5. WHAT TO DO IF...
If a fault occurs,
before
contacting the After-Sales Service, make the following checks to try and remedy the
problem. Most faults can be remedied by taking the following courses of action, quickly restoring normal
appliance operation.
The appliance...
Possible causes/solutions
...is not working/will not start
-
The appliance must be switched on.
-
Check the household circuit fuse if there is no power supply.
-
The dishwasher door must be closed.
-
Check whether the “Delayed Start” option has been selected (if
available). If it has, the appliance will only start once the set time
has elapsed. If you want to start the appliance before that time,
set the start delay to “0” (RESET).

display or the Cancel/Off light flashes
alternately 6 times / 7 times or
6 times / 1 time

The water tap must be fully open during water inlet (minimum
capacity: 0.5 litres per minute).

-
The filters must not be dirty or clogged.
-
Concave items (e.g. bowls, cups) must be arranged facing
downwards in the rack.
-
The drain hose must be fitted correctly (for raised built-in
appliances, leave min. 200-400 mm from the lower edge of the
appliance - see instructions in “Maintenance and Installation”).

Cancel/Off light flashes alternately
8 times / 1 time
-
The filters must not be dirty or clogged.
-
The drain hose must not be kinked.

The retaining washer of the syphon hose connection must be
removed.
... shows other faults “F.. / E..” on the display
of the Cancel/Off light flashes X times
-
Reset the appliance (see below).
After taking the above course of action, no fault message should be displayed.
In the majority of cases the fault is thus eliminated.
RESET:
➯
Press the Cancel/Off button.
➯
Water drains automatically for up to 60 seconds with the door closed.
➯
The appliance is now ready to be restarted.
Crockery...
Possible causes/solutions
...are not perfectly clean/have food residues
-
Arrange crockery so that items do not touch each other.
Concave items (e.g. bowls, cups) must be arranged facing
downwards in the rack.
-
If necessary, use more detergent, observing the manufacturer's
indications as regards dosage. Always store detergent in a dry
place and do not store it for excessively long periods of time.
-
For heavily soiled crockery, select a wash programme with a
higher temperature (see table 1.1 on the first page).
-
If you select the “Half load/Multizone” option (if available),
remember to load
only
the upper rack or
only
the lower rack
to increase aspersion and thus obtain optimum wash results.
