sanitisation. Si le programme est interrompu pendant ou après le lavage principal, ou si la température de l’eau qui alimente votre appareil 

n’est pas assez élevée pour assurer un chauffage adéquat de l’eau, les conditions de sanitisation ne sont

alors pas remplies et le voyant Sanitisé ne s’allume pas à la fin du programme.
