If the Dishwashing Results are not Satisfactory

The dishes are still dirty.

The wrong dishwashing cycle was selected.

The dishes were loaded is such a way that the dishwashing water did not reach all items. The baskets for the dishes must not be overload- ed.

The filters in the base of the washing compartment are dirty or incor- rectly positioned.

Good quality detergent was not used, or too little was used.

In the case of scale deposits on the dishes: The dishwasher salt dis- penser is empty or the water softening system has been incorrectly set.

The drain hose is incorrectly positioned.

Pollutants from the water in the dishwasher can block the jets in the spray arms. You have the option of removing the spray arms from their fixture for cleaning (see section “Care and Cleaning”).

The dishes do not dry and are not shining.

Poor quality rinse aid was used.

The rinse aid dispenser is empty.

There are smears, streaks, milky spots or a shiny bluish coating on glasses and dishes.

Lower rinse aid dosage.

There are dried water drops on the glasses and dishes.
