Let the dishware cool.
After turning off the dishwasher open the door slightly. 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.
Turn the dishwasher off .
The dishwasher continues to use electricity until turned off with the

If the dishwasher is not used for a longer period of time,
e.g. vacationing, turn off the water supply.
Preparing your appliance for an extended vacation
If you elect to turn off the water to your home for an extended period of time, please note that this may not be enough to reduce the risk of a leak.
To be completely safe, you must turn off the water supply to each individual appliance. This means under the sink for a dishwasher, at the laundry bib for your washer, etc.
Interrupting a program
A program is interrupted as soon as the door is opened. If the door is closed, the program will continue from where it was interrupted.
Open the door with care. The water in the dishwasher is hot. Danger of scalding. Before closing the door again, leave it ajar for approx. 20 secs. This will enable the temperature in the wash cabinet to settle. Close the door firmly until it clicks into place.

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 lights.
