,
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.

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.

Interrupting a programme

A programme is interrupted as soon as
the door is opened.
If the door is closed again, the
programme will continue from the point
it was at before the door was opened.
,
Water in the dishwasher may be
hot. Danger of scalding!
Only open the door if absolutely
necessary and exercise extreme
caution when doing so. Before
closing the door again, leave it ajar
for approx. 20 seconds. This will
enable the temperature in the wash
cabinet to settle. Then close the
door firmly making sure that it clicks
into place.
