Question 5

Does the THOMSON TDW4714BK have a child safety feature?

Accepted Answer

The Thomson TDW4714BK is not equipped with a child safety feature or control lock. This mid-range appliance does not offer a control panel locking system, access code, or button lock.

According to the manual, the appliance can be used by children from 8 years old minimum, but only under the constant supervision of an adult. Children must not play with the appliance or access it without supervision.

Recommended safety measures:

Ensure constant supervision if a child is near the dishwasher
Prohibit access to the dishwasher when it is running, due to the risk of burns from hot steam when opening
Keep children away when the door is open, as alkaline detergents can be dangerous if they come into contact with skin or eyes
Unplug the appliance if you need to secure it completely in your absence
Place the appliance in an area of your kitchen with limited access or an adjacent door that can restrict approach

The Thomson TDW4714BK only has an anti-overflow system as an active safety feature. No automatic locking function exists on this model.

Question 6

Why is the ECO mode duration displayed on my THOMSON TDW4316SL dishwasher 4h40 instead of 280 minutes as indicated in the manual?

Accepted Answer

The difference between the displayed duration of 4h40 (4 hours and 40 minutes) and the 280 minutes mentioned in the manual for the ECO mode of your THOMSON TDW4316SL dishwasher is actually the same time expressed differently:

280 minutes is equivalent to 4 hours and 40 minutes.
The ECO mode is designed to optimize water and energy consumption, which may result in a longer duration than other cycles.

It is therefore normal for your appliance to display 4:40 as the duration of the ECO cycle, as this corresponds to the duration indicated in the manual. Furthermore, the duration may slightly vary depending on:

The temperature of the incoming water.
The level of soiling of the dishes detected by the sensors.
The additional options or settings activated.

In summary, the display of 4h40 is correct and corresponds to the standard duration of the ECO mode on this model.

Question 7

How to use the washing cycle on the THOMSON THBIDW45DFULLSLID dishwasher?

Accepted Answer

To use the washing cycle on your THOMSON THBIDW45DFULLSLID dishwasher, follow these simple steps:

1. Loading the dishes

Place the dishes in the baskets, ensuring that the spray arms are not blocked.
Arrange plates, glasses, and cutlery in the designated spots to ensure effective washing.

2. Adding detergent

Open the detergent compartment located inside the door.
Add the recommended amount of dishwasher detergent according to the level of soiling.
Carefully close the compartment.

3. Selecting the washing program

Use the control panel to choose the cycle suitable for your dishes (e.g., eco, intensive, quick).
Consider the type and degree of soiling to select the most appropriate program.

4. Additional options

If your model allows, you can activate options such as intensive drying or an extra rinse.

5. Starting the cycle

Close the dishwasher door properly.
Press the start button to begin the selected cycle.

6. End of cycle and unloading

At the end of the cycle, wait a few minutes before opening the door to allow steam to escape and avoid burns.
Unload the dishes starting from the bottom basket to prevent water from dripping onto the clean dishes.

By following these steps, you will optimize the cleaning and lifespan of your THOMSON THBIDW45DFULLSLID dishwasher.

Question 8

What does error code E4 mean on the THOMSON TDW1444BWH dishwasher and how can it be resolved?

Accepted Answer

The error code E4 on the THOMSON TDW1444BWH dishwasher indicates an overflow. This means that some parts of the appliance are leaking or that the drainage system is not properly evacuating water during the wash cycle.

If you see this error code and water is overflowing, immediately turn off the water supply before contacting a repair technician. This action is critical to avoid significant water damage.

Before contacting customer service, check the following points: ensure that the drainage hose is not bent, crushed, or blocked. The hose must be inserted into a drainage column or an appropriate drainage pipe (minimum diameter 4 cm) and must be securely fixed against the wall. The height of the drainage hose must be less than 1,000 mm. Also, check that your sink does not have a drainage issue, as a clogged sink can prevent the dishwasher from draining.

Also, clean the filter located at the bottom of the tub by removing it and rinsing it under running water to eliminate food residues or debris that may hinder proper water flow.

If after these checks the E4 code persists, it is likely that an internal part is leaking (seal, internal hose, or drain pump) or that the drainage system is blocked internally. In this case, contact FNAC DARTY customer service for professional repair, as the appliance should not be repaired by yourself. Remember that if water has accumulated in the base tray, remove it before restarting the dishwasher.

Question 9

Does the THOMSON TDW1444BWH dishwasher have a pre-wash program?

Accepted Answer

The THOMSON TDW1444BWH dishwasher does not offer a separate program called “Pre-wash”, but automatic pre-wash is integrated into several of its main programs, not all of them.

According to the official documentation, the programs that have an automatic pre-wash phase are:

AUTO: pre-wash at 45°C followed by a wash at 55-65°C, with rinses and drying. Automatically adapts to the degree of soiling
Intensive: pre-wash followed by a wash at 60°C, ideal for very dirty dishes with dried food residues
Universal: pre-wash then wash at 60°C, standard program for normally dirty dishes
Glasses: pre-wash followed by a gentle wash at 45°C, protects glasses and delicate items

On the other hand, the ECO, Express, and 90 minutes programs do not include a pre-wash phase. The ECO program starts directly with washing at 50°C to optimize water and energy consumption.

The automatic pre-wash is generally sufficient to remove food residues and coarse dirt. Manual pre-rinsing of dishes is not recommended, as it unnecessarily increases water and energy consumption.

To benefit from the automatic pre-wash, simply start one of the compatible programs without any special handling. The cycle runs completely from the initial rinse to the final drying.
