Dishwasher feature glossary
3.5 Star Energy.
Our dishwa-
shers are labelled 2.5 or 3.5
stars for energy consumtion,
depending on model. This means
that our appliances are amongst
the most energy efficient in the market.
(D3630/D3530/D3152/D3231/D3132/D3122)
4 Star
Water.
All our dishwa-
shers are also labelled for their
low water consumtion. ASKO has
the best rated score of four stars.
54 cm load height.
An extra
8% dishwasher is what 4cm
gives you. Why buy a standard
82cm dishwasher when an
ASKO XL for no extra charge
will accomodate larger crockery in the top
basket. This gives our new XL even more
flexibility than our current 82cm models!
(D3530/D3231/D3152/D3132)
8 Spray.
ASKO’s spray system
consists of eight highly effective
spray zones which ensure the
whole load gets really clean. The
water reaches everywhere in
the machine thanks to the pulse-wash func-
tion. (D3630/D3530/3231)
1.
The strainer is continuously sprayed off
from the lower level.
2.
The bottom and strainer are sprayed for
improved filtration.
3.
All dishes and cutlery are sprayed clean
from below.
4.
All dishes and cutlery are sprayed clean
from above.
5.
The dishes in the upper basket are spray-
ed clean from below.
6.
A new patent-pending spray nozzle cleans
pots and pans.
7.
A spray nozzle continuously sprays the
cutlery rack.
8.
Spray zone for the upper basket and the
upper knife tray.
8 Steel.
There are few, if any,
constructions as stable as those
made of steel. No other mate-
rial lasts as long, especially in
an environment where water,
salt, rinse aid, detergent and children are
everyday factors. This is why we produce our
dishwashers with 8 of the most important
components made of high-quality steel ins-
tead of plastic.
AquaSafe™.
To assure our-
selves that you won’t expe-
rience a leaking dishwasher in
the kitchen, we’ve developed
AquaSafe™, an advanced water
safety program that partly consists of sen-
sors that detect even the slightest leak. The
system comprises 16 different points, all of
which help ensure a leak-safe dishwasher for
many years of problem-free operation.
CoolTouch™.
A fan cools the
load down to hand temperatu-
re in 30 minutes. So there’s no
risk of anyone bur ning themsel-
ves when unloading the machi-
ne. Especially useful after running a very hot
wash for pots and pans. (D3630/D3530)
Cutlery is most difficult to
clean.
Cutlery can get really
dirty and be difficult to clean.
A separate spray nozzle the-
refore concentrates on making
everything you put in the cutlery rack really
clean. The results are dazzling. A separate
top nozzle sprays the knife rack with the
same good result.
Delayed start.
The ASKO
dishwashers are fitted with a
Time Delay Start which allows
you to delay washing 0.5-24
hours. You can wash over
night and take advantage of off peak tariffs.
(D3630/D3530)
Easy-to-read panel.
We’ve
designed our dishwashers to
be easy to use. All ASKO’s
dishwashers have an electronic
controls and program memory.
Most of the time, all you have
to do is press start. The memo-
ry function keeps track of which
program you used last.
Environmental certification.
ASKO has environmental cer-
tification in accordance with
ISO 14001, which means that
everything is built in an environ-
mentally friendly way.
FlexiRacks™.
One thing you
should always take a closer look
at when you buy a dishwasher
is the baskets. After all, they are
what get used the most in the
dishwasher, and the design of the baskets and
how you can load them is an important fac-
tor for the cleaning result. The ASKO baskets
are designed to be stable and easy to slide in
and out and the baskets are flexible for easy
loading without compromising the cleaning
result. The baskets are spacious, with room
for a 14 place settings after a big dinner party.
A better planned basket saves you from
having to do extra washes, which saves water,
detergent, energy and power.
Kitchens are changing
. We
spend more and more time in
the kitchen and we are thinking
along new lines when planning.
Bench heights are increasing
as people become taller. The new standard
height is 90 cm or even more in some
cases, so we have adapted our dishwasher
accordingly. New models now come in a
height of 86 cm to fit the modern kitchen.
ASKO’s dishwashers have always been the
most spacious on the market, but now they
provide even more space for all your crock-
ery, glassware and cooking utensils. (D3530/
D3231/D3152/D3132)
NB: Not all features available on all models.
Low noise level.
Our dish-
washers consist of insulation,
insulation and even more insula-
tion. A third of the dishwasher’s
weight is made up of a highly
insulation felt material which absorbs sound
10 times better than conventional fiberglass
insulation. Furthermore, the machines are
equipped with bitumen, the same exclusive
sound-absorbing material used in luxury
cars. (D3630)
New for those of you with little
china, but lots of guests.
Quick
wash is an efficient solution that
washes slightly soiled loads in only
20 minutes (30 C, no drying).
Now you are guaranteed
the right water level.
Our
sensors work together intel-
ligently to ensure an optimum
water level in the machine.
The sensors detect when the
quantity of water exactly matches the pro-
gram you have selected, and it always lets
in the right amount of water regardless of
the water pressure in your pipes. Also, the
sensors monitor the entire wash process
and remedy any shortcomings during the
program. If, for example, you wash a large
plastic bowl which gets turned over and fills
up with water, reducing the amount of effec-
tive water in the dishwasher, the machine
immediately adds new water to ensure the
full cleaning result. The sensors also make
sure that the dishwasher does not start if
you happen to forget to turn the water on.
(D3900/D3630/D3530/D3152)
Our dishwashers have a
second life.
You can return
your ASKO dishwasher at the
end of its useful life with a clear
conscience. Every detail over
50 grams, whether made of steel, plastic or
rubber, is labeled for recycling and could
reappear in another guise.
Super Cleaning system™.
ASKO’s
patented dishwashing system
cleans the fine filter and all the
interior surfaces after pre-wash
and before running the main wash.
This means that the wash starts
with rinsed dishes, a clean machine, an empty
filter and fresh, clean water. The advantage of
this process is that the dishes come out cleaner
as they are washed without grease and left-over
food. You also save water, electricity and effort
as you do not need to rinse the dishes yourself
before loading the machine.
The intelligent automatic
program.
You no longer have
to think about which program
or option to choose to clean
and dry different kinds of load.
ASKO’s Auto Wash controls both clea-
ning and drying automatically. All you need
to do is press the start button, and the
SensiClean™ and SensiDry™ sensors ensu-
re you have the right temperature, cycle and
drying time for perfect results – with mini-
mum time, water and energy consumption.
(D3630/D3530/D3152/D3231/D3132)
The world’s most water-
efficient dishwasher.
ASKO’s
dishwashers have a professional
stainless steel construction proven
durable year after year. They have
an extremely low energy and water consump-
tion thanks to sensors in the machine adjusting
water level and temperature to the load.
Other very usable features are extra nozzles
for heavily soiled dishes, carefully developed
child safety solutions and a virtually leak proof
construction.These are just a few of the high-
lights of a robust, professional machine that will
last for many years to come.
Temperature sensor.
The built-in
heating element is controlled by a
temperature sensor, a thermistor,
which ensures that the water
in the dishwasher maintains the
right temperature. It should not
deviate by more than +/- 1ºC. This reduces
electricity consumption and means that deli-
cate items, including plastic, are not damaged
by too dramatic temperature fluctuations.
We added a buzzer so you
can hear when the machine's
finished.
The dishwasher hardly
makes a sound when running.
However, when it finishes a
buzz signals that the load is ready. Otherwise
it’s difficult to hear because the machine is
so quiet. (D3630/D3530/D3231)
Tired of cleaning the filter?
Relax. With ASKO’s new
dishwashers you only have to
clean the filter around 2 times
a year as both the strainer and
filter are self cleaning. Electro-
polished strainers and continuous airing
and spraying, combined with the patented
ASKO Super Cleaning System, keep the
strainer and filter clean. The primary strainer
gathers up any large pieces of excess food
and other dirt so it is clearly visible, and it is
quick and easy to empty.
Turbo drying.
ASKO’s fan dry
dries the dishes using an ingeni-
ous fan system. After the final
rinse, the moist air in the dish-
washer is mixed with dry air
from outside, and the machine
dries completely dry. ASKO’s fully integrated
machines also have this drying system, which
is quite uncommon on the market.
Two-hand childlock on door.
You have to hold in the childlock
at the same time as opening
the door with the handle. This
necessary two-hand maneuver
is not something children can manage, so
the dishwasher’s like a locked door to them
(excluding integrated models). However, the
childlock is easy for an adult to activate and
deactivate. (D3630/D3152/D3122)
Unique pan spraying.
At some
time or another we all leave sau-
cepans on the stove. The rice or
the sauce gets stuck on the bot-
tom, and there are better ways
of spending your time than washing these pots
and pans up by hand. ASKOs patented spray
nozzle shoots water right into the saucepan
and does the dirty work for you.
NB: Not all features available on all models.
