Energy; Performance - IKEA Betrodd Manuel D'instructions

Congratulations on purchasing your water and energy efficient dishwasher! This dishwasher cleans
by spraying the dishes with water and pauses to allow the detergent to soak into and release the
soils on the dishes. The cycles are longer due to the soak and pauses for exceptional cleaning.
Your dishwasher contains an optical water sensor. The optical water sensor is used to determine
the optimum water and energy consumption for great cleaning performance. Efficient dishwashers
run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. The first cycle using
the sensor will run longer to calibrate the optical sensor.
Rinse Aid
Using rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash
performance. This dishwasher is specifically designed
to be used with rinse aid for improved drying performance
and controlling buildup of hard water deposits. Energy
efficient dishwashers use less water and energy, so they
depend on the water "sheeting" action of rinse aid for
total optimal performance.
Detergent
The United States and Canada have passed regulations
limiting the amount of phosphorus (phosphates) in
household dishwasher detergents. Major manufacturers
have reformulated their dishwasher detergents for this
change as another step in eco-conscious awareness. With
these changes, we recommend quality tablets and packs
for convenience and improved performance.
Filtration System
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher
filtration. This triple filtration system minimizes sound and
optimizes water and energy conservation while providing
optimal cleaning performance. Maintenance of your filters
regularly will sustain peak cleaning performance. We
suggest you clean both your upper and lower filters and
rinse under running water at least once a month.
