Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2407078A2] The dishwasher (GS) has a circulating pump (UP) directing liquid against food-soiled items to be cleaned. A drain pump (LP) discharges minimum liquid volume of operating liquid volume from a pump well (PT) of the dishwasher. A filter unit (FE) prevents soil particles contained in the liquid from reaching the circulating pump. The circulating pump is activatable after activation and deactivation of the drain pump, where operating parameter of the circulation pump is evaluated to determine whether a residual liquid volume remains in the dishwasher. An independent claim is also included for a method for operating a dishwasher.
