not enough. Set the rinse aid dispenser to a higher
level.
• Plastic items may need to be towel dried.
• For the best drying performance activate AirDry.

combination with multi-tablets.
• The release quantity of rinse aid is too much. Ad‐
just the rinse aid level to a lower level.

Try a different brand or activate the rinse aid dis‐
penser and use rinse aid and multi-tablets together.
• This is not a defect of the appliance. it is caused by
the humidity in the air that condenses on the walls.
• Use the detergent designed specifically for dish‐
washers.

putting them in the appliance.
• There is too much salt in the water used for wash‐
ing. Refer to "The water softener".

gether. Avoid to put silver and stainless steel items
close together.
• The detergent tablet got stuck in the dispenser and
therefore was not completely washed away by wa‐
ter.
• Water cannot wash away the detergent from the
dispenser. Make sure that the spray arm is not
blocked or clogged.
• Make sure that items in the baskets do not impede
the lid of the detergent dispenser from opening.
