Miele PFD 400 - Programme Completion and Interruption

Operation
45
End of a programme
After a programme has ended normally, the
LED of the Start/Stopbutton will go out and
the following will appear on the display.

In addition to this, a buzzer will sound for
approx. 3seconds (factory default setting).
The buzzer is repeated three times every
30seconds. To change buzzer settings, see
“Volume”.
 Tap to acknowledge the display.
If system messages are present, they are
displayed afterwards, e.g. if the salt con-
tainer level or the level of the liquid process
chemicals containers was low during the
programme, or when the next service is
due. Every message needs to be acknow-
ledged individually by pressing OK.
Switching off
 Press the button until the display turns
off.
Unloading the crockery
Crockery tends to break and chip more eas-
ily when it is hot. Allow the items to cool un-
til they are comfortable enough to handle
before unloading them from the dishwasher.
If you open the door fully after switching off,
the crockery will cool much faster.
Unload the lower basket first, and then the
upper basket. This will prevent water drops
from the upper basket from falling onto the
crockery in the lower basket.
Interrupting a programme
A programme which is already running
should only be interrupted if strictly neces-
sary, e.g. if the load items are moving signi-
ficantly.
 Danger of scalding, burning and
chemical burns
The load items, the load carrier and the
interior of the wash cabinet may be very
hot.
Steam may also escape when the door is
opened. Depending on the wash phase,
process chemicals may be dissolved
within the steam, which can cause irrita-
tion and burns in the eyes and respiratory
tract.
A programme should only be interrupted
if strictly necessary.
Open the door slowly and carefully and
avoid contact with the steam that may es-
cape. Touch the load items at your own
risk.
 Open the door.
 Rearrange the load items so that they are
stable.
 Close the door again to continue the pro-
gramme.
The programme automatically continues
from the point at which the interruption oc-
curred.
