LOADING THE DISHWASHER ECONOMIC DISHWASHING Run programs only with a full load Wait until the dishwasher is fully loaded before running a program, this way you save energy. Use the Rinse & Hold program to rinse the dishes if there are any unpleasant odors while you wait for the dishwasher to become fully loaded. Run programs at a lower temperature If the dishes are only lightly soiled, you can select a lower temperature with certain programs.
