Leak Prevention System

For protection from damage due to water leaks, the dishwasher is 
equipped with a leak prevention system, the AQUA CONTROL SYSTEM. 

In the event of a fault, the drain pump switches on. By this means 
water can neither escape nor overflow. The remaining water in the 
appliance is automatically pumped out. 

1 

The AQUA CONTROL SYSTEM also works when the appliance is switched 
off – the appliance must however 

not

 be disconnected from the mains.
