . . . ): 1. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses. [. . . ] Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or slow down the water supply. If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. This will prevent deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose. Water outlet hose connection Ø The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways: 1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it if necessary with a clip. [. . . ]
