Do you have a question about the Fisher & Paykel DD24DDFTX7 and is the answer not in the manual?

This document describes a Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer™ dishwasher, designed for convenient and efficient dishwashing. It functions as a household appliance for cleaning dishes, offering a range of wash programs and user-friendly controls.

Function Description

The primary function of this device is to wash and dry dishes. It operates by circulating water and detergent to remove food soils, followed by a drying cycle. The dishwasher offers various wash programs tailored to different levels of soiling and types of dishes. These programs include:

Standard Programs:
- Heavy: Designed for heavily soiled pots, pans, and dishes, or food soils that have been left to dry overnight.
- Normal: For dishes that are quite heavily soiled.
- Fast: For lightly soiled dishes.
- Delicate: For lightly soiled and heat-sensitive crockery.
- Rinse: A program to prevent odors and soils from drying on dishes.
Eco Programs: These programs are designed to clean dishes energy-efficiently.
- Heavy Eco: For heavily soiled everyday dishes.
- Normal Eco: For normal soiled dishes, optimized for water and energy usage. This cycle is the basis for the Energy Guide.
- Fast Eco: For lightly soiled, non-greasy dishes.
- Delicate Eco: For lightly soiled, non-greasy, and heat-sensitive crockery.

The dishwasher indicates the selected program via illuminated indicators on the control panel. An "ECO" indicator glows red when an Eco program is selected, signifying energy-efficient operation.

Usage Features

The DishDrawer™ dishwasher is designed for ease of use, incorporating several features to enhance the user experience:

Independent Drawers (for double models): In double models (e.g., DD60DDFX7), each drawer has its own controls and can run independently of the other drawer, allowing for flexible loading and washing of smaller loads.
Power On/Off: The dishwasher is turned on or off by pressing the dedicated power button. Opening the drawer automatically turns the dishwasher on for 30 seconds.
Wash Program Selection: Users scroll through available wash programs using the wash program selector.
Start/Pause Function: A dedicated button allows users to start, pause, or resume a wash cycle. When pausing a wash, it's recommended to wait for three beeps before opening the drawer to prevent damage or injury.
Delay Start: This feature allows users to delay the start of a wash program by 1 to 12 hours. The delay is set by pressing and holding the Delay Start button until the light changes from blue to purple, then pressing it repeatedly for each hour of delay.
Cancel Wash/Delay Start: A dedicated button allows users to cancel a wash in progress or a set Delay Start. If water is in the drawer, it will automatically drain before the dishwasher turns off.
Keylock: This feature disables all buttons on the control panel, preventing accidental changes to settings. It is activated by pressing and holding the button until one beep sounds and the light above it glows steadily.
Childlock: This feature locks the drawer and disables all buttons, preventing unauthorized use by children. It is activated by pressing and holding the button until two beeps sound and the light above it glows steadily.
End of Wash Indication: The dishwasher beeps six times to signal the completion of a wash program. The drying fan may continue to run for a period after the wash to assist with drying.
Preference Options: Users can customize various settings to suit their preferences:
- Rinse Aid Dispense: Adjusts the amount of rinse aid dispensed. This can be reduced if there's excess foam or increased if dishes are wet or streaky.
- Water Softener: (Disabled on models without this feature) This option relates to water hardness settings.
- Open Drawer Auto Power-on: Users can turn off the automatic power-on feature that activates for 30 seconds when the drawer is opened.
- Beeps at End of Wash: The six-beep notification at the end of a wash can be turned off.
- Closed Drawer Autolock: When enabled, the drawer automatically locks 30 seconds after being closed. This is useful in boats or motor homes.
Loading Guidelines: The manual provides clear instructions for loading dishes, emphasizing the importance of scraping off large food particles, arranging dishes evenly to prevent nesting, and ensuring spray arms are not blocked. Sharp items should be placed horizontally or with points facing down.

Maintenance Features

The dishwasher incorporates features and guidelines to facilitate maintenance and ensure optimal performance:

Detergent Dispenser: The detergent dispenser should be filled with powdered detergent. Liquid detergent or tablets should not be placed in the dispenser; tablets should be placed in the cutlery basket or at the bottom of the drawer.
Rinse Aid Dispenser: The rinse aid dispenser should be refilled with liquid rinse aid when the indicator on its plug glows bright red.
Cleaning: The Keylock feature is helpful when cleaning the dishwasher as it disables all buttons.
Troubleshooting: The manual provides information on common noises during operation, which are considered normal, and offers guidance on how to change preference settings.
Service and Support: For detailed information, warranty information, service, replacement parts, or product registration, users are directed to the 'User guide' and 'Service and warranty' booklet, or to contact Fisher & Paykel customer service via toll-free numbers provided for various regions.
