"AUTO" washin pro ramme
During the "AUTO" washing programme the
amount of soil on the dishes is determined y
how cloudy the water is.
If the appliance is partially loaded and the
dishes lightly soiled, the "prewash", "main
wash", and "rinse" phases of the programme
are shorter and the water consumption level is
lower.
If the appliance is fully loaded and the dishes
heavily soiled, the "prewash", "main wash", and
"rinse" phases of the programme are longer
and the water consumption level is higher.
For this reason the programme duration, water
and energy consumption levels can vary within
the stated range for AUTO programme (see
"Washing programmes chart").
During the "AUTO" programme the
temperature of the main wash water is also
automatically adjusted etween 50°C and
65°C depending on the amount of soil on the
dishes.
