At The End Of A Programme; Switching Off; Unloading The Dishwasher - Miele G 1172 Vi Operating Instructions Manual

Operation

At the end of a programme

^ Open the door slightly to check that
the programme has finished.
The indicator light next to the
programme selected switches off once
the programme has finished.
If the programme indicator light is
still on, the programme has not yet
finished. Close the door again to
allow the programme to finish.
You can then empty 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:
^ Open the door.
^ Switch the dishwasher off using the
Off button V.
The dishwasher will continue to use
electricity until it is switched off with
the Off button V.
If the dishwasher is not going to be
used for a longer period of time, e. g.
whilst on holiday, the stopcock should
be turned off.

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.
