Tableware is not dry - Insufficient rinse aid or incorrect program/settings

What does Tableware not dry mean?

Dishes and cutlery remain wet after the wash cycle, which can be due to a lack of rinse aid, improper program selection, or incorrect loading.

• No rinse aid used or dosage set too low.
• Programme or programme option has no drying phase, or the drying phase is too brief.
• Some option buttons decrease the drying result (e.g., varioSpeed).
• Tableware positioned at an angle where water collects in recesses.
• The combined detergent used has a poor drying performance.
• Extra Dry function not activated.

1. 1

   Add rinse aid if needed, and set the amount of rinse aid to be dispensed (Page 28, Page 29).

2. 2

   Select a programme with a drying phase (e.g., intensive, strong, ECO) and avoid options that decrease drying results.

3. 3

   Position tableware at an angle where possible, and arrange cutlery individually to avoid contact points and allow water to run off.

4. 4

   Activate the 'Extra Dry' function if available.

5. 5

   Wait until the programme ends and only remove tableware 30 minutes after the programme has ended.

6. 6

   Consider using a different combined detergent or a name-brand rinse aid with better drying performance.
