Operation

At the end of a programme

The End indicator light will come on at the end of the programme.

The dishwasher can now be opened and unloaded (see “Unloading the dishwasher”).

,

To prevent the risk of steam damage to the worktop edging above the dishwasher it is advisable to leave the door closed until you are ready to unload the crockery.

Alternatively you can open the door fully until the crockery is cool enough to unload. Do not leave the door only partially open.

Switching off

At the end of a programme:

^ Switch the dishwasher off with the

On/Off button s.

The dishwasher will continue to use electricity until the On/Off button s is switched off.

If the dishwasher is not to be used for a longer period of time, e. g. whilst on holiday, the stopcock 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.

If you open the door fully after switching off, the dishes will cool much faster.

^ First unload the lower basket, then the upper basket and cutlery tray

(depending on model).

This will prevent water drops from the upper basket and cutlery tray from falling onto the dishes in the lower basket.
