Problem
Cause and remedy
The indicator lights and
the display are dark.
The display has switched off automatically to save
energy.
Switch the dishwasher on again with the
but-
ton.
The interior lighting
does not come on when
the door is opened.

Detergent residue is left
in the dispenser at the
end of a programme.
The dispenser was still damp when detergent was ad-
ded.
Make sure the dispenser is dry before adding de-
tergent.
The detergent dis-
penser lid cannot be
closed properly.
Residual detergent is blocking the catch.
Remove the detergent.
At the end of a pro-
gramme there is a film
of moisture on the in-
side of the door and the
interior cabinet walls.
This is not a fault.
It is caused by the drying system.
The moisture will dissipate after a short while.

wash cabinet at the end
of a programme.
Before rectifying the problem:
Switch the dishwasher off with the
button.
