What to do if...
15
Crockery and cutlery...
Possible causes/solutions
...are not perfectly
clean/have food
residues
- Arrange crockery so that items do not touch each other. Concave items (e.g.
bowls, cups) must be arranged facing downwards in the rack.
- If necessary, use more detergent, observing the manufacturer's indications as
regards dosage. Always store detergent in a dry place and do not store it for
excessively long periods of time.
- For heavily soiled crockery, select a wash programme with a higher
temperature (see table 1.1 on page 5).
- If you select the "Half load/Multizone" function (if available), remember to load
only the upper rack or only the lower rack to increase washing power and
thus obtain optimum wash results.
- In the event of frequent use of the Eco programme 50°C (if available), from
time to time select the intensive 70°C programme (if available).
- The spray arms must not be clogged, the filters must not be dirty and must be
fitted correctly (see the instructions in "Maintenance and installation").
- The spray arms must be able to turn freely and must not be impeded by
crockery or cutlery.
...have deposits:
- regeneration salt
residue
- In areas with very hard water, more regeneration salt needs to be added (see
page 9, "How to check/fill/adjust salt").
- Close the salt container lid properly.
- If you use a combined action detergent which includes salt, do not add any
additional regeneration salt.
- rust marks
- Salty or acidic food residues can cause rust marks even on stainless steel
cutlery. To avoid this, always use the pre-wash programme if the dishes are to
be washed later.
- other marks
- In the presence of marks, increase the rinse aid dosage (see page 9, "How to
check/fill/adjust rinse aid").
- If you use a combined action detergent, possibly add more rinse aid.
- streaks
- In the presence of streaks, reduce the rinse aid dosage (page 9, "How to
check/fill/adjust rinse aid"). If you use a combined action detergent which
includes rinse aid, do not add any additional rinse aid.
- suds
- Only use the amount of detergent/rinse aid required, since excessive amounts
can lead to excess suds.
- opaque glasses, etc.
- Only use dishwasher-proof crockery and dishes.
...have discoloured
plastic parts
Tomato sauce, for example, can lead to discolouring of plastic parts.
Powder detergent is recommended as it allows slightly higher doses to be used
for improved whitening. Programmes with higher wash temperatures should be
used..
...are not dry
- Arrange crockery so that water does not collect in cavities.
- Increase the dosage of rinse aid (see page 9, "How to check/fill/ adjust rinse aid").
- Dishes dry better if the dishwasher door is left open a little before unloading;
this allows the steam to dissipate.
- With the Rapid 40°C programme (if available), dishes may not be perfectly dry
since this is a short programme. If necessary, select a longer programme.
