Abstract

A lifting device for a dishwashing machine includes an electrical drive mechanism constructed to move a dishware receptacle of the dishwashing machine between a start position and an end position. A detection unit detects a current draw of the electrical drive mechanism over a travel distance of the dishware receptacle in the dishwashing machine, and an identification unit identifies a status of the lifting device on the basis of the current draw of the electrical drive mechanism detected over the travel distance.
