Error Code: SILENCE/NIGHT MODE SYMBOL Difficulty: Easy
Problem: A program that reduces the noise level of the dishwasher by using a lower spray pressure and an extended cleaning phase.
How to Fix SILENCE/NIGHT MODE SYMBOL Error (Step-by-Step)
- Locate the Silence or Night Mode symbol on your dishwasher’s control panel, often represented by a moon or a ‘shushing’ face icon.
- 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.
- To use this mode, press the power button and then select the Silence/Night Mode program.
- Load your dishwasher and add detergent as you would for a normal cycle.
- Close the door and press Start. The dishwasher will run using a lower spray pressure and extended cycle time to minimize noise.
- Note that while the cycle is quieter, it will take longer to complete than a standard program.
- 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.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
