The invention pertains to a program-controlled household appliance comprising a user interface that permits the user to select a program or a series of program steps .
A multiplicity of household appliances with program control is known. Especially, dishwashers, in which the program steps are variable depending on the degree of opaqueness of the washing solution are disclosed e. g. by DE 42 43 868 C2 and DE 42 19 276 Al. These washing programs are generally designed as universal programs, i. e.; they adapt to the particular ascertained dirtiness of the washing solution and, for successful cleaning of the items to be washed, are supposed to deal with all types of soiling that occur. This, however, is not in any way assured for all types of soiling.
Essentially, two types of soiling can be distinguished. On the one hand, there is an easily cleaned domestic soiling. The soiling can then be cleaned relatively easily with a small expenditure of time, temperature, and water. Such soiling occurs, for example, in the case of cold foodstuffs or in the case of foodstuff residues, which have not dried on. The second type of household soiling can be cleaned only with difficulty, e. g. in the case of foodstuff residues which have burned on or which have dried on the items to be washed over a long period of time.
The disadvantages of the known methods with optical detection of the opaqueness of the washing solution is that soiling which is not yet present in the washing solution is invisible to the sensor. A further disadvantage is the inadequate measurement resolution.
Burned-on soiling residues, which are gradually released from the items to be washed, are very small by comparison with the soiling, which is already released, and therefore cannot be measured in the majority of cases. Due to these disadvantages, in the case of the known methods the washing process must always be designed so that even hard, burned-on soiling is cleaned. Consequently, the washing programs cannot be optimised to a minimum amount of time, temperature and water consumption by means of sensor control. Otherwise, a satisfactory cleaning result would not be achieved in the case of burned-on soiling.
According to EP 0 972 487 Bl a method is created which takes into account the time, temperature and water consumption. It comprises a first program structure that can be selected for easily cleaned domestic soiled items and a second program structure that can be selected for burned-on and/or dried-on domestic soiled items, whereby the degree of opaqueness of the washing solution is measured by means of an optical sensor according to transparency and foam formation of the washing solution. In the first program structure at least the washing duration is variable in the program steps, according to those measures. In the second program structure, the washing solution is heated, at least in the pre-washing to a defined temperature according to those measures.
It the object of the present invention to create a new household appliance with improved cleaning qualities.
