ASKO DBI344IB.S Undercounter Dishwasher 14 Place Settings Stainless Steel 42 dB Energy Class A

The ASKO DBI344IB.S full-size undercounter dishwasher is engineered to deliver efficient and reliable daily cleaning performance for modern households. Featuring a durable stainless steel door finish and an integrated undercounter design, this appliance seamlessly blends into contemporary kitchen cabinetry. With a generous capacity of 14 place settings, an XL internal loading height, and a flexible three-level basket system featuring nylon coated steel flexiracks and telescopic rails, it easily accommodates large cookware, tall wine glasses, and everyday tableware. Operating at a quiet 42 dB noise level with a noise emission class of B, this dishwasher ensures minimal disruption in open-plan living spaces. It incorporates advanced technologies such as the Super Cleaning System to rinse filters before the main wash, Turbo Combi Drying with automatic door opening for effective natural drying, and the Aqua Safe water safety system with a PEX inlet hose and anti-block drain pump.

Advantages

This dishwasher utilizes steel across eight key components, including the container, loading racks, spray arms, and outer base, ensuring enhanced durability and structural integrity. The Super Cleaning System prepares the appliance by rinsing fine filters and interior surfaces before the main wash cycle begins, contributing to consistently clean results. The Turbo Combi Drying system combines mechanical drying with natural indoor air circulation by automatically opening the door at the end of the cycle. Water efficiency is a key strength, consuming only 9.4 liters per cycle while maintaining an energy efficiency class A rating and using 54 kWh per 100 cycles. The inclusion of adjustable power zones, dedicated knife holders, a removable top cutlery tray with Instant Lift height adjustment, and smooth-gliding telescopic rails provides exceptional flexibility during loading and unloading.

Suitable for

• Daily dishwashing for large households with up to 14 place settings per load
• Modern built-in kitchen installations requiring a full-size 60 cm undercounter appliance
• Washing bulky cookware, large pots, and pans using adjustable power zones

When it may not be suitable

How to use

Begin by scraping excess food scraps from your dishes and loading them into the upper and lower baskets, making use of the adjustable flexiracks, foldable pin rows, and the top cutlery tray. For tall bottles, vases, or heavily soiled pots, adjust the manual power zones to provide targeted high-pressure water jets or wider spray patterns. Add appropriate dishwasher detergent to the dispenser, close the stainless steel door securely, and select your desired program such as intensive, quick, or universal washing. You can also utilize the 24-hour delayed start timer to run the cycle at your convenience. Once the wash cycle finishes, the Turbo Combi Drying system will automatically open the door to complete the drying process using natural indoor air before you unload the clean tableware.

• Verify that your water supply and drainage connections are compatible with the integrated Aqua Safe system and PEX inlet hose.
• Consider your household dishwashing volume to ensure the 14 place setting capacity and XL internal loading height meet your daily requirements.
• Check electrical supply compatibility for standard appliance operation and energy class A consumption levels.

Usage recommendations

To maintain optimal cleaning performance and prolong the lifespan of your appliance, regularly inspect and clean the fine filters, ensure spray arms rotate freely without obstruction from large dishes, and use recommended rinse aids and detergents. Periodically run maintenance cycles and keep the exterior stainless steel surfaces clean using non-abrasive cloths.
