Selecting Options; Status Light; Power Failure; Time Remaining - Asko D5896 XXL Operating Instructions Manual

Selecting Options

Press Option/Set and then the navigation button < or > to select
an option. Confirm your selection by pressing Option/Set.
The available options depend on the selected program. (Exit the
menu by pressing the navigation button < or > until Exit? appears
on the display. Confirm your selection by pressing Option/Set.)
Drying: Short/Long
A higher temperature in the final rinse and a longer drying phase
improves the drying result if you activate this option. This slightly
increases the energy consumption. When you start a program,
the option selected is saved for the next time you turn on the
dishwasher. To save energy, select Drying: Short.
This option can be selected in the following programs: Heavy
wash, Daily wash, Eco wash, Normal, Quick wash, Lower half
wash, Upper half wash, Hygiene wash.
Set time (Time program)
You can choose a program time between 15 minutes and 2 hours
30 minutes.
Time saver: On/Off
This option shortens the program time, but uses more energy
and water.
This option can be selected in the following programs: Heavy
wash, Upper half wash, Lower half wash.
Delayed start: 1-24 hours
When you select Delayed start, the dishwasher will start 1–24
hours after you press the Start/Stop button.
1 Press the navigation button < or > to set the desired number
of hours.
2 Press Start/Stop and the dishwasher counts down 1 hour at
a time and starts after the selected delay.
Press and hold Start/Stop for three seconds if you want to cancel
the Delayed start option.
Start the dishwasher
Press and hold Start/Stop until the display shows "Program
started". This indicates that the dishwasher is ready to start. Close
the door properly, or the dishwasher will not start.
NOTE!
If the machine does not start within 2 minutes of the last button
press, the display returns to showing the last program run.

Time remaining

Once you have selected a program and options, the display indi-
cates how long the program took the last time it was used.
This may differ somewhat from time to time depending on the
temperature of the water supply, the amount of dishes, the ambi-
ent temperature and other factors.
NOTE!
During the first run of each program, the remaining time dis-
played can be slightly misleading, as the dishwasher is estimat-
ing the time. When you run the program a second time, the
dishwasher will calculate the remaining time based on the
previous duration of the program.

Status light™

The status light at the bottom on the dishwasher provides infor-
mation by means of 3 different colours.
Status light
Blue
Load more. The program has started, but you can still load more
dishes.
Red
Do not load. You should not load more dishes (risk of poorer
dishwashing result).
Green
Unload. The dishwashing program is finished. Standby light for
60 minutes.
Stopping or changing a program
If you want to change program after starting the dishwasher,
open the door then press and hold Start/Stop for three seconds.
Add more detergent if the lid of the detergent dispenser has
opened. Then choose a new program, press Start/Stop and close
the door.
Do you want to add more dishes?
Open the door. The dishwasher stops automatically. Add the
dishes, close the door and the dishwasher continues the program.
If the dishwasher is turned off using
the main power switch or due to a

power failure

If the dishwashing program was not finished, the interrupted
program continues when power is restored.
NOTE!
During drying, the program is interrupted if the power is cut or
the door is open for more than 2 minutes.
