  If your Atag Dishwasher isn't starting, make sure the Start/Stop button is pressed and held until the display shows the door open symbol, indicating it's ready. Also, check that the door is fully closed, the plug is correctly inserted into the wall socket, the water tap is turned on, and no fuses or circuit breakers have tripped. Ensure the Delayed start option hasn't been accidentally selected. In case of overflow/leaks, check for those issues. If you hear a continuous whirring sound (drainage pump) that doesn't stop when cutting power, turn off the water tap, pull out the plug, and call for service.

How to fix an Atag VA68211TT Dishwasher that's not cleaning dishes properly?
- K
  Kayla ThompsonAug 20, 2025
  If your Atag Dishwasher leaves dishes unclean, start by removing and cleaning the spray arms to ensure they rotate freely. Check that dishes aren't blocking the spray arms. Be mindful of your detergent; old detergent can be less effective, so avoid large packages. Ensure you're using the correct detergent dosage based on your water hardness — too much or too little can impact results. Select a higher temperature or a more powerful wash program. Load dishes correctly, avoiding overcrowding or covering items, and ensure glasses and cups are stable. Finally, make sure the filter is correctly fitted and screwed firmly into place.

Why does my Atag VA68211TT leave spots or films on the dishes?
- B
  Brandon GuzmanAug 23, 2025
  To address spots or films on dishes from your Atag Dishwasher, first check that the salt compartment lid is properly tightened to prevent leaks. Adjust the water softener setting as needed. Ensure the salt compartment is filled with salt. If using 3-in-1 detergent, deactivate the TAB setting and add salt and rinse aid separately. Also, be cautious of high temperatures and excessive detergent with crystal, washing crystal at a low temperature and with a conservative amount of detergent.

  To resolve the issue of dishes not drying well enough in your Atag Dishwasher, try activating the Long dry option. Ensure the dishwasher is fully loaded. Check and top up the rinse aid, or increase its dosage. If you're using 3-in-1 detergent, try inactivating the TAB setting and adding salt and rinse aid separately. Once the program has finished, open the door a little.

  Martin SmithAug 28, 2025
  If your Atag Dishwasher has water remaining after a cycle, start by checking the drainage hose for blockages and kinks, ensuring it's properly connected to the sink unit's water trap and that the pipe's inner diameter is at least 14 mm. Clean the coarse and fine filters. Also, clear any debris from the drainage pump.

Why are the touch buttons on my Atag VA68211TT Dishwasher not reacting?
- S
  Samuel LucasSep 3, 2025
  If your Atag Dishwasher touch buttons aren't responding, wait a moment before pressing them after opening the door. Clean the buttons with a dry or slightly damp cloth. If a specific symbol appears, ensure the door is fully open until the display lights up, or close it, wait 30 seconds, and reopen. Check if the child lock (button lock) is activated.

  Kyle SchwartzSep 5, 2025
  To eliminate bad odors in your Atag Dishwasher, clean around the seals and in corners with a washing-up brush and a low-foaming cleaner. If you frequently use low-temperature programs, run a higher temperature program about once a month.

Why does my Atag Dishwasher leave a sticky white/blue film on the dishes?
- H

  To address a sticky white or blue film on dishes from your Atag Dishwasher, reduce the rinse aid dosage. If you have very soft water, consider diluting the rinse aid 50:50 with water.

  To prevent spots on stainless steel or silver in your Atag Dishwasher, rinse off foods like mustard, mayonnaise, lemon, vinegar, salt, and dressings from your dishes if you're not starting the dishwasher immediately.
