Abstract: A dishwasher includes a wash container for items to be washed and configured to conduct at least water during operation, and a fluid line system having an inlet valve defined by a center line and configured for direct or indirect connection of a water inlet line from a water supply network. Disposed below the wash container is a base support having an outer wall provided with a cutout. The inlet valve is secured by a support part which is lockable in the cutout and has at least one externally open locking holder, into which the inlet valve is lockable and secured therein non-movably in an axial direction. The externally open locking holder is aligned in such a manner that the center line of an inlet of the inlet valve runs at an angle between >0° and <90° in relation to a lower face of the base support.

Abstract: A dishwasher method and apparatus providing an algorithm varying the speed of the recirculation pump that recirculates washing liquor present in the washing compartment so as to assure quiet pump operation is disclosed. The speed of the recirculation pump is varied by a control device that carries out the washing cycle. A true-running monitoring unit checks the operation of the recirculation pump. During a fill phase of the washing cycle, an inlet valve is opened, the recirculation pump is switched on and the algorithm provides stepped variation of the recirculation speed using a default value step, a test step in which a true running check is performed, and a modification step in which the default value is modified in response to the result of the test step, for use in the next iteration of the algorithm.

Abstract: A dishwasher having water connections and a connection device with an output and inputs, wherein each of the inputs is connected to a respective water connection. The connection device opens the input whose assigned water connection supplies water and automatically seals all remaining inputs when the input whose assigned water connection supplies water is open.
