3) ”ECO”-washing system
a) Advantages of the “ECO” function
Due to the „ECO“ washing systems, with the ECO-ball in the durit-hose, the user
achieves a high washing and rinsing result with a low consumption of detergent.
The detergent does not fall down as far as to the drain area during the filling cycle,
but remains on the ECO-ball usable for the washing cycle.
b) Principle
During the filling cycle, a part of the water is conducted through the hose (9) into the
fluff filter housing.
The water level in the fluff filter housing increases until the ECO-ball floats up in the
durit hose and locks the way to the tub (see figure).

The further existing water pressure is passed on through the hose (12) into the tub.
When selecting the drain pump, the ECO-ball is drawn downwards because of the
underpressure, the water in the tub can be drained.
