This dishwasher achieves A ratings for washing & drying performance & an A++ rating for energy efficiency. 14 place settings Adjustable racking makes it a simple job to load crockery & glassware for 14 place settings. The upper basket is adjustable so it can be raised to make room to load larger pots & pans into the lower basket. Automatic operation You can simply load the dishwasher & select the automatic programme, leaving the machine to clean your dishes & make the best use of energy, water & time. A sensor monitors the dirt in the rinsing water & calculates the wash cycle according to the size of the load & the degree of soiling. It controls the water pressure & temperature & the duration of the washing cycle to get the dishes clean without using excessive amounts of water or energy. Flexible You decide when you want your dishwasher to run by activating its delay start function. You can program the start time up to 24 hours ahead. Wash programmes include an extra dry option & a zone Wash, which means that you can direct extra washing power to either the upper or the lower basket. You can achieve 30% extra cleaning power than a standard intensive cycle by selecting the zone wash together with the intensive programme. All you have to do is to decide which basket to designate for an extra-intensive clean. Energy-saving The dishwasher has a time remaining indicator to tell you exactly how long to go before completion & a muted 41d B noise level, thanks to an advanced brushless motor & sound insulating panels, so you won't be disturbed. It has an A++ energy rating. Programmes Auto Intensive Auto Normal Auto Fast Eco Duo Wash Delicates Express 30-minute Soak
