How to use

Load dishes according to the cutlery drawer and rack arrangement, avoiding obstructing spray arms. Select the appropriate program and temperature for the soil level and dish type — for example, use Glass or low temperatures for delicate glassware and Intensive for heavily soiled items. Use the Half Load option when washing fewer items to save water and energy. Add dishwasher salt and rinse aid as indicated by the panel indicators and, if needed, program the delayed start for convenient timing.

Usage recommendations

For best results, scrape off large food residues before loading, use the recommended dishwasher salt and rinse aid, and avoid overloading racks to ensure proper washing and drying. Regularly check and clean filters and spray arms to maintain performance.
