Delay start
You can set the start time for a
programme, e.g. to take advantage of
night time electricity tariffs. The start
time can be delayed between 30
minutes and 24 hours.
The delay period is shown in 30
minutes increments for a delay period
between 30 minutes and 9 hours 30
minutes. It is shown in hours for periods
longer than this.
When using the Delay start function,
make sure that the detergent
compartment is dry before adding
detergent. Wipe dry with a cloth if
necessary. If the compartment is
wet, powder detergent can become
lumpy and stick to the dispenser,
with the result that it is not fully
dispensed.
Do not use liquid detergent when
selecting Delay start, as it can run
into the dishwasher before it is
required.
