Solution

Dishwasher detergent dispenser does not open at all during the programme or there are residues of detergent in the dispenser at the end of the programme.

• The detergent tablet was stuck in the dispenser and therefore was not completely washed away by water.
• Make sure that items in the baskets do not impede the lid of the detergent dispenser from opening.
• Do not place large items at the front of bottom baskets. Follow the loading instruction in the UM or separate instruction that is provided with your dishwasher
• Water cannot wash away the detergent from the dispenser. Make sure that the spray arms are not blocked or clogged.

• Test the dishwasher by running an empty cycle and see if the dispenser opens.
