Cause
Tableware has been pre-
cleaned too intensely. The
sensors chose a weaker pro-
gramme. Stubborn soiling
cannot be entirely removed.
Glasses are not dishwasher-
proof, only suitable for dish-
washers.
Cutlery is not sufficiently
rust-resistant. Knife blades
are often more severely af-
fected.
Cutlery may also rust if
washed together with rust-
ing items.
Salt content in washing wa-
ter is too high.
Spray arms were blocked by
tableware so detergent was
not rinsed out.
Detergent dispenser was
damp when detergent was
added.
Hand washing-up liquid is
present in dispenser for
rinse aid.
Rinse aid has been spilled.
Detergent or appliance care
product used causes excess-
ive foaming.
