Dishwasher Cycle Options
Intensive Zone Ï
Perfect for a mixed load. You can wash very soiled pots 
and pans in the lower rack together with normally soiled 
utensils in the upper rack. The spray pressure in the 
lower rack is intensified, the rinsing temperature is 
incresed slightly.
Power ¥
The cycle time is reduced significantly in the Power 
option. The energy consumption is increased by up to 
30% due to more intensive heating.
Half Load §
If you have only a few items to wash (e.g. glasses, cups, 
plates), you can switch to “half load”. This will save 
water, energy and time. It is recommended to put a little 
less detergent in the detergent dispenser than for a full 
load.
Extra Dry ½
An increased temperature during the final rinse and an 
extended drying phase ensure that even plastic parts 
dry better. There is a slight increase in the energy 
consumption.
Wash Cycle Information
To save energy, this dishwasher has EcoSense where 
the sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust the 
cycle length, temperature and water changes based on 
the amount of food soil and the incoming water 
temperature. The “Smart Control” makes decisions that
can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust
intermittently. Wash cycle times are based on 120°F 
(49° C) water supply. If your household water supply is 
different than 120°F (49° C), your dishwasher’s cycle 
times may be impacted.
