Operation
42
Turning off the dishwasher
Open the door.
The dishwasher can be turned off at
any time using the
button.
Turning the dishwasher off during a
program stops the program.
You can also do this to stop an ongoing
timer.
Risk of damage from leaking
water.
Leaking water can cause damage.
If the dishwasher is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, e.g.,
during vacations, the water supply
faucet should be turned off.
Unloading the dishwasher
Dishware tends to break and chip more
easily when it is hot. Allow dishware to
cool until it is comfortable enough to
handle before unloading it.
The dishware will cool much faster if
you open the door when the program
has ended.
First unload the lower basket, then
the upper basket, and finally the
cutlery tray.
This will prevent water drops from the
upper basket and cutlery tray from
falling onto the dishes in the lower
basket.
