the water pipes.
This may be caused by on-
site installation or the cross-
section of the piping.
This has no influence on dishwasher
function. If in doubt, contact the
Customer Care Advice Line.
Unsatisfactory washing result
The dishes were not loaded
correctly.
See the “Loading the dishwasher”
section.
The program was not
powerful enough.
Select a more intensive cycle.
Not enough detergent was
dispensed.
Use more detergent or change your
detergent.
Items are blocking the path
of the spray arm.
Rearrange the items so that the spray
arm can rotate freely.
The dishes are
not clean.
The filter combination in the
base of the wash cabinet is
not clean or is not correctly
fitted. This may cause the
spray arm jets to get
blocked.
Clean and / or fit the filter combination
correctly. Clean the spray arm jets. See
“Cleaning the spray arm” section.
Cloudiness on
glassware.
Combination of soft water
and too much detergent.
Use less detergent if you have soft
water and select a shorter cycle to wash
the glassware and to get them clean.
Black or grey
marks on dishes.
Aluminium utensils have
rubbed against dishes.
Use a mild abrasive cleaner to eliminate
the marks.
Detergent left in
dispenser cups.
Dishes blocking detergent
cups.
Re-load the dishes properly.
Unsatisfactory drying result
Improper loading.
Load the dishwasher as suggested in
the directions.
Too little rinse-aid.
Increase the amount of rinse-aid or refill
the rinse-aid dispenser.
Dishes are removed too
soon.
Do not empty the dishwasher
immediately after washing. Open the
door slightly so that the steam can
escape. Begin unloading the dishwasher
only once the dishes are barely warm to
the touch.
Wrong program selection.
In short programs the washing
temperature is lower. This also lowers
cleaning performance. Choose a
program with a long washing time.
The dishes are
not drying.
Using cutlery with a low-
quality coating.
Water drainage is more difficult with
these items. Cutlery or dishes of this
type are not suitable for washing in the
dishwasher.
