Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause What to do
The dishes are not drying Dishes being removed too early. Do not empty your dishwasher
immediately after washing.
Open the door slightly so that
the steam can escape. Begin
unloading the dishwasher when
the dishes are warm to the
touch. Empty the lower basket
first. This prevents water from
dripping off dishes in the upper
basket.
Tea, coffee, or other stains Detergent is moist or clumping. Bleaches in detergents lose
their efficiency when stored
under unfavourable conditions.
Store detergents in a dry
place. Ensure the detergent
container is securely fastened.
Streaks on glasses or a cloudy
appearance
Too little rinse aid. Increase the amount of rinse aid
or refill the rinse aid
dispenser.
Odour Normal “new appliance” smell.
Filters are dirty.
Dirty dishes standing in the
dishwasher for several days.
The smell will disappear after a
few wash programmes.
Clean the filters following the
instructions in ‘Care and
cleaning’.
Remove heavy soiling under
running water. Close the door to
prevent odours from
developing.
Rust stains, surface damage Food leftovers are left on the
dishes for too long.
