General dishwasher problems

Problem

Possible cause and solution

The in-operation indica-
tor light is flashing
quickly.
The alarm tone is
sounding.
The indicator light of
the selected program
and the time display will
flash.
The dishwasher does
not start or the delay-
start time stops run-
ning.

The safe mode of the dishwasher was activated.
This takes place in the following instances:

– If you do not close the door within 4 seconds of

the last press of a button at program start.

– If the door is open for longer than 4 seconds

during a program or within the delay-start time.

Press the program selection button and close the
door within 4 seconds.

The indicator lights and
the display are dark.

The dishwasher has turned off automatically to save
energy.

Turn the dishwasher on again with the 

 button.

Detergent residue is left
in the detergent com-
partment at the end of a
program.

The detergent compartment was still damp when de-
tergent was added.

Only add the detergent when the detergent com-
partment is dry.

The detergent compart-
ment lid cannot be
closed.

Residual detergent is blocking the catch.

Remove the residual detergent.

At the end of a program
there is a film of mois-
ture on the inside of the
door and possibly on
the interior cabinet
walls.

This is part of the normal function of the drying sys-
tem. The moisture will dissipate after a short time.
