Instruction for use

Dear Customer,

“Intelligent Dialogue” is the new programme for free-standing appliances from Bauknecht. New intelligent and practical functions allow more free time for the things that are really important in life.

The new “Intelligent Dialogue” dishwasher from Bauknecht, with its direct dialogue between man and machine, represent a whole new approach to operating appliances. The new “Intelligent Dialogue” dishwasher from Bauknecht speaks a completely new appliance language. The electronic LCD display guide you in a focused and userfriendly manner through all the wash cycles and wash functions and even actively assist should problems arise. Due to an innovative interval-based washing system, the new dishwashers achieve better performance with decreased consumption of water and power. Stated clearly: only 13 litres of water for a cycle length that has been reduced to 110 minutes.

The new LCD display willingly provides information: it “tells” how to correctly

programme the appliance, continuously indicates cycle lengths and time remaining, and monitors the wash process from start to finish. In addition, the dishwasher’s memory function immediately saves, for the next time, the most recent wash cycle selected. And that is not all Intelligent Dialogue is capable of: the appliance provides hints and tips on how to remove stubborn grime from kitchenware plus a “help programme” and suggestions on how to fix faults. In case it should be required, the LCD display, also provides the telephone number of the customer service contact.

Thanks to proven, patented Dynamic Sense Technology, “senses” all on its own, just how much water, time and energy the dishwasher requires in order to produce a spotless result each time. In this way water and energy consumption can be reduced by up to 30%. The environment and your purse will thank you for it.

You are sure to enjoy your quality Bauknecht purchase for a long time to come!
