At The End Of A Program; Preparing Your Appliance For An Extended Vacation - Miele G 5810 Operating Instructions Manual

At the end of a program

If the door has opened slightly, and the
Finished
message
O
appears in the display, this indicates
that the program has finished.
^ Open the door completely to
re-engage the door closing
mechanism.
In the "Express" program, the drying
fan will run for a few minutes after
the program is completed.
,
If you have deactivated the auto-
matic door opening function (see
"Settings - Drying Plus"), but would
still like to open the door at the end
of the program, then make sure that
you open the door fully. Otherwise
steam from the dishwasher could
damage the edge of the counter top
because the fan is no longer
running.
^ Unload 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.
Unloading the lower basket first will
prevent water drops from the upper
basket and cutlery tray (depending on
model) from dropping onto dishes in
the lower basket.

^ Press the K button to turn the

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.
