...There Are Problems with the Operation of the Dish-
washer.
Malfunction
The drain pump in the
dishwasher runs contin-
uously - even with the
appliance switched off.
The programme does
not start.
Rust spots are visible in
the washing compart-
ment.
There is a whistling
noise during washing.

...The Wash Result is Unsatisfactory.

The dishes are still dirty.
The wrong wash programme was selected.
The dishes were arranged in such a manner that
water has not reached all parts. The dish racks
must not be overloaded.
The filter in the base of the washing compartment
is dirty or incorrectly positioned.
Detergent was not used or too little was used.
In the case of scale deposits on the dishes: the
special salt container is empty or the water sof-
tener is incorrectly adjusted.
The drain hose is incorrectly laid.
Possible Cause
The anti-flood system has been triggered.
The door of the dishwasher is not closed
properly.
Mains plug is not plugged in.
House fuse in defective.
In the case of dishwasher models with start
delay timer:
A start delay is selected.
The washing compartment is made of cor-
rosion-resistant stainless steel. Rust spots
in the washing compartment are from parti-
cles from outside the appliance (rust parti-
cles from the water pipe, from pans, cutlery,
etc.). Remove such spots with a commer-
cially available stainless steel cleaner.
The whistling is not a cause for concern.
Close the tap,
then unplug from the mains and
contact customer service.
Shut the door.
Insert mains plug.
Replace fuse.
If the dishes are to be washed immedi-
ately, set the start delay to 0 hours
