What to do
Rust stains remain on the
flatware.
This flatware is not corrosion
resistant.
Do not wash items that are
not corrosion-resistant in the
dishwasher.

adding salt. Salt has entered the
wash cycle.
After adding salt, always start the
dishwashing programme without
dishes. Do not turn on the Turbo
function (if available) after adding
salt to the dishwasher.
The salt softener lid is loose.
Check that the softener lid is
firmly secured.
Clattering in the dishwasher.

in the basket.
Interrupt the programme and
rearrange the dishes that are
obstructing the spray arm.
Rattling in the dishwasher.
The porcelain dishes are too loose
inside.
Stop the programme and
rearrange the dishes.
