Troubleshooting

Problem
The dishes are not clean.
Spots or films on the dishes.
The dishes have a sticky white/blue
film.
Spots on stainless steel or silver.
Spots left after washing.
Rattling sound when dishwashing.
Possible causes
The spray arms do not rotate.
Old detergent. Detergent is a perish-
able product.
Incorrect detergent dosage.
Dishwashing program too weak.
Dishes loaded incorrectly.
Glasses and cups have toppled over
during the program.
The filter is not correctly fitted.
Incorrect rinse aid dosage setting.
Too high temperature and/or too much
detergent can cause etching on crys-
tal. Unfortunately, this cannot be re-
paired, only prevented.
Rinse aid dosage setting too high.
Some foodstuffs, such as mustard,
mayonnaise, lemon, vinegar, salt and
dressings, can cause spots on stain-
less steel if left for too long.
All stainless steel can cause spots on
silver if they come into contact during
dishwashing. Aluminium can also
cause spots on dishes.
Lipstick and tea can be difficult to wash
off.
The dishes are not correctly placed or
the spray arms are not rotating.
Action
Remove the arms and clean them.
Check that the dishes are not blocking
the spray arms.
Avoid large packages.
Dose according to water hardness. Far
too much or far too little detergent re-
sults in poorer dishwashing results.
Select a higher temperature or a more
powerful program.
Do not cover porcelain with large
bowls or the like. Avoid placing very
tall glasses in the corners of the bas-
kets.
Place dishes to sit steady.
Screw the filter firmly into place. See
the section Care and cleaning.
See the sections Rinse aid and Set-
tings.
Wash crystal at a low temperature and
with a conservative amount of deter-
gent. Contact the detergent manufac-
turer.
Reduce the amount. See the sections
Rinse aid and Settings. If you have
very soft water, you may want to dilute
the rinse aid 50:50 with water.
Rinse off these types of foodstuffs if
not starting the dishwasher immediate-
ly. Why not use the Rinse & Hold pro-
gram.
Silver and stainless steel items should
not come into contact during dishwash-
ing.
Use a detergent with a bleaching
agent.
Check that the dishes are placed se-
curely. Spin the spray arms to make
sure they can rotate.
