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 programme with a higher temperature (see table of programmes on page 1).
- 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.

Intensive 70°C programme (if available).
