Thermador DWHD650WFP user manual

To force drain a Thermador dishwasher, you can follow these steps:
1. Turn off the dishwasher and unplug it from the power source.
. Open the dishwasher door and locate the filter at the bottom of the tub.
3. Remove any large debris or food particles from the filter and clean it if necessary.
4. Look for the drain hose at the back of the dishwasher and disconnect it from the sink drain or garbage disposal.
5. Place a large shallow container or towel on the floor beneath the dishwasher to catch any water that may come out during the process.
6. Gently lower the loose end of the drain hose into the container or onto the towel.
7. Plug in the dishwasher and turn it on.
8. Let the dishwasher run for a few minutes to see if it drains the water properly. If it doesn't, proceed to the next step.
9. Turn off the dishwasher and unplug it again.
10. Locate the drain pump, which is typically located at the bottom of the dishwasher, near the pump motor or at the back.
11. Remove the drain pump cover or filter to access the pump impeller.
12. Use a small tool, such as a screwdriver or needle-nose pliers, to manually rotate the impeller. Make sure it moves freely and is not obstructed by any debris.
13. Once the impeller spins smoothly, replace the drain pump cover or filter.
14. Reconnect the drain hose to the sink drain or garbage disposal.
15. Plug in the dishwasher and turn it on again to check if it drains properly.
If after following these steps the dishwasher still does not drain, it is recommended to seek professional assistance or contact the Thermador customer service for further guidance.

The hand wash mode on the Thermador DWH650WFP dishwasher is a gentle cycle designed for delicate and fragile items, such as fine china, crystal, or glassware that require more careful handling and washing. This cycle uses lower water pressure and lower temperature to ensure that your delicate items are cleaned thoroughly without the risk of damage.

The blue light on the Thermador dishwasher typically blinks to indicate that the dishwasher is currently in operation. This means that a wash cycle is currently running. It is a normal functioning feature and does not indicate any problem or error with the dishwasher.
