the path of the spray
arms
Rearrange the items so that the spray arm can rotate
freely.
The filter combina-
tion in the base of
wash cabinet is not
clean or is not
correctly fitted. This
may cause the spray
arm jets to get
blocked.
Clean and/or fit the filter combination correctly. Clean
the spray arm jets. See "Cleaning the spray arms".
Cloudiness on
glassware
Combination of soft
water an too much
detergent
Use less detergent if you have soft water and select a
shortest cycle to wash the glassware and to get them
clean.
Black and gray
marks on dishes
Aluminium utensils
have rubbed against
dishes
Use a mild abrasive cleaner to estimate those marks.
Detergent left
over in cups
Dishes block
detergent cups
Re-loading the dishes properly.

drying results

drying
Improper loading
Load the dishwasher as suggested in the directions.
Too little rinse-aid
Increase the amount of rinse-aid/refill the rinse-aid
dispenser.
Dishes are removed
too soon
Do not empty your dishwasher immediately after
washing. Open the door slightly so that the steam can
escape. Begin unloading the dishwasher only once the
dishes are barely warm to the touch. Empty the low
basket first. This prevents water from dropping off
dishes in the upper basket.
Wrong program has
been selected
In short program the washing temperature is lower. This
also lowers cleaning performance. Choose a program
wit a long washing time.
Use of cutlery with a
low-quality coating
Water drainage is more difficult with these items.
Cutlery or dishes of this type are not suitable for
washing in the dishwasher.
