The spray arms do not rotate.
The dishes are not clean.
Check that the dishes are not blocking the
spray arms.
Avoid large packages.
Old detergent. Detergent is a perishable
product.
Dose according to water hardness. Far too
much or far too little detergent results in
poorer dishwashing results.
Incorrect detergent dosage.
Select a more powerful programme.
Dishwashing programme too weak.
Do not cover porcelain with large bowls or
the like. Avoid placing very tall glasses in the
corners of the baskets.
Dishes loaded incorrectly.

and pots, in such a way that the water cannot
pass from the inside out towards the dish-
washer door.

section Care and cleaning.

erly tightened. Otherwise call the service di-
vision.

a conservative amount of detergent. Contact
the detergent manufacturer.

gent can cause etching on crystal. Unfortu-
nately, this cannot be repaired, only preven-
ted.

washing for the first time and “Rinse aid” in
section Settings. If the water is very soft, you
may want to dilute the rinse aid 50:50 with
water.
Rinse aid dosage setting too high.
The dishes have a sticky white/blue film.
