Perfectly clean, dry and hygienic dishes — all this is possible with the advanced steam cleaning system! The steam is used two steps. First the steam is used at the beginning of the cycle to loosen up dry and heavy grime, which greatly improves the washing effect. The steam is used a second time just before the end of the cycle to reduce the bacteria, to disinfect, to improve the shine and to leave everything dry.
OptiTime helps optimise the washing time we need. We could reduce the washing cycle duration if we were in a hurry or the dishes were just not that dirty. If we have very dirty dishes, then we could extend the programme time and enjoy perfect results.
OpenDry does away with wiping the dishes dry! The dishwasher door opens automatically once the cycle is complete, just enough for the dishes to dry quickly and naturally. It is an energy-saving and completely safe solution – the distance at which the door opens is 7-10 cm, and the moist air coming out of the dishwasher has a maximum temperature. 40°C, so it does not condense on furniture and will not cause any damage. If necessary, you have the option to deactivate the function. This improves convenience and reduces electricity consumption.
The BlueDot+ LED indicates when the dishwasher is running a programme (light is steady), when we can add more items (light flashes), and when we can unload the dishwasher (light is off).
Nobody likes paying their energy bills. Amica cares about our budget and the environment, so the dishwashers feature solutions that guarantee reduced power consumption, which means lower bills. The energy consumption savings of an A+++ rated dishwasher are 31% greater than for an F rated dishwasher. This means up to 95 more washing cycles a year at the same power consumption level. Amica dishwashers are efficient all around! Cost-efficient and ecological washing in one!
Noises from the kitchen are not always pleasant, especially if the kitchen is open to the living room. The dishwasher is lined with special sound-proofing mats on the inside and with the BLDC (brushless direct-current) motor, which is very silent running. That’s real comfort for our ears.
Modern antibacterial filters are made of a medium derived from triazole, which not only eliminates the pathogens separated by the medium, but inhibits their growth inside the dishwasher. It also reduces the formation of unpleasant odours. Pure hygiene guaranteed!
Ever wondered how much electricity and water a dishwasher uses? Now with written information on the control panel, we can choose our dishwashing preferences. The display gives the approximate electricity and water consumptions for the selected programme and functions. It gives us the insight for an informed optimal choice and savings!
If we care for the environment and our home budget, we are bound to appreciate dishwashers which need less water per cycle without compromising superior results. This means savings every time we use the dishwasher! Economical and ecological washing in one.
Any allergy sufferers or small children at home? The Hygiene programme heats the washing water to 70°C to ensure that even the dirtiest of dishes come out sparkling clean and free of dangerous germs. They are even clean under the lens of a microscope!
So many dishwashing settings to choose from... with Auto we do not need to remember which to use in a given situation! The dishwasher features a dedicated sensor which tests how dirty the wash water is and then adjusts the programme by choosing the optimum parameters and settings.
What if we want the dishwasher to clean well in every cycle and last for many years? The AutoCleaning programme uses 70°C to disinfect the entire dishwasher (internal surfaces, filters and racks) while extending its operating life. Effortless and sterile cleaning, for many years.
Can’t fit everything inside? We can move the top rack up or down, giving us more space for large pots or for tall cups and glasses. Now we can move the rack even when it’s fully loaded!
No dishwasher should risk flooding our home! If there is a water leak inside the dishwasher, the AquaStop system is triggered and automatically cuts off the water supply at the dishwasher inlet. Now we can be fully confident that no dishwasher accident will leave our home flooded — or our neighbour’s on the floor below.
The dishwasher is running, but we are not confident about going shopping or having a sit-down with friends while the appliance runs unattended? Of course we can go out! There is a whole array of electronic protective features to prevent the dishwasher from flooding our home. Now we can leave it running and go out or doze off on the couch if we like.
What if our dishes are sometimes not very dirty, yet we still need them clean? Now we can add less than a full load and choose the rack in which we want it all washed with ZoneWash. By selecting the top sprinkler only the items in the top rack(s) are washed, while by selecting the bottom sprinkler only the items in the bottom rack are washed. If we still want to wash a partial load with both sprinklers selected, they operate alternately. This provides tangible energy and money savings.
We all want our dishes perfectly dry! It’s easy. Simply turn on the Extra Drying function. While the drying cycle takes a bit longer than usual, the results are superior.
With Start Delay, we can set the dishwasher to start and finish while we’re away from home, so we have nothing to do but enjoy some relaxation. The maximum delay time is 24 hours, so we can even have the washing done during night, while our energy plan is at a lower tariff. Amica dishwashers are all about convenience and savings.
The large LED display for clear messages, programme choices, cycle durations, extra functionalities and error codes, all to keep operation of the dishwasher convenient and intuitive.
Start the dishwasher programme... but the detergent does not distribute as it should because the load keeps the dispenser lid closed! Here the detergent dispenser features a sliding flap action to prevent this problem, so the detergent is always released when needed, for perfect results every time. The electronic rinse aid dispenser ensures the dishes are perfectly clean and shiny, with automatic dosing of just the right amount of rinse aid.
We can deploy or fold away the shelves to make more room for the load. Fold away the shelves to add cups or cutlery in unusual sizes. This provides superior convenience and guarantees perfect washing results.
A power failure? Well there is no need to restart the entire programme when it happens. The WashRestart function saves all the settings and the exact dishwashing stage to be resumed when the power comes back on.
Ever wondered how much salt is left to soften the dishwasher water? No longer! Now the dishwasher tells us! The salt refill sensor switches on a warning LED light to show that the salt dispenser needs refilling, an essential for correct performance of our dishwasher. We can forget about that little detail of life until the next time!
Who wouldn’t want all their dishes all sparkling clean? We no longer have to wonder and check if the dishwasher has enough rinse aid in the dispenser. The rinse aid refill LED switches on when triggered by the sensor, to tell us when to add more rinse aid.
The insides of the dishwasher is made of acid-resistant stainless steel to protect against corrosion and reduce grease sticking to it. This prevents bacterial growth. The stainless-steel interior ensures longer life and hygiene of washed dishes.
Clean and hygienic results thanks to a system of three filters designed to help remove all grime. It stops the growth of mould, fungi and other microbes, to ensure efficient washing and extended dishwasher life.
