Welcome to the Electrolux dishwasher product page

A dishwasher is an essential appliance in the kitchen. It cleans more thoroughly and uses less energy and water compared to handwashing.

Explore our wide range of freestanding and built-in dishwashers that are designed to deliver quality, reduce your workload in the kitchen, and guarantee optimal efficiency. Electrolux dishwashers are available for 10 to 14 people servings.

Dishwasher capacity guide

Consider the size of your household when choosing a dishwasher. The number of people in your household will determine the appropriate dishwasher capacity, as it correlates with the required place settings. Use the following guide to select the ideal dishwasher capacity based on your household size:

Household size	Capacity
1-2 people	6-9 place settings
3-4 people	9-12 place settings
5+ people	12+ place settings

Dishwasher size

The standard size for a dishwasher is 600mm wide, 850mm high, and 600mm deep, fitting at least 10 place settings. For small kitchens, a compact dishwasher of 550mm wide, 604mm high, and 500mm deep can accommodate 8 place settings.

Here’s a guide for dishwasher size and corresponding number of place settings:

Dishwasher dimensions (WxHxD)	Dishwasher place settings

Types of dishwashers

Built-in dishwasher
This dishwasher is permanently installed under your kitchen countertop and can be fully or partially integrated with your cabinetry. Built-in dishwashers come in stainless steel, white, or black finishes and can be concealed behind cabinetry or have a visible front control panel.

Freestanding dishwasher
A tabletop dishwasher on wheels that can be temporarily attached to your sink. It can be placed anywhere with water and drainage access. Freestanding dishwashers come in stainless steel, white, or black finishes and various size variations to suit most kitchen spaces.

Other dishwasher features to consider

• Connection: Your dishwasher will require a power supply, water supply, and wastewater drainage. It's recommended to have a professional install and connect it for you.
• Installation: Measure the available space and the dimensions of the dishwasher accurately. Consider rear ventilation and the 'air gap' to protect against flooding.
• Noise: Look for models with sound levels at 45 dB or under for a quiet experience. Some models have an Extra Silent program running at a virtually silent 37dB.
• Energy efficiency: Consider dishwashers with half load settings and delayed starts to save on bills and energy consumption.

FAQs about dishwasher

1. How do I clean my dishwasher?
To keep your dishwasher running efficiently, clean the filter and spray arms regularly. Once a month, run an empty cycle with a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of white vinegar to remove grease and limescale buildup.

2. How do I install a dishwasher?
Dishwasher installation typically involves connecting the water inlet, drain hose, and power supply. We recommend using a professional installer to ensure proper setup and avoid leaks or electrical issues.

3. What detergent should I use in a dishwasher?
Use dishwasher-specific detergent — tablets, powder, or gel — and always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines. Avoid using regular dish soap, as it can cause excess suds and damage the machine.
