Crockery and cutlery... Possible causes... Solutions...
...are not perfectly clean/have food
residues
• Too little space between dishes
(incorrect arrangement of the
concave items in the rack).
• Arrange crockery so that items do
not touch each other. Concave
items (e.g. bowls, cups) must be
arranged facing downwards in the
rack.
• Too little detergent; detergent too
old or incorrectly stored.
• If necessary, use more detergent,
observing the manufacturer’s
indications as regards dosage.
Always store detergent in a dry
place and do not store it for
excessively long periods of time.
• Temperature not high enough for
heavily soiled crockery
• For heavily soiled crockery, select a
wash program with a higher
temperature (see table of
programs).
• Loading of the dishwasher using
lower and upper rack at the same
time with “Half load/Multizone”
option.
• If you select the “Half
load/Multizone” option (if available),
remember to load only the upper
rack or only the lower rack to
increase washing power and thus
obtain optimum wash results.
• Frequent use of Eco 50°C. • In the event of frequent use of the
Eco 50°C program (if available),
from time to time select the
Intensive 65°C program (if
available).
• Clogged spray arms, dirty filters or
not fitted correctly
• The spray arms must not be
clogged, the filters must not be
dirty and must be fitted correctly
(see “Maintenance and care“).
• Spray arms stuck impeded by
crockery or cutlery.
• The spray arms must be able to
turn freely and must not be
impeded by crockery or cutlery.
...salt indicator lit • Use tablets for soft water. • Set “Tablet” option; if this option is
not available, it is normal for the
salt indicator to light up.
...have deposits: regeneration salt
residue
• Water too hard. • In areas with very hard water, more
regeneration salt needs to be added
(see “How to set water hardness”).
• Salt reservoir cap open. • Close the salt reservoir cap
properly.
• Not enough rinse aid. • If you use a combined action
detergent, try adding more rinse
aid.
