- Check
- Is the drain hose kinked?

removed if connected to a sink trap (this is the most common
fault when installing a dishwasher).

- Has the correct detergent been used? (Use only Dishwasher
powder or tablets).
- Have you spilt rinse aid when filling the rinse aid compartment? If
yes, this will clear on the next cycle.
- Has there been a power failure, check other appliances?
- Your dishwasher will stop and start throughout the wash
programme. This is normal.
- Has the water supply been interrupted?
- Spray arm knocking against dishes (See "Loading Your
Dishwasher" Section of the instruction book).
- Crockery has not been stacked correctly.
- This is caused by the way you have the water pipes laid and has no
effect upon the dishwasher functions.
- If your cold water mains pressure is set too high, the noise level will
be increased.
