At the end of a program
A program has finished when no indica-
tor lights are illuminated in the program
sequence display (16) and “0” shows in
the time display (15).
The dishwasher can now be opened
and unloaded (see “Unloading the
dishwasher”).
If the dishwasher is left closed the fan
will continue to run for a few more min-
utes to remove any remaining moisture.
This process is not part of the program.
Do not open the door immediately after
a program has ended unless dishes or
cutlery are urgently needed.
Turn off the dishwasher once the wash
program has finished unless another
program is to be started immediately.
Turning off the dishwasher
At the end of a program:
^
Turn the program selector (18) to
“Stop”.
The decimal point in the time display
(15) and the light ring around the pro-
gram selector will light.
^
Press the “On/Off” button (14).
The decimal point in the time display
(15) and the light ring around the pro-
gram selector go out.
The dishwasher continues to use
electricity until turned off using the
“On/Off” button.
If the dishwasher is not going to be
used for a long period of time, e. g.
while on vacation, it is advisable to turn
the water valve off.
