Program sequence indicator
lights (16)
The “Rinse” indicator light comes on in
the Rinse & Hold, Main wash, Interim
rinse and Final rinse stages of a pro-
gram.
The “Drying” indicator lights during the
drying stage of the program.
Time display (15)
The running time of the program se-
lected appears in the time display (15)
in hours and minutes before a program
is started. During a program the time
left until the end of the program is dis-
played. The “Time Left” indicator next
to the time display lights.
The time displayed may vary with the
same program. This is because of the
water inlet temperature at each intake
and because of the amount being
washed.
When the dishwasher is first turned on
the display shows an average time for a
cold water intake.
Times shown in the program chart refer
to normal loads and average tempera-
tures and are for guidance only.
Each time a program is run the elec-
tronic unit takes into account the new
conditions and calculates the program
time required. This new figure is then
displayed.
Light ring (18)
The light ring illuminates when the dish-
washer is turned on and goes out at the
end of a program.
It will come on again if the program se-
lector is turned to “Stop” or the door is
opened and then closed.
If the “Delay Start” feature is activated
the light ring will go out 10 minutes after
you have set the delayed start time.
It will come on again for 10 minutes if a
button on the control panel is pressed
or if the program selector is moved dur-
ing this delay period.
