Operation

Turning off the dishwasher
At the end of a program:
Open the door.
The dishwasher can be switched off
at any time using the
button.
Switching the dishwasher off during a
program stops the program.
Turning the dishwasher off during the
run-up to a delay start time (FlexiTimer)
will also stop the process.
If the dishwasher is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, e.g.,
while on vacation, the water supply
should be turned off.
Unloading the dishwasher
Dishes tend to break and chip more
easily when they are hot. Allow the
dishes to cool until they are comfortable
enough to handle before unloading
them.
The dishes 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
(depending on model).
This will prevent water drops from the
upper basket and cutlery tray from fall-
ing onto the dishes in the lower basket.
