Abstract: A device for customizing a washing program for removing soiling from items being washed in a water-conducting household appliance includes a sensor configured to acquire spectral measurement values of organic compounds in washing water in the water-conducting household appliance. A determination unit determines functional groups of the organic compounds based on the acquired spectral measurement values of the organic compounds, and a customization unit customizes washing parameters of a current washing program based on the determined functional groups.

Abstract: A water-carrying household appliance includes a receiving unit for receiving at least one signal from an external device coupled to the household appliance, a number of actuators for executing a plurality of programs, and a selector unit for selecting a program from the plurality of programs as a function of the at least one signal received. The actuators are controlled by a control unit so as to execute the selected program.

Abstract: A cleaner cartridge for a household dishwasher includes active substances for cleaning items to be washed and/or the household dishwasher. A first chamber of the cleaner cartridge accommodates one of the active substances at an amount sufficient for a number of wash cycles, and a second chamber of the cleaner cartridge accommodates one of the active substances at an amount sufficient for only one wash cycle.

Abstract: A domestic appliance having a metering device into which a storage insert containing additive substances can be inserted and by means of which additive substances can be dispensed in metered fashion during a number of cleaning operations. The metering device is distinguished in that it has an interface device for interacting with different storage inserts.

Abstract: A water-conducting household appliance and a method for disinfecting a conduit system of a water-conducting household appliance. The method feeds a gaseous disinfectant into a liquid circulating in the conduit system. The water-conducting household appliance includes a conduit system for circulating liquid, and a disinfector with a gas injector for injecting a gaseous disinfectant into a liquid circulating in the conduit system.

Abstract: A method for operating a water-conducting domestic appliance, including a domestic dishwasher, wherein the water-conducting domestic appliance includes a program controller for performing a plurality of sequential program steps and the program controller operatively interacts with at least a detergent-dosing system, the method including the step of adding at least one cleaning substance having a function during at least one program step.

Abstract: A dishwasher is provided that advantageously enables reduction of the amount of water required during the rinsing cycle in order to thereby minimize operational costs and to improve environmental compatibility. A water preparation system has a water preparation container which can receive at least one part of the rinsing liquid used during operation of the dishwasher. The impurities contained in the rinsing liquid are at least partially biodegraded during a water preparation phase with the aid of microorganisms. By preparing and recycling at least one part of the used rinsing water, it is possible to reduce the requirement for fresh water. This enables the burden on the environment to be reduced since at least one part of the water used during the rinsing process is biologically cleansed while it is still in the dishwasher and the requirement for fresh water for the dishwasher is thus reduced.

Abstract: A dishwashing machine is provided with a washing compartment, an ozone generator, and devices for washing items to be washed using a washing solution, as well as with a storage device that is connected to the washing compartment in an air-conducting manner. The storage device serves, on the one hand, to store ozone and/or hydroxyl radicals as they form or are produced and, on the other hand, to release ozone and/or hydroxyl radicals during a partial program step drying and/or a non-operating phase of the dishwashing machine whereby effecting a deodorizing.

Abstract: A dishwasher is provided that allows oxygenating gases, especially ozone, to be effectively used at least for cleaning and disinfecting. An oxygenating gas is added to the rinsing liquor or the crude water and/or the washing container for use in a partial program cycle having a cleaning effect, e.g. the “cleaning” cycle, in order to be able to use the gas at least for cleaning and disinfecting.

Abstract: A dishwasher including at least one washing compartment for receiving dishes to be washed, to which washing liquid is applied during a washing operation, and an atomization facility for atomizing one of the washing liquid and the washing liquid mixed with active detergent substances, wherein the atomization facility includes an ultrasound generator, and a blower that conveys the atomized washing liquid into the washing compartment.

Abstract: A dishwasher is provided with a storage container for rinsing water, the dishwasher being particularly simple and economical to produce, whereby the space loss in the dishwasher is kept very low. The storage reservoir is a flexible film bag, which may be matched in volume to the volume of the liquid.
