Use this programme to quickly rinse the
Rinse
dishes. This prevents the remaining food
to bond on the dishes and bad odours
to come out from the appliance.
Do not use detergent with this programme.
1) The appliance senses the type of soil and the quantity of items in the baskets. It automatically adjusts the
temperature and quantity of the water, the energy consumption and the programme time.
2) This is the most silent washing programme. The pump works at a very low speed to decrease the level of
noise. Because of the low speed, the programme time is long.
3) With this programme you can wash a load with fresh soil. It gives good washing results in a short time.
4) This is the standard programme for test institutes. With this programme you have the most efficient use of
water and energy consumption for crockery and cutlery with normal soil. Refer to the supplied leaflet for
test information.
5) With this programme you can wash a load with mixed soil. Very heavy soil in the lower basket and normal
soil in the upper basket. The water pressure in the lower basket is three times higher than in the upper
basket. The temperature of the water in the lower basket is 25% higher than in the upper basket.
