Possible cause and solution
The dishes are not
clean.
The dishes were not loaded correctly.
See notes under “Loading the dishwasher”.
The program was not powerful enough.
Select a more powerful program (see “Program
overview”).
Activate the Extra clean function (see “Extra clean”
under “Settings”).
Not enough detergent was dispensed during manual
detergent dispensing.
Use more detergent or change the brand you are
using.
Items are blocking the path of the spray arms.
Carry out a rotation check and if needed rearrange
the items so that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The filter combination in the wash cabinet is not
clean or was incorrectly installed.
This may have caused the spray-arm jets to become
blocked.
Clean and/or install the filter combination correctly.
Clean the spray-arm jets if necessary (see “Clean-
ing the spray arms” under “Cleaning and care”).
There are smears on
glassware and cutlery.
There is a bluish sheen
on the surface of glass-
ware. The film can be
wiped off.

Reduce the dosage (see “Rinse aid” under “Set-
tings”).
