Abstract: A dishwasher, in particular a domestic dishwasher, includes a dishwasher cavity for receiving an item to be washed. A door or flap is configured to close the dishwasher cavity and movable between an open and a closed position. Associated to the door or flap is a two-stage or multi-stage safety catch for transition between an open and a closed state of the door or flap. A device is provided to capture whether the door or flap is closed or open and to detect a traversal of the two-stage or multi-stage safety catch.

Abstract: A water-conducting household appliance having at least one water-conducting component; a hot water connection having a first feed valve to connect the household appliance to a hot water network and a first inlet line connecting the first feed valve to the at least one water-conducting component; and a cold water connection having a second feed valve to connect the household appliance to a cold water network and a second inlet line connecting the second feed valve to the at least one water-conducting component. A temperature measurement facility is disposed in the hot water connection and measures a temperature of hot water from the hot water network.

Abstract: A ventilation apparatus optimizes the ventilation of refuse receptacles. To this end, a sensor is placed inside a refuse receptacle and serves to detect fermentation gases, water vapor or the like. A sensor signal is used in turn to regulate or control a fan that withdraws gases and vapors from the refuse receptacle. A manual control of the ventilator by specifying the desired operating time is also conceivable. In addition, a nonreturn flap is provided inside the suction tube that prevents gases and vapors from flowing in the opposite direction out of a drain system and into the receptacle.
