3 Terms, Definitions and Symbols
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
dishwasher
machine which cleans, rinses and dries bowl, plate, glassware, cutlery, and, in some cases, cooking utensils by chemical, mechanical, thermal, and electric means. A dishwasher may or may not have a specific drying operation at the end of the programme
rated dishwasher capacity
whole number of place settings together with the serving pieces (see Annexes A and O) stated by the manufacturer, which can be cleaned and dried when loaded in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
3.3
operation
each event that occurs during the dishwasher programme such as cleaning, rinsing or drying
3.4
programme
series of operations which are pre-defined within the dishwasher and which are declared as suitable for specified levels of soil and/or type of load and together form a complete cycle
3.5
cycle
complete washing, rinsing, and drying process, as defined by the programme selected, consisting of a series of operations
3.6
programme time
programme time is measured from the initiation of the programme (excluding any user programmed delay) until an end of programme indicator. If there is no end of programme indicator, the programme time is equal to the cycle time
3.7
cycle time
cycle time is measured from the initiation of the programme (excluding any user programmed delay) until all activity ceases (i.e. the end of the cycle)
3.8
automatic dispenser
device activated automatically which injects or dispenses detergent, rinse agent, etc., one or more times into the dishwasher at predetermined points in the dishwasher cycle
