How to get my Viking Dishwasher to dry dishes properly?
- J
  Jonathan SimpsonAug 15, 2025
  To ensure your dishes dry properly in your Viking Dishwasher, load the dishwasher as suggested in the manual. Also, make sure you have enough rinse agent. Increase the dosage or refill the dispenser if needed. Avoid unloading immediately after washing; instead, slightly open the door to let steam escape and wait until the dishes are hand warm. Empty the lower rack first. Using the wrong program or washing cutlery with a worn surface can also cause this issue.

What to do if Viking Dishwasher leaves calcium streaks?
- D
  douglasibarraAug 25, 2025
  To address calcium streaks or a misty appearance on your dishes from your Viking Dishwasher, increase the amount of rinse agent or refill the dispenser. Contact your water supplier to determine local water hardness in grains per gallon or ppm. If you have a model with a salt container, check that the lid is firmly closed, use a funnel to add special salt, and run the Rinse and Hold program afterward. Then, check if the lid has loosened.

Why does my Viking 100 Dishwasher smell?
- K
  Kevin ObrienAug 27, 2025
  To resolve a bad smell coming from your Viking Dishwasher, know that the smell of a new machine will disappear after a few wash cycles with detergent. Otherwise, clean all filters as described in this manual. If dirty dishes have been sitting in the dishwasher, remove coarse dirt under running water and run the Rinse and Hold program every two days without detergent. Also, regularly clean the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove food particles and other debris, using a gentle household cleaner for the outside and door seals, and rinse thoroughly.

  John CollinsAug 30, 2025
  To address rust stains or surface destruction in your Viking Dishwasher, check that the salt container lid is firmly closed, using a funnel to pour in special salt, and then run the Rinse and Hold program, checking the lid afterward. Remove food leftovers under running water and run the Rinse and Hold program every two days without detergent. Verify the machine is properly grounded. Note that low-grade rust-free steel cutlery, or dish items with rust stains are not suitable for dishwashers.

Why is my Viking Dishwasher producing foam?
- V
  Victoria JonesSep 2, 2025
  If your Viking Dishwasher is producing foam, it may be because dishes were pre-washed by hand with too much detergent; dishes do not need pre-washing, but coarse dirt can be removed with a dishcloth or under running water. Also, if rinse agent has spilled, remove it with a paper cloth or sponge. Ensure the rinse agent dispenser cover is securely closed after refilling.

Why is my Viking 100 scratching dishes?
- D
  dmitchellSep 9, 2025
  If your Viking Dishwasher is scratching dishes, it may be because aluminum items/parts are not suitable for dishwashers. Also, check that the salt container lid is closed securely, using a funnel to pour in special salt, running the Rinse and Hold program, and checking the lid afterward. Contact your water supplier to check water hardness and adjust the dishwasher settings accordingly. Store detergents properly and avoid storing them longer than two months in open packages. Do not overload the racks, and ensure glasses and dishes do not touch each other during washing.

Why does my Viking 100 Dishwasher leave milky film on glasses?
- K
  karihopkinsSep 12, 2025
  To address a milky appearance or rainbow effect on glasses (glass corrosion) from your Viking Dishwasher, use less detergent if the water hardness is low. Compare the water hardness level setting on the dishwasher against values from the local water supplier. If water hardness is low (below 7 degrees or 106 ppm), do not use salt, even if the dishwasher has a water softener.
