the door is closed.
 Press the Start or OK button.
The program will begin.
The Start indicator light will come on.
A program should only be canceled

erwise important program stages

Time display

The estimated duration of the program
selected appears in hours and minutes
in the display before the program be‐
gins. During the program, the time left
until the end of the program is dis‐
played.
Each program stage is indicated by a
symbol:
 Pre-wash / Soak
Main wash

Interim rinse


The program duration displayed may
vary with the same program. It is influ‐
enced by, among other things, the wa‐
ter temperature at each intake, the re‐
activation process, the type of deter‐
gent, the amount of dishware, and the
amount of soiling.
When a program is selected for the first
time, the display shows an average
time for a cold water intake.
The times shown in the program over‐
view refer to standard test loads and
temperatures.
Each time a program is run, the elec‐
tronic module calculates the program
duration required according to the tem‐
perature of the water taken into the
dishwasher and the amount of dish‐
ware.
