Frequently asked questions
Possible cause and solution
Natural dyes, e.g., from carrots, tomatoes, or
ketchup may be the cause. The amount of detergent
used or its bleaching effect was not sufficient to deal
with natural dyes.
 Use more detergent (see "Detergent").
Parts that are already discolored will not revert to
their original color.

 Increase the dosage (see "Rinse aid" under "Set-
tings").
The salt reservoir is empty.
 Fill the salt reservoir (see "Reactivation salt" under
"Before using for the first time").
The salt-reservoir cap has not been screwed on cor-
rectly.
 Replace it, making sure that it screws back on cor-
rectly.
Unsuitable combination detergents were used.
 Switch to another detergent. If using detergent
tabs or powder detergent, do not choose combi-
nation products and ensure you refill the reactiva-
tion salt and rinse aid.
The water softener is programmed to too low a water
hardness level.
 Program the water softener to a higher water hard-
ness level (see "Water hardness" under "Set-
tings").

dispensing (if available) (see "Settings – AutoDos").
