Washing Dishes
Programme selection
The most appropriate programme can be identified by
comparing the type of crockery, cutlery, etc., as well as the
amount and condition of food remains, with the details
contained in Table 2-2, the wash cycle table.
The corresponding programme sequence, duration and
consumption details are shown in the right half of the table.
Example: Use the normal programme for dishes and utensils
that are heavily soiled.
Earn savings
If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into the
dishwasher, selecting a programme that operates at the next
lowest temperature will usually be sufficient.

conditions. The values can vary considerably according to:
• Different amounts of dishes
