EN 20
Potential causes
The rinse agent reservoir is empty.
Incorrect cycle.
Baskets are incorrectly loaded.
Extremely hard water. Incoming water
temperature is low. The dishwasher is
overloaded.
Baskets are incorrectly loaded. Old or damp
detergent. Rinse agent reservoir is empty.
Incorrect detergent dosage.
Combination of soft water and too much
detergent.
Traces of iron in the water may cause spotting
to the tub of the dishwasher.
Hard water.
The detergent compartment is blocked by
dishes.
When opening the door.
Aluminium cooking utensils have scraped the
dishes.
This is normal.
Rinse agent reservoir too full or rinse agent is
leaking.
The dishwasher is not standing level.
Solution
Ensure that the rinse agent reservoir is filled.
Select a higher cycle.
Make sure that the detergent compartment
and spray arms are not obstructed by large
dishes/pans.
To remove spotting from glass objects:
Remove all metal objects from the dishwasher.
Use the prescribed quantity of detergent.
Select the longest cycle. Allow the dishwasher
to run for approximately 18 to 22 minutes. It
should by then have reached the main wash
cycle. Open the door carefully and pour 2 cups
of white vinegar into the base. Close the door
and allow the dishwasher to complete its
cycle. If vinegar does not work: Repeat the
above steps, but use a quarter cup (60 ml) of
citric acid crystals in place of white vinegar.
Use less detergent and choose the glass cycle,
which you can use to clean glassware.
Contact a manufacturer of water softeners for
a special filter.
Increase salt consumption setting
Load the baskets so that the dishes no longer
block the detergent compartment.
Clean the upper spray arm.
This is possible at the end of the cycle.
Aluminium can tarnish.
A small amount of water around the drain
on the rear of the tub base keeps the seal
flexible.
Take care not to overfill the rinse agent
reservoir. Spilled rinse agent can lead to foam/
flooding. Wipe up spilled rinse agent with a
damp cloth.
Adjust the dishwasher so that it is standing
level.
