AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical
measuring device which measures
the cleanliness of the rinse water.
The AquaSensor is used according
to the wash cycle. If the AquaSensor
is active, “clean” rinse water can be
transferred to the next rinse and
water consumption can be reduced
by 0.8–1-5 gal (3–6 liters). If the
rinse water is not yet clear, the water
is drained and is replaced with fresh
water. In the automatic wash cycles
the temperature and running time
can also be adjusted to the degree of
soiling.
Time display
The wash cycle time is determined
during the wash cycle by the water
temperature, the amount of dishes,
as well as the degree of soiling and
may vary (depending on the selected
wash cycle). You can change the
time display into time of day or
hours/minutes so that the remaining
cycle time of the wash cycle appears
in the display window “Finish at” (for
example 15:20 o’clock) or “Finish in”
(for example 3:25 hours).
Sensor setting
The wash cycle sequence is
optimized in Auto wash cycles with
the aid of sensors. The sensors
adjust the wash cycle strength of
Auto wash cycles depending on the
amount and type of soiling. You can
adjust the sensitivity of the sensors in
3 stages.
Standard: This setting is recommend
for daily regular or typical use. This is
the most energy efficient setting.
Sensitive: This setting adjusts the
wash cycle strength for the effective
removal of food remnants, even if the
amount of soiling is low. The energy
and water consumption is increased
accordingly.
Very sensitive: This setting adjusts
the wash cycle strength for difficult
conditions of use, for example firmly
dried on food remnants. This setting
is recommended if using biological
or eco detergents which contain
lower amounts of active agents. The
energy and water consumption is
increased accordingly.
Extra Dry
The final rinse uses a higher
temperature which improves
the drying result. The cycle time may
increase slightly. (Caution if utensils
are delicate!) You can switch the
Extra Dry function on or off. There is
a slight increase in energy
consumption.
Eco forecast
When Eco forecast is activated, the
average water and energy
consumption of the selected wash
cycle is briefly displayed in the digital
display @.
Auto power off
This setting determines the length of
time the control panel stays
illuminated after the cycle is
complete.
To save energy, the recommended
setting is “after one minute”.
Possible settings are:
■ off: The appliance does not
switch off automatically.
■ After one minute: The appliance
switches off after 1 minute. This is
the most energy efficient setting.
■ After two hours: The appliance
switches off after 2 hours.
