Changing/interrupting/cancelling a
dishwashing cycle

Only change or interrupt a dishwashing cycle
that is in progress if it is absolutely neces-
sary. After the appliance has been closed
again, the air that has entered will be heated
significantly and expand. As a result, water
may collect in the base of the appliance and
trigger the anti-flood system.

Load Sensing
If a wash programme is started even though there are
only a few dishes in the upper and/or lower basket, an
intelligent electronic system adjusts the amount of
water and the duration of the wash programme to the
number of dishes. By this means it is possible to
wash only a few dishes quickly and economically. At
half load (6 place settings), up to 2 litres of water and
0.2 kWh of electricity are saved.
