Washing dishes
Reduce costs!
If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into
the dishwasher, selecting a programme that operates
at the next lowest temperature will usually suffice.
Programme data
The programme specifications can be found in the
summary of instructions. Programme specifications
refer to normal conditions. Greater deviations may
occur due to:
different amounts of dishes
temperature of mains water supply
pressure of mains water supply
ambient temperature
fluctuations in mains voltage
machine-related factors (e.g. temperature, water
volume, ...).
Energy and water consumption is reduced by up to 1/4
when dishes are washed in the upper basket only.
Water consumption values are based on a water
hardness setting of 4.
Aqua sensor *
* some models
The Aquasensor is an optical measuring device (light
barrier) which measures the turbidity of the rinsing
water.
The Aqua sensor is used according to the programme.
When the Aqua sensor is active, “clean” rinsing water
may be transferred into the next rinsing bath and/or the
temperature adjusted. If the turbidity is greater, the
water is drained and is replaced with fresh water. In this
way water consumption can be reduced
by approx. 4 litres.

Optical indicator during operation *
* With some models
During the rinse programme a light point appears on
the floor below the device’s door. Only open the
dishwasher door when the light point has disappeared.
In the case of built-in dishwashers with flush front the
light point will not be visible.
Remaining running time display
When the appliance has started, the expected
programme running time is displayed. The programmed
running time is affected by the water temperature, the
number of dishes, as well as the degree of soiling. If
these conditions are changed, the running time
(depending on the selected programme) can vary
greatly. As the effect is not detected until a programme
is running, the time may be longer or shorter than
expected.
