Dishwasher is making unusual noises
Resolution
Issue:
- The dishwasher is making unusual noises
Applies to:
- dishwasher
Resolution:
1. Humming noise just after starting:
There is no cause for concern, the dishwasher always starts a washing cycle with a pumping program, which produces this noise.
2. Loud noise or knocking:
There is no cause for concern, the noise is produced by the detergent dispenser opening.
3. Beeping sound during pumping:
Add a drop of detergent (not too much!) to the detergent dispenser to lubricate the pumping mechanism.
4. Rustling sound during the drying phase:
This may indicate a fault with the drying fan and must be resolved by an engineer.
Warning: We do not recommend using the product until the problem has been completely fixed. Unplug the product and do not plug it in again until you are certain that it is OK to do so.
