Delay Start - Miele G 4960 Operating Instructions Manual

Programme options

Delay start

You can set the start time for a pro‐
gramme, e.g. to take advantage of night
time electricity tariffs. The start time
can be delayed between 30 minutes
and 24 hours.
The delay period is shown in 30-minute
increments for a delay period between
30 minutes and 9 hours 30 minutes. It is
shown in hours for periods longer than
this.
When using the Delay start function,
make sure that the detergent com‐
partment is dry before adding deter‐
gent. Wipe dry with a cloth if neces‐
sary. If the compartment is wet,
powder detergent can become lum‐
py and stick to the dispenser, with
the result that it is not fully dis‐
pensed.
Do not use liquid detergent when se‐
lecting Delay start, as it can run into
the dishwasher before it is required.

To prevent children coming into
contact with dishwasher detergent:
Add the detergent immediately be‐
fore starting the programme, i.e. be‐
fore activating Delay start by closing
the door.
