Efficient Dry

The appliance door opens automatic-
ally during the drying phase. This en-
sures a particularly economical dry-
ing result.
For best drying results wait until the
end of programme before unloading
the tableware. The programme has
ended when the display shows
"0h:00m".
If the automatic door opening is de-
activated, energy consumption in-
creases and the drying phase is usu-
ally reduced.

installing it under a continuous work-

jacent cabinets.
