[. . . ] ^ Make sure that the detergent packaging is properly closed after use to avoid it getting damp and becoming lumpy. 30 Operation Switching on ^ Make sure the spray arms are not obstructed. The Start/Stop indicator light flashes and the indicator light comes on next to the last programme selected. Starting a programme ^ Select the programme required using the programme selector button. The programme duration will appear in the hours and minutes in the display. You can now select an additional function (see "Additional functions"). The Start/Stop and Wash/Rinse indicators and the indicator for the programme selected will light up. If the "2 in 1-Tab" or "3 in 1-Tab" function has been selected, the corresponding indicator will light up as well. Otherwise the programme must continue to the end so that important programme stages (e. g. reactivating the water softener) are not omitted. Selecting a programme Choose your programme according to the type of load and how dirty it is. The different programmes and their uses are described in the programme chart later on in this booklet. 31 Operation Display The duration of the programme selected appears in hours and minutes in the display before the programme begins. During the programme, the time left until the end of the programme is displayed. This is partly because of the water inlet temperature at each intake, and partly because of the amount and soiling level of the crockery. When a programme is selected for the first time, the display shows an average time for a cold water intake. The times shown in the programme chart refer to standard test loads and temperatures. Each time a programme is run, the electronic unit takes the new conditions into account, and calculates the time required. At the end of a programme A programme has finished when a "0" appears in the display and the "End" programme sequence indicator lights up. The dishwasher can now be opened and unloaded (see "Unloading 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: ^ Switch the dishwasher off with the On/Off button s. The dishwasher will continue to use electricity until the On/Off button s is switched off. whilst on holiday, the stopcock should be turned off. Programme sequence indicators After a programme has been started, the current stage of the programme is indicated by the programme sequence indicator lights. 32 Operation 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). [. . . ] Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e. g. danger of overheating). WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED 58 Plumbing Connection to the water supply , Water in the dishwasher must not be used as drinking water. ­ The dishwasher may be connected to a cold or hot water supply, max. We would only recommend connection to a hot water supply if it is economical, e. g. When connected to a hot water supply all programme stages which would otherwise be carried out with cold water will be carried out with hot water. [. . . ]
