Mine you just close it again. No need to hit a "carry on" button. To check
the display, simply open it a crack and close it. It is also good for
sticking an extra bit of cutlery in if the programme has already started.
The pump stops when the door is open and starts again when closed. There is
no start button.

So how do you stop it? On ours the program stays at the default
program and you hit the "Carry on/start" button before closing the
door to get it to wash. If you open the door it stops and stays
stopped unless you hit the "Carry on" button before closing the door.

Without the "Carry on" button you'd have to do something else to
select a program or say "start" before closing the door, otherwise it
would start every time you closed the door wouldn't it?
