Cause
Detergent substances are depos-
ited. These coatings cannot usually
be removed with chemicals (appli-
ance cleaner, ...).
If there is a "white coating" on the
container floor, the water softening
system has been set very low.
Salt dispenser cover
1Z
closed.
Only for glasses: Initial glass corro-
sion – can only apparently be wiped
off.
Detergent substances are depos-
ited. These coatings cannot usually
be removed with chemicals (appli-
ance cleaner, ...).
Hardness range incorrectly set or
water hardness greater than
8.9 mmol/l.
3 in 1 detergent or bio/eco deter-
gent not effective enough.
Underdosing of detergent.
Too weak rinse cycle selected.
Too low rinsing temperature.
Too little or unsuitable detergent.
Dishes precleaned too intensely;
sensors therefore decide on weak
wash cycle sequence. Stubborn
soiling cannot be completely
removed.
Film formation consisting of ingredi-
ents from vegetables (e.g. cabbage,
celery, potatoes, noodles, ...) or the
tap water (e.g. manganese).
Film formation caused by metallic
components on silver or aluminum
silverware.
Film formation consisting of ingredi-
ents from food soils and substances
from the tap water (limescale),
"soapy"
Plastic parts inside the appliance
may become discolored during the
service life of the dishwasher.
Too low rinsing temperature.
Dishes precleaned too intensely;
sensors therefore decide on weak
wash cycle sequence. Stubborn
soiling cannot be completely
removed.
Remedial action
Change detergent brand.
Clean appliance mechanically.
Increase softening setting and change deter-
gent if required.

Can be partly removed with machine cleaner
or by mechanical cleaning.
Check function of the water softening system
(refill with salt) or, if using combined deter-
gents (tablets), activate water softening sys-
tem.
Discoloration is normal and will not impair the
function of the dishwasher.
Select wash cycle with higher washing tem-
perature.
Do not prerinse dishes. Remove only large
