For more info

The dishwasher will beep six times to indicate the end of the wash program.

You may notice the following noises at the end of the wash. These are all part of normal operation:

In double models, both drawers may be draining simultaneously.
The drying fan may continue to run after a wash program has finished for a set time or until the drawer is opened. The fan
assists with drying and uses negligible amounts of energy.

For best drying results, we recommend unloading the dishes once they have cooled.

You can change the setting of these options to suit your preferences or circumstances. We recommend selecting the most suitable
settings before you start using your dishwasher.

A neatly arranged load with evenly
spaced dishes helps wash performance.

Sharp or pointed items must be placed
horizontally or with sharp edges/points
facing down to avoid risk of injury.

Overcrowding reduces wash
performance.

Protruding items will stop the
internal lid of the drawer from
sealing properly, which could result
in a service call.

Ensure there is enough space between
plates. Mix spoons, knives and forks
within the cutlery basket to prevent
them from nesting.

If plates and cutlery are nesting,
they are less likely to be cleaned
well.

Ensure that water reaches all items on
the adjustable racks.

Dishware is blocking water from
reaching items on the adjustable
racks.
