Problem Possible cause and remedy
Dishes, cutlery and
glasses are not dry or
are flecked.
The amount of rinse aid may be insufficient, or the
rinse aid reservoir is empty.
Replenish the rinse aid, increase the dosage or
change the brand of rinse aid used (see "Adding
rinse aid").
Crockery was taken out of the cabinet too soon.
Leave it in for longer (see "Operation").
White residue is visible
on the dishware.
Clouding occurs on
glassware and cutlery;
film can be wiped off.
Not enough rinse aid was added.
Increase the dosage (see "Settings menu, Rinse
aid").
There is no dishwasher salt in the salt reservoir.
Fill the salt reservoir (see "Filling the salt
reservoir").
The water softener is programmed to a setting which
is too low for the water hardness level.
Programme the water softener to the correct value
(see "Settings, Water hardness").
Glassware has a brown
or blue tinge, and film
cannot be wiped off.
This is caused by ingredients in the cleaning agent.
Change your detergent.
Glassware is dull and
discoloured; film cannot
be wiped off.
The glassware is not dishwasher-proof. The surfaces
are affected.
Purchase glassware which is dishwasher-proof.
Tea or lipstick stains
have not been
completely removed.
The wash temperature of the selected programme
was too low.
Select a programme with a higher wash
temperature.
The bleaching effect of the detergent used is too low.
Change your detergent.
Plastic items are
discoloured.
Natural dyes, e.g. from carrots or tomatoes may be
the cause. The amount of detergent used or its
bleaching effect was not sufficient to deal with natural
dyes.
Use more cleaning agent (see "Operation, Adding
detergent").
Discoloured plastic items will not regain their original
colour.
