Auto door opening
Auto door opening at the end of the programme. This function not only provides additional convenience, but also plays the role of a signal about the end of work; in addition, the open door helps to speed up drying — excess moisture escapes through it.
Cutlery tray
Separate
cutlery tray for loading (spoons, forks, knives, etc.) into the dishwasher. Such a device is more convenient than a common basket: it allows you to load cutlery separately from the rest of the dishes, while the contents of the tray are compactly located in the “seats” specially designed for this. And the quality of washing is often higher than when using a common basket.
Energy class (new)
This parameter characterizes the efficiency of electricity consumption by a dishwasher. Classes are denotet in Latin letters from A to G, in ascending order of energy consumption. Actually, more energy-efficient models have not been added to the A class, which eventually received the marking A +, A ++, A +++. Further development of technology has made it possible to go even further, and in order not to produce pluses in energy efficiency marking, manufacturers returned to the previous indices from G to A in March 2021, where
А is the most energy efficient dishwasher. But also
class B,
C,
D and even
E are also quite economical (no worse than A +++). Accordingly, the 2021 models will have modern markings, while older models will be marked in the same way.
Noise level
The approximate noise level produced by the dishwasher during operation. In modern models, this parameter can range from 37 – 39 dB (muffled human voice) to 59 – 60 dB (loud conversation); more detailed decoding of what sound corresponds to a particular number of decibels can be found in special tables. Anyway, the
low noise level contributes to the comfortable use of the device. It is especially important if the dishwasher is to be used at night (for example, if there are reduced electricity rates at night).
Noise class
Allows people to decode the values of the noise level in decibels. It is marked in Latin letters like other classes, where A is the quietest class of dishwashers.
