Heavy wash
Program for very dirty dishes, such as pans, casserole dishes, and
oven dishes. If these dishes do not completely fill the dishwasher,
you can add plates and other dishes that can withstand a Heavy
wash to fill out the load.
Normal wash
Use to wash normally soiled dishes, and even dishes with dried
leftovers, such as plates, serving dishes, cups, glasses, and so on.
Daily wash
A program suitable for day-to-day dishwashing. This program can
also clean dried leftovers, but is not intended for burnt food, such
as on oven dishes.
Quick wash
This program is used for glasses and porcelain that is lightly soiled,
such as coffee cups.
Super Quick
Short program lasting about 15 minutes with acceptable results
for very lightly soiled dishes.
Delicate wash
If the dishes are only lightly soiled, you can select Delicate wash.
This program is intended for glasses and porcelain that have just
been used and as such do not require such a powerful program.
This program can be used for fragile dishes. Select Short dry if you
want to be especially cautious. See also the section Fragile dishes
in the chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Eco wash
Use when you want to save energy. For normally soiled dishes.
Upper half
You can use this program if you only have cups and glasses that
need washing in the upper basket. Lightly soiled dishes can also be
placed in the lower basket.
Lower half
You can use this program when you only want to wash plates and
cutlery in the lower basket. Lightly soiled dishes can also be placed
in the upper basket.
Mixed wash
This dishwashing program is used when you have lightly soiled
dishes in the upper basket and heavily soiled dishes in the lower
basket. This program adds a prewash and has a longer program
time than Lower half.
Rinse & Dry
This program consists of a rinse with heating and drying. This is a
suitable program if, for example, you plan to make jam and want
to rinse and heat clean glass jars.
Rinse & Hold
Use to rinse dishes while you wait for the dishwasher to become
fully loaded.
SELECTING OPTIONS
To select an option, press one of the option buttons. The field

options depend on the selected program. Once you have started
the program, the options you selected are saved for the next time

option.
