Zeolith drying automatically helps to
save energy.
Zeolith drying
The appliance features a Zeolith con-
tainer. Zeolith drying lets you save
energy.
Zeolite is a mineral that can store
moisture and heat energy and then
release them again.
During dishwashing heat energy is
used to heat up the washing water
and dry the mineral.
During the drying phase moisture
from the interior of the dishwasher is
stored in the mineral and heat energy
is released. The heat energy is blown
out into the interior of the dishwasher
with dry air. This speeds up and im-
proves drying.
Zeolith drying therefore saves a great
deal of energy.
Tip:
To avoid impairing Zeolith drying
performance, do not position table-
ware parts directly in front of the in-
take opening or the blow opening of
the Zeolith container.
Do not position heat-sensitive table-
ware parts directly in front of the blow
opening of the Zeolith container.

AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical meas-
uring device (light barrier) which
measures the turbidity of the rinsing
water. You can save water with the
AquaSensor.
Use of the AquaSensor depends on
the programme. If the soiling level is
high, the rinsing water is drained off
and replaced with fresh water. If the
soiling level is lower, the rinsing wa-
ter is used in the next wash cycle, so
reducing water consumption by 3-6
litres. In the automatic programmes
