Dishwasher
Not sure how/why some of the bulbs burned through the plastic buttons...
Only visible by opening the dishwasher.
These icons are pretty incomprehensible to me, but then I don't drink coffee. (Apologies for the lousy photo.)
I think I understand these icons...
Love the instructions with cute icons.
Interesting there needs to be an "available" light, that the control panel isn't just unlit.
Also makes tea and hot chocolate ("Choco").
It's complicated to operate a stove these days.
The space makes it impossible to have much more than buttons.
Wow, so complicated.
It's funny that most washing machines don't have a start button (you just pull out the main dial), yet must dryers do, even though they also frequently have one big dial that could be pulled in a similar way.
Icons instead of clarity.
One simple control is sometimes the best. No other controls necessary for this.
