Possible cause
The time display has
switched off automatically
to save energy (Standby
mode).
The dispenser was still
damp when detergent was
added.
Clogged detergent residue
is blocking the catch.
This is caused by the
drying system and does
not indicate a fault.
The filter combination in
the wash cabinet is
clogged.
The drain pump or
non-return valve may be
blocked.
The drain hose is kinked.
Remedy
Press any button (apart
from the on/off button). the
time display will light up.
Make sure the dispenser is
dry before adding
detergent.
Clean the detergent from
the catch.
The moisture will dissipate
after a short while.
Before rectifying the
problem you must:
– Switch the dishwasher off
with the Off button V.
Clean the filter combination.
See "Cleaning and care".
Clean the drain pump or the
non-return valve. See
"Maintenance".
Remove any kink from the
drain hose.
