3.2 AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical
measuring device (light barrier)
which measures the turbidity of
the washing water. You can save
water with the AquaSensor.
The operation of the AquaSensor
depends on the selected cycle. If
the soiling level is high, the wash-
ing water is drained off and re-
placed with fresh water. If the soil-
ing level is lower, the washing wa-
ter is used in the next rinse, so re-
ducing water consumption by 3-6
liters. In the Auto cycles the tem-
perature and run time are addi-
tionally adjusted to the level of
soiling.
