To interrupt a washing programme

●Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point in which it was interrupted.
●Pressing the On/Off (in this case the On/Off indicator light turns off). Press the On/Off push button again; the programme will start from the point in which it was interrupted.
6.End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop.
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push button, the On/Off indicator light turns off.
Hot steam may escape from the appliance when opening the door immediately after the end of the programme, therefore, open the door carefully.
Unloading the dishwasher
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance.
Leave the dishes in the dishwasher for approx. 15 minutes, with the door ajar, after the end of programme so that they dry better and will be cooler.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.
When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.
