Possible Causes
Rinse aid empty or set too low, Eco program with low final temperature, Door not opened after cycle, Heating element partially faulty, Plastic items retaining water
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Surfaces may be hot at the end of the cycle.
- Check rinse aid: Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled and the dosage setting is appropriate for your water hardness.
- Program choice: For best drying, use an intensive or standard program rather than the shortest eco or quick wash.
- Unload correctly: After the cycle ends, open the door slightly to let steam escape. Always unload the lower basket first to avoid dripping from the upper rack.
- Loading: Angle cups and bowls so water can drain. Avoid placing deep items face-up.
- If still poor: The heater or fan (on models with active drying) may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
