and properly disposing of reusable
materials. Aquasensor 1
The aquasensor is an optical
measuring device (photocell) with
which the turbidity of the washing
water is measured. Water can be
saved with the aqua sensor.
The use of the aquasensor depends
on the specific program. If the soiling
is low, the washing water is also used
during the next washing phase and
the water consumption can be
reduced by 3-6 litres. If the
contamination is greater, the washing-
up water is pumped out and replaced
with fresh water. In the automatic
programs, the temperature and
running time are also adapted to the
degree of soiling.
Disposal of the packaging
The packaging materials are
environmentally friendly and can be
recycled.bro
▶Dispose of the individual components
separately according to type.
You can obtain information about the
current disposal methods from your
dealer and your municipal or district

on the selected program. In addition,
the running time depends on the
water temperature, amount of
