9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY!
To avoid risk of injury, always
use caution when opening the
door during or following a wash
cycle as hot water or steam
may escape. Do not fully open
the door until water noises have
stopped and steam has
subsided.
Protection against
unintentional operation
Your dishwasher is equipped with a
function that helps to prevent
unintentional operation (e.g. by
children).
After starting the dishwasher, the
dishwasher door has to be closed
within 4 seconds, otherwise the
operation will be paused. There will
be a signal on the control panel
advising you to press the Start button
again and close the door.
This function will be activated when:
■ pressing Start to begin a wash
cycle
■ setting Delay time and pressing
Start
■ opening the door while Delay time
is active
■ opening the door during a wash
cycle.
Note: This function cannot be
deactivated.
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.
