General problems

Problem

Possible cause and remedy

The door will not open
when knocked.

The

Knock2open

function has been permanently

disabled.



Switch the door opening mechanism on again (see
"Settings menu - Knock2open").

If the door will still not open or if there is a power cut,
the door can still be opened with the door opening
device supplied (see "Before using for the first time -
Emergency door opener").

The interior lighting
doesn't switch on when
the door is opened.

The interior lighting has been switched off
permanently.



Switch the lighting back on again (see "Settings
menu - BrilliantLight").

The following fault
message appears in the
display:



Salt reservoir lid

The salt reservoir lid has not been closed properly.



Close the salt reservoir lid.

If the salt reservoir lid has opened during a
programme:



Switch the dishwasher off and on again with the



button.



Close the salt reservoir lid.



Start the programme again.

Detergent residue is left
in the dispenser at the
end of a programme.

The dispenser was still damp when detergent was
added.



Make sure the dispenser is dry before adding
detergent.

The detergent
dispenser lid cannot be
closed properly.

Clogged detergent residue is blocking the catch.



Clean the detergent from the catch.

At the end of a
programme there is a
film of moisture on the
inside of the door and
the interior walls.

This is caused by the drying system and does not
indicate a fault. The moisture will dissipate after a
while.
