1) In all dishwasher programmes with a *, during the final rinse the temperature is raised to 68° for 10 minutes to hygienically clean
e.g. babies' bottles, plastic chopping boards or jam jars.
2) The consumption values were obtained under standardised conditions. They depend on how full the baskets for the dishes are.
Variations are therefore possible in practice.
3) When using this cycle the degree of water clouding determines the amount of soiling on the dishes. The length of the cycle and
water and energy consumption can vary greatly – depending upon the load and how dirty the dishes are. Depending upon the
soiling, the temperature of the water will be automatically adjusted to between 50°C and 65°C.
4) When using this cycle, only load the dishwasher half full.
