N.B.: Should any of the situations occur and should the machine give a bad wash performance, it is necessary to remove the deposits from the dishes by hand since the final drying cycle hardens the deposits which a second wash in the machine would not be able to remove.

If the malfunction continues contact a Service Centre quoting the serial number of the dishwasher. This is found on the plaque on the inside of the dishwasher door at the top or on the guarantee.

This information will make it possible to take more effective action more quickly.
