Problem Possible Cause What to Do
incorrectly loaded.
Drawer interior is stained
Some foods, like tomato
based products, may stain
the inside of the drawer
Pre-rinse dishes before placing in the drawer.
Alternatively, using the Rinse program after adding
the dishes may minimise staining.
Dishes did not dry
Incorrect loading. Ensure the dishes are not nesting together.
Dishes were left in the
drawer for several hours
after a wash.
We recommend unloading the dishes within a few
hours after a wash program has finished, as the
small amount of vapour left after the wash may -
with time - resettle on dishes as condensation. Using
rinse aid or increasing its setting may also help with
drying.
Rinse aid depleted. Refill the rinse aid dispenser.
Rinse aid setting too low. Increase the rinse aid setting.
Normal Eco/Eco program
used. Choose a different wash program.
Items that require a longer
drying time, e.g. plastic
utensils and containers
Some models only: Set the wash program with
Extra dry. (only available on some wash programs).
Program is taking much
longer than usual
Wrong type of detergent
used. Auto recovery
program has been
triggered to stop the
dishwasher overflowing
and to disperse excess
foam.
No action required. Allow the program to finish.
You may need to run your
chosen wash program
again with the correct
detergent if the dishes are
not clean at the end of the
recovery program.
Excessive motor noise No water in the motor
area.
This usually occurs on the first use or when the
dishwasher has not been used for long periods of
time. Pour 3 cups of water into the drawer before
running a wash program.
