Possible causes
Some types of food, such as
mustard, mayonnaise, lemon,
vinegar, salt, and dressings, can
cause spots on stainless steel if
left for too long.
All stainless steel can cause
spots on silver if they come into
contact during dishwashing.
Aluminum can also cause spots
on dishes.
Incorrect rinse aid dosage
setting.
The TAB setting is activated and
all-in-one detergent with
insufficient drying effect is being
used.
Salt compartment empty.
Incorrect water softener setting.
The water softener is leaking
salt.
Too high temperature and/or too
much detergent can cause
etching on crystal.
Unfortunately, this cannot be
repaired, only prevented.
Rinse aid dosage setting too
high.
Lipstick and tea can be difficult
to wash off.
The detergent compartment was
damp when adding detergent.
The detergent compartment has
been blocked.
Action
Rinse off these types of food if
not starting the dishwasher
immediately. Use the Rinse and
hold program.
In order to avoid marks and
tarnishing, separate dishes
made from different metals,
such as silver, stainless steel,
and aluminum.
See the chapter Settings.
Switch all-in-one detergents or
deactivate the TAB setting and
fill up with salt and separate
rinse aid. See Rinse aid in the
chapter Settings.
Fill up with salt. See the chapter
Care and maintenance
instructions.
See Water hardness in the
chapter Settings.
Check that the salt compartment
lid is properly tightened.
Otherwise contact your nearest
Customer Care Center.
Wash crystal at a low
temperature and with a
conservative amount of
detergent. Contact the detergent
manufacturer.
Reduce the dosage. See the
chapter Settings. If you have
very soft water, you may want to
dilute the rinse aid 50:50 with
water.
Use a detergent with a
bleaching agent.
The detergent compartment
must be dry when adding
detergent.
Check that the dishes are not
preventing the detergent
compartment from opening.
