Problem
Possible cause
What to do
Soaps in the sump.
Wrong detergent.
Use only special dishwasher
detergents to prevent foaming. If
foam forms, open the dishwasher
door and let the foam disappear.
Pour 1 litre of cold water into
the sump. Close the dishwasher
door and select any programme.
Initially, the dishwasher will drain
the water. When the draining
phase is complete, open the
door and check if the foam has
disappeared. Repeat if necessary.
Overflowing polish.
Always wipe off any excess polish
immediately.
Rusted interior of the sump
Detergent with dye may have
been used.
Make sure you use a dye-free
product.
White coating on the inner
surface.
Hard water scale.
To clean the interior, use a
sponge soaked in detergent for
dishwashers. Use rubber gloves.
Never use any other cleaner
than for dishwasher to prevent
formation of foaming or suds.
Rust stains remain on the
flatware.
This flatware is not corrosion
resistant.
Do not wash items that are
not corrosion-resistant in the
dishwasher.
The dishwasher will not start after
adding salt. Salt has entered the
wash cycle.
After adding salt, always start the
dishwashing programme without
dishes. Do not turn on the Turbo
function (if available) after adding
salt to the dishwasher.
The salt softener lid is loose.
Check that the softener lid is
firmly secured.
Clattering in the dishwasher.
The spray arm is hitting an object
in the basket.
Interrupt the programme and
rearrange the dishes that are
obstructing the spray arm.
Rattling in the dishwasher.
The porcelain dishes are too loose
inside.
Stop the programme and
rearrange the dishes.
Pounding in the water pipes.
This may be due to local
installation or pipe cross-section
size.
This has no effect on the function
of the dishwasher. If in doubt,
contact a qualified plumber.
