General
problems
There are
suds in the
dishwash-
er.
An incorrect dishwashing
detergent 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.
Rinse aid has spilled out.
Always immediately clean the rinsing aid.
There are
stains
inside the
dishwasher.
You used a dishwashing
detergent with dyes.
Use a dishwashing detergent not containing dyes.
There is a
white
deposit
inside the
dishwasher
The white fi lm is caused
by the minerals in hard
water.
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.
There are
rust stains
on the
cutlery.
The aff ected items are not
resistant to corrosion.
After refi lling the salt you
did not start any program.

washing cycle.
After adding salt always run a quick wash without dishes and
without the Turbo function activated (if available).

This may be caused by
