How to Fix SILENCE/NIGHT MODE SYMBOL Error (Step-by-Step)

  1. Locate the Silence or Night Mode symbol on your dishwasher’s control panel, often represented by a moon or a ‘shushing’ face icon.
  2. Recognize this as a selectable wash program designed to operate at a lower noise level, ideal for running at night or in open-plan living spaces.
  3. To use this mode, press the power button and then select the Silence/Night Mode program.
  4. Load your dishwasher and add detergent as you would for a normal cycle.
  5. Close the door and press Start. The dishwasher will run using a lower spray pressure and extended cycle time to minimize noise.
  6. Note that while the cycle is quieter, it will take longer to complete than a standard program.
  7. To return to normal operation for your next load, simply select a different wash program (e.g., Auto, Normal) instead of the Silence/Night Mode.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
