Interrupting a program
A program which is already running should
only be interrupted if strictly necessary, e.g.,
if the wash items are moving significantly.
 Danger of scalding, burning, and
chemical burns
The wash 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 program 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 wash items at your own
risk.
 Open the door (see “Opening and closing
the door”).
If the temperature in the wash cabinet is
more than 153°F (67°C), the following mes-
sage alerts you to possible dangers when
opening the door.


to continue.
 Press the Startbutton to continue the pro-

The program automatically continues from
the point at which the interruption occurred.

If the temperature inside the wash cabinet is
more than 120°F (50°C) at this point, the
pressure is equalized first. Then the program
continues.
