Here you will find an overview of the
adjustable programs. Depending on
the configuration, different programs
are offered on the device control
panel. The duration depends on the
selected program. In addition, the
running time depends on the water
temperature, amount of dishes,
degree of soiling and selected
additional function → Page 21 . Also a
disabled rinse system or lack of rinse
aid affects the running time.
The consumption values can be
found in the quick reference guide.
The consumption values apply under
normal conditions and a water
hardness of 13 - 16 °dH. Various
factors, such as water temperature or
pipe pressure, can lead to deviations.
