Cause
Detergent residue is present
in the final rinse. Lid of the de-
tergent dispenser is blocked
by tableware items and will
not open fully.
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 of-
ten more severely affected.
Cutlery may also rust if
washed together with rusting
items.
Salt content in washing water
is too high.
Spray arms were blocked by
tableware so detergent was
not rinsed out.
Detergent dispenser was
damp when detergent was ad-
ded.
