The interior holds 15 to 17 dishes, aimed at households of 2 to 3 people. With the upper tray removed and set diagonally, a frying pan up to 28cm in diameter fits inside.
The appliance includes a reservation timer settable from 1 to 18 hours in 1-hour increments, a 'dry cancel' function that skips hot-air drying to reduce power consumption, and a child lock.
