Compact capacity and loading flexibility
The slimline 45cm format is designed for kitchens where space is limited, while the 9-place-setting capacity is suitable for smaller households and lighter everyday demand.
ExtraComfort baskets and the MultiFlex cutlery tray provide dedicated organisation for crockery, glassware and cutlery. HalfLoad operation is useful when a full load is not available.
Quiet, convenient cleaning
At 44dB(A), this dishwasher is specified to run quietly, making it a practical option for open-plan kitchens or homes where background noise matters. The ExtraQuiet programme is rated at 40dB.
QuickPowerWash is specified to clean normally soiled crockery in 58 minutes. AutoOpen drying opens the door at the end of the programme, while SensorDry adjusts the cycle according to load and temperature conditions.
Efficiency and everyday operation
The C energy rating is supported by EcoPower water and filtration technology, while the supplied information states that the ECO programme can use 8.9 litres of water. EcoFeedback displays estimated water and electricity use when selecting a programme.
Button controls, ComfortClose and the Brilliant White finish keep the design straightforward. A hot-water connection is also supported up to 60°C, although the potential benefit depends on the installation and programme used.
