Fault

Cause

troubleshooting

Coloured deposits (yellow,
orange, brown) that are easy
to remove are present inside
the appliance (mainly at the
bottom).

The formation of films is due
to ingredients of food rem-
nants and tap water (limes-
cale) "soaplike".

1.

Check the setting of the water
softening system.

2.

Add special salt.

ance may become discol-
oured during the life of the

Tableware has been pre-
cleaned too intensely. The
sensors chose a weaker pro-
gramme. Stubborn soiling
cannot be entirely removed.

present on glasses, glass-
ware with a metallic appear-
ance and cutlery.

setting.

ded.

"Adding rinse aid", Page 27

Detergent residue is present
in the final rinse. Lid of the
detergent dispenser is
blocked by tableware items
and will not open fully.

tableware so the tab collecting tray
is not obstructed by tableware. 

→ 

"Arrange tableware", Page 31

grance dispensers in the tablet col-
lecting tray.
