Pre-Wash(on applicable models)

The pre-wash programme option serves to perform a pre-wash cycle before the main programme. This cycle enables cookware, e.g. pans, bowls etc. to be pre-soaked and pre- rinsed in the lower rack. If you wish to pre- soak the dishes, this programme option must be selected by pressing the “Prewash” button before the programme starts. The recommended detergent amount is approx. 5g poured onto the inside of the door.

Quick Wash (on applicable models) Pressing the “Quick wash” button provides a short wash cycle by curtailing the drying phase and the washing time. The washing and drying performance will be reduced with the Quick wash programme option.

Time-remaining indicator

The time-remaining indicator is self-learning. When the programme begins, it displays the estimated duration of that programme. The figure is based upon the duration of the previous programme, or if the dishwasher is being used for the first time, the duration of the programme used for testing the appliance in the factory. While the programme is running, the indicator shows the amount of time before the programme ends. The time remaining is also adjusted to account for the temperature of the water supply and the number of dishes.

Intensive drying function

Activating the intensive drying function increases the temperature during the rinse- aid stage which gives better drying results.

Changing the programme

It is possible to change the programme within 2 minutes after you have switched the dishwasher on.

Should it be necessary to change the programme after this period, the programme cycle that has already begun (eg. washing) will be completed first of all.

The new, remaining time displayed is the sum of the remaining time from the previous programme cycle and the remaining time of the newly selected programme.
