Problem
Knocking noise in the
water pipes
Dishes are not clean

Possible cause
This may be caused by
the on site installation or
the cross-section of the
piping.
The dishes were not
loaded correctly. Dishes
were placed inside other
pieces and water could
not reach all surfaces.
The outlet of the water
feed for the middle spray
arm was covered. Not
enough water flowed into
the middle spray arm.
The program was not
powerful enough.
Not enough detergent
was dispensed.
Tall items are blocking
the spray arms.
The spray arm jets are
blocked.
The filter combination in
the base of the wash cab-
inet is not clean or is not
correctly seated.
This may cause the spray
arms to be blocked.
The drain pump or
non-return valve may be
blocked.
Remedy
This has no influence on
dishwasher function. If in
doubt contact a plumber.

dishwasher".

serted in the rear of the

cover the water feed
tube.

program see "Program
chart".

"Operating the dish-
washer".
Rearrange items so that

rectly, Clean the spray
arms, see "Cleaning and
care".
