Possible cause and solution
• For the best drying performance activate AirDry.
• The programme does not have a drying phase or
has a drying phase with low temperature.
• The rinse aid dispenser is empty.
• The quality of the rinse aid can be the cause.
• The quality of the multi-tablets can be the cause.
Try a different brand or activate the rinse aid dis‐
penser and use rinse aid and multi-tablets together.
• This is not a defect of the appliance. it is caused by
the humidity in the air that condenses on the walls.
• Use the detergent for dishwashers only.
• There is a leak in the rinse aid dispenser. Contact
an Authorised Service Centre.
• There is too much salt in the water used for wash‐
ing. Refer to "The water softener".
• Silver and stainless steel cutlery were placed to‐
gether. Avoid to put silver and stainless steel items
close together.
• The detergent tablet got stuck in the dispenser and
therefore was not completely washed away by wa‐
ter.
• Water cannot wash away the detergent from the
dispenser. Make sure that the spray arm is not
blocked or clogged.
• Make sure that items in the baskets do not impede
the lid of the detergent dispenser from opening.
• The level of salt is low, check the refill indicator.
• The cap of the salt container is loose.
• Your tap water is hard. Refer to "The water soft‐
ener".
• Even using multi-functional tabs use salt and set
regeneration of the water softener. Refer to "The
water softener".
• If lime scale deposits still remain, clean the appli‐
ance with appliance cleaners which are particularly
suitable for this purpose.
• Try different detergent.
• Contact the detergent manufacturer.
• Make sure that only dishwasher-safe items are
washed in the appliance.
• Load and unload the basket carefully. Refer to bas‐
ket loading leaflet.
