Problem
The crockery is not dry
or cutlery and glasses
are flecked.
Glassware has a brown
or blue tinge. The film
cannot be wiped off.
Glassware is dull and
discoloured. The film
cannot be wiped off.
Tea or lipstick stains
have not been com-
pletely removed.
Plastic items are discol-
oured.
Cause and remedy
The rinse aid dosage is set too low or the rinse aid
reservoir is empty.
 Replenish the rinse aid, increase the dosage, or
change the brand of rinse aid (see "Using for the
first time - Rinse aid").
The crockery was taken out of the wash cabinet too
soon.
 Leave the crockery in longer (see the "Unloading
the dishwasher" section in the "Operation"
chapter).
You have used combination products that have
insufficient drying performance.
 Switch to another detergent or add rinse aid (see
"Using for the first time - Rinse aid").
Ingredients from the detergent have formed a
deposit.
 Switch to another detergent straight away.
The glassware is not dishwasher-proof. The surface
has altered.
 No remedy.
Purchase glassware that is dishwasher-proof.
The wash temperature of the selected programme
was too low.
 Select a programme with a higher main wash
temperature.
The bleaching effect of the detergent used is too low.
 Switch to another detergent.
Natural dyes, e.g. from carrots, tomatoes or ketchup,
may be the cause. The amount of detergent used or
its bleaching effect was not sufficient to deal with
natural dyes.
 Use more detergent (see "Detergent").
Parts that are already discoloured will not revert to
their original colour.
