General
problems
There are
suds in the
dishwasher.
An incorrect

was used.
Use only special detergents for dishwashers to prevent the
formation of suds. If this occurs, open the dishwasher and
allow the suds to evaporate. Pour 0.4 l of cold water into
the dishwasher. Close the dishwasher to the latch and then
start the rinse cycle to drain the water.
Repeat if necessary.
The rinsing
aid has spilled out.
Always immediately clean the rinsing aid.
There are
stains inside
the
dishwasher.
You have used
a dishwashing
detergent with dyes.
Use a dishwashing detergent not containing dyes.
There is
a white fi lm
inside the
dishwasher.
The white fi lm is
caused by hard water
minerals.
Clean out the inside of the dishwasher using a damp
sponge with detergent. Use rubber gloves. To prevent the
risk of the formation of suds never use any other detergents
than those designed for use with dishwashers.

rust stains.
