the dishwasher A spray arm is knocking against an item
in a basket Interrupt the program and rearrange the
items which are obstructing the spray arm.
Rattling noise in the
dishwasher Items of crockery are loose in the
dishwasher. Interrupt the program and rearrange the
items of crockery.
Knocking noise in
the water pipes This may be caused by on-site installation
or the cross-section
of the piping. This has no influence on the dishwasher
function. If in doubt, contact a qualified
plumber.
The dishes are not
clean The dishes were not loaded correctly. See notes in “Loading & unloading your
dishwasher”.
The program was not powerful enough. Select a more intensive program.
Not enough detergent was dispensed Use more detergent, or change your
detergent.
Items are blocking the movement of the
spray arms. Rearrange the items so that the spray can
rotate freely.
The filter combination is not clean or is
not correctly fitted in the base of wash
cabinet.
This may cause the spray arm jets to get
blocked. Clean and fit the filter correctly. Clean the
spray arm jets.
Cloudiness on
glassware. Combination of soft water and too much
detergent. Use less detergent if you have soft water
and select a shorter cycle to wash the
glassware and to get them clean.
White spots appear
on dishes and
glasses. Hard water area
can cause lime scale deposits. Check water softener settings or fill
status of salt container.
Black or grey marks
on dishes Aluminum utensils have rubbed against
dishes Use a mild abrasive cleaner to eliminate
those marks.
Detergent left in
dispenser Dishes block detergent dispenser Re-loading the dishes properly.
The dishes are not
drying Improper loading Use gloves if detergent residue can
be found on dishes to avoid skin
irritations.
Dishes are removed too soon Do not empty your dishwasher
immediately after washing. Open the
door slightly so that the steam can come
out. Take out the dishes until the inside
temperature is safe to touch. Unload the
lower basket first to prevent the dropping
water from the upper basket.
The dishes are not
drying The wrong program has been selected. With a short program, the washing
temperature is lower, decreasing cleaning
performance. Choose a program with 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.
