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.
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.
Interrupting a program
A program is interrupted as soon as the door is opened.
If the door is closed again, the program will continue from where it was interrupted.
Water in the dishwasher is hot. Danger of scalding.
Only open the door if absolutely necessary and exercise extreme caution when doing so. Before closing the door again, leave it ajar for approx. 20 seconds. This will enable the temperature in the wash cabinet to settle. Close the door firmly until it clicks into place.
Changing a program
If the detergent dispenser flap is already open, do not change the program.
If a program has already started and you wish to change it:
Press the Start/Stop button for at least one second.
The program is canceled. The "Start/Stop" indicator light flashes.
Select and start the desired program.
