Standby; At The End Of The Programme; Switching Off; Unloading The Dishwasher - Miele G4500SC Operating Instructions Manual

Standby

To save energy, the dishwasher will
switch to Standby mode a few minutes
after the last time a button has been
pressed or a few minutes after the end
of the programme. The indicator lights
will go out and only the Start/Stop
indicator will flash slowly.
^ To switch the indicators on again,
press any button (apart from the
On/Off button K).
The dishwasher will not switch into
Standby mode whilst a programme
is running, if salt or rinse aid needs
to be replenished or there is a fault.

At the end of the programme

The "End" indicator light will come on at
the end of the programme.
The drying fan will continue to run
for a few minutes at the end of the
Quick wash 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 using the
On/Off button K.
The dishwasher will continue to use
electricity until it is switched off with
the On/Off button K.
If the dishwasher is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, e. g.
whilst on holiday, the stopcock should
be closed.

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 finally the
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.
