Why my Asko DWCBI231 W/1 Dishwasher does not start?
- K
  Kenneth ColonAug 18, 2025
  If your Asko dishwasher isn't starting, there are several things you can check: * Ensure you press and hold the Start/Stop button until the display indicates the program has started and prompts you to close the door. * Verify that the door is completely closed. * If you opened the dishwasher mid-cycle to add dishes, close the door and allow the dishwasher to resume the program. * Check your fuse/circuit breaker, the wall socket connection, and the water tap to ensure they are all functioning correctly. * Look for any signs of overflow or leaks. * If you hear a continuous whirring sound from the drainage pump that doesn't stop even when the power is off, turn off the water tap, unplug the dishwasher, and contact customer service.

  If your Asko dishwasher isn't drying dishes adequately, consider the following: * Make sure the dishwasher is fully loaded. * Check and replenish the rinse aid, or increase the dosage if it's set too low. You can find instructions in the Settings chapter. * If using all-in-one detergents with the TAB setting activated, try switching to separate detergents, or deactivate the TAB setting and add salt and rinse aid separately. * After the program finishes, slightly open the door to help with drying.

Why Asko Dishwasher buttons do not react?
- M
  meyerdanielAug 30, 2025
  If your Asko dishwasher buttons aren't responding, here's what you can do: * Wait a moment and try pressing the buttons again. Sometimes, pressing them too soon after opening the door can cause a delay. * Check if the child lock (button lock) is activated. Refer to the Settings chapter for instructions on deactivating it. * Make sure the door is open, as the buttons only work when the door is open. * Clean the buttons with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt.

Why is there detergent residue in my Asko Dishwasher detergent compartment?
- E
  Elizabeth CarneySep 4, 2025
  If you find detergent residue in the detergent compartment of your Asko dishwasher after washing, it could be due to: * A damp detergent compartment when adding detergent. Ensure the compartment is dry before adding detergent. * The detergent compartment being blocked. Check that dishes aren't preventing the detergent compartment from opening.

Why do the dishes have a sticky white/blue film after using my Asko Dishwasher?
- R
  Robert WebbSep 7, 2025
  If you notice a sticky white or blue film on your dishes after washing in your Asko dishwasher, it's likely due to a rinse aid dosage setting that is too high. Reduce the dosage. See the chapter Settings. If you have very soft water, you may want to dilute the rinse aid 50:50 with water.

Why is my Asko Dishwasher making a rattling sound?

  Jamie AlexanderSep 12, 2025
  If your Asko dishwasher is making a rattling sound during operation, it's likely that the dishes are not correctly placed or the spray arms are not rotating. Check that the dishes are placed securely and manually spin the spray arms to ensure they can rotate freely.
