at the end of a programme
At the end of the programme, the dishwasher will sound.
NOTE: The condensation strip helps to prevent the risk of steam
damage to the worktop edging above the dishwasher, it is advis-
able to leave the door closed until you are ready to unload the
crockery. You can also open the dishwasher door fully until the
dishes and crockery are cool enough to unload. Do not leave the
door only partially open.
switching off the unit
For energy saving, remember to switch the dishwasher off using the
ON/OFF button. The dishwasher will continue to use electricity until it is
switched off with the ON/OFF button.
If the dishwasher is not going to be used for a long period of time, e.g.
whilst on holiday, disconnect the unit from the mains supply.
unloading the dishwasher
Allowing dishes to cool down before unloading is important as dishes
tend to break and chip more easily when they are hot. Therefore, if
you open the dishwasher door fully after switching off, it will allow the
dishes to cool down much faster.
We suggest:
Unload the lower basket rst, followed by the cutlery basket and then
the upper basket.
This will prevent water drops from the upper basket from falling on to
the dishes in the lower basket.
