  1. This programme offers the most efficient use of water and energy consumption for crockery and cut- lery with normal soil. This is the standard programme for test institutes. 2) Automatic door opening during the drying phase. Refer to “Settings”. 3) The appliance senses the degree of soil and the quantity of items in the baskets. It automatically ad- justs the temperature and the quantity of water, the energy consumption and the programme duration.
  2. This programme is designed to clean the inside of the appliance effectively and efficiently. It removes limescale and grease buildup. The programme should be run at least once every 2 months with a desca- ler or a cleaning product designed for dishwashers and without any load. 5) This is the most silent programme. The wash pump works at a very low speed to reduce the noise generated by the appliance. Due to the low speed, the programme duration is long.

· Put hollow items (cups, glasses and pans) with the opening facing downwards.
· Make sure that glass items do not touch each other.
· Put light items in the upper basket. Make sure that the items do not move freely.
· Put cutlery and small items in the cutlery drawer.
· Move the upper basket upwards to accommodate large items in the lower basket.
· Make sure that the spray arms can move freely before you start a programme.
10.4 Before starting a programme
Make sure that:
· The filters are clean and correctly installed.
