13.6.1 General characteristics
1. NTC heating element
2. Metal capsule
3. Terminals
4. Plastic casing
An NTC type probe is used to control the washing temperature: it is built in such a way that its internal resistance
decreases as the temperature rises. This drop in resistance is detected by the electronic control which, when the
desired temperature is reached, disconnects the heating element.
The temperature of the water is controlled by the circuit board by means of an NTC temperature probe
incorporated in the heating element.
