Dishes come out wet and not properly dried at the end of the cycle.

Safety first: Unplug before accessing internal components.

• Check rinse aid: Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled and the dosage setting is appropriate for your water hardness.
• Program selection: Use a standard or intensive program rather than a quick or eco cycle for better drying.
• Unload correctly: Open the door slightly at the end of the cycle to release steam. Always unload the lower basket first to avoid dripping from upper racks.
• Fan and heater check: If your Teka model has an active drying fan and dishes are consistently wet, test the drying fan and heater as described for E3/E12.
