Initial commissioning
20
Every dishwasher is tested at the
factory. There will be residual water in
the machine from this test. It is not an
indication that the dishwasher has
been used previously.
Opening the door
In some programs the door
automatically opens slightly to assist
the drying process.
This function can be deactivated, if
preferred (see “AutoOpen” under
“Settings”).
Pull the handle to open the door.
Open the door fully to disengage the
locking mechanism.
At the end of the program, if the
AutoOpen function is on, the door
locking pins automatically retract.
To prevent a technical fault, do not
hold the door locking pins firmly
when they are retracting.
If the door is opened during operation,
all functions are automatically
interrupted.
Risk of scalding due to hot
water.
During operation, water in the
dishwasher may be very hot.
During operation, only open the door
with extreme caution.
Risk of injury due to door
opening automatically.
The door may open automatically at
the end of a program.
Keep the area around the door free
of obstructions.
Closing the door
Push the baskets in.
Raise the door upward until the catch
engages.
Risk of crushing due to the door
closing.
When closing the door, you are at
risk of shutting your fingers in it.
Do not put your hand inside the door
as it is closing.
