End of program
At the end of a program, the optical
interface flashes with the door closed.
The program has finished when
O
End
or
AutoOpen
is displayed and the door
is slightly ajar.
If Extra drying was selected and
AutoOpen is active, the drying fan
will run for a few minutes after the
program has ended.
^
Open the door all the way to reset the
door latch.
^
Unload the dishwasher.
If the door is closed, the optical
interface goes out 10 minutes after the
program has ended.
,
If if the AutoOpen function is
deactivated (see Settings menu -
AutoOpen) and you want to open
the door after the program has
ended, open the door all the way.
Otherwise steam from the
dishwasher could damage the edge
of the countertop because the fan is
no longer running.
Turning the dishwasher off
At the end of a program:
^
Open the door.
^
Press the
-
button to turn the
dishwasher off.
The dishwasher will continue to use
electricity until it is turned off with the
-
button.
Unloading the dishwasher
Dishes tend to break and chip more
easily when they are hot.
Leave the dishes in the dishwasher until
they are cool enough to handle before
unloading them.
The dishes will cool much faster if you
open the door when the program has
ended.
Unload the lower basket first, then the
upper basket and then the cutlery tray
(depending on model).
This will prevent water from the upper
basket and cutlery tray from dripping
onto dishes in the lower basket.
Preparing your appliance for
an extended vacation
If you elect to turn off the water to your
home for an extended period of time,
please note that this may not be
enough to reduce the risk of a leak.
To be completely safe, you must
turn off the water supply to each
individual appliance. This means
under the sink for a dishwasher, at
the laundry bib for your washer, etc.
