As the program runs, the LED displays the remaining time. If the time exceeds an hour, the display alternates between the hour and minutes remaining. The hour is designated by an h (e. g. , 1h). The program times may not always be the same because of variations in the household hot water temperature. The dishwasher heats the water to the proper temperature for the program selected, so if the temperature of the water entering your dishwasher is too low, the dishwasher will run longer because it takes longer to heat the water. Raising your water heater setting could help to shorten the cycle times. If this doesn't help, call the ASKO Advisory Center. Fault Codes The LED window displays three fault codes, as illustrated below. Indicates high water level in the machine. Indicates a thermistor fault (heater control). This simply means the door isn't closed completely. AMOUNT OF DISHWASHING DETERGENT TO USE We recommend that you use only unscented, granular automatic dishwashing detergent. Generally, one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items, however, may need more detergent. Also, the amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in water hardness. [. . . ] You may be using too much detergent or washing your dishes in water that is too hot. Try using less detergent and use the Normal or Quick wash programs. It's normal to have some water left in the sump area near the drain. [. . . ]
