Why does my Blomberg Washer not rinse well?

I
ieatonSep 13, 2025
Your Blomberg Washer might not rinse well due to: * Inappropriate detergent amount, brand, or storage conditions; use a detergent appropriate for washing machine and laundry. Keep detergents closed in an environment free of humidity and do not expose them to excessive temperatures. * Detergent in the wrong compartment; If detergent is put in the prewash compartment although prewash cycle is not selected, the product can take this detergent during rinsing or softener step. Put the detergent in the correct compartment. * A clogged pump filter; check the filter. * A folded drain hose; check the drain hose.
