Possible Causes

Salt reservoir empty or set incorrectly, Hard water with no softening, Excessive detergent, Low rinse aid setting

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

User adjustments:

  • Check that the water softener salt reservoir is filled with dishwasher salt and the cap is tight.
  • Set the water hardness level on the softener according to your local water hardness (refer to Indesit manual).
  • Use the recommended amount of detergent; avoid over‑dosing.
  • Increase rinse aid setting if glasses are not sheeting water properly.

Run an empty hot cycle with a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of white vinegar (in a dishwasher‑safe container on the top rack) to remove existing limescale.
