misuse

Users often neglect the requirements of manufacturers, do not pay attention to the instructions and manuals. Awareness of their relevance comes only when they become a dishwasher to wash the bad. Usually it is five major errors:

  • neglect of pre-cleaning utensils on the food debris;
  • violation of the order of placing in baskets;
  • loading in excess of the number of packages;
  • the wrong choice of cleaning modes;
  • error when using detergents.

Pre-cleaning utensils

Before laying the machine utensils should be cleaned from the remnants of food. Otherwise, it will accumulate in the detergent compartment, clog the filter, a negative impact on the work of the sprinkler. The natural result of such use are complaints that the dishwasher washes badly.

The order placement

Any, even the smallest dishwasher, equipped with metal baskets, which are divided into zones for certain types of items.

Placement takes into account the direction and intensity of water flows, which allows you to thoroughly wash out the contamination. On the contrary, its violation does not wash dishes with the required quality level.

Laying in different models may be different, but in general it will follow the order shown in the table.

Exceeding the number of sets

Depending on the type of cleaning device are calculated for a certain number of sets:

  • in compact models loaded from 4 to 6;
  • narrow models are calculated on 9 sets;
  • full-size can take up to 12-17.

Based on the number of sets, the manufacturer determines the optimal water flow, and other parameters of washing. Increased packing density, there are problems with the water spray, and access to the washing compartment. All this can not be expected that the dishes will be washed thoroughly and with the necessary quality.

In some cases, try to compensate for the hostess overload or restarting using intensive washing, reducing the working life of the device.

Selecting

Different models may have a different number of modes, but the standard set all the same. This is normal, reinforced and delicate.

Do not be surprised that the dishwasher washes bad, if selected for heavily utensils delicate (acceleration) mode. At a temperature of 45 ° C in apparatus not easy to cope with dried food, grease and other contaminants.

Detergents

Malfunction of the dishwasher can create improper use of detergents. The instructions from the manufacturer specifies a list of tools that can be used with a specific model.

Attempting to use their universal counterparts or washing for the other models will not yield the desired effect. Deficiencies in the operation of the apparatus may be caused by failure to comply with the dosage.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Another reason for the dishwasher bad washes the dishes, is untimely departure. In operation, especially with a large number of sets in the device for accumulating food remnants. They settle on the rocker sprinkler, internal filtration system, contribute to the emergence of deposits and blockages.

Poor tap water with a large number of small particles may clog the filter inlet. The only way to prevent such problems is the regular cleaning of filters and thoroughly rinse the inside of the inner compartment.

Most manufacturers recommend to clean the sink after each use.

technical issues

If the claims order to operate there, and the dishwasher still wash it became ill, the probability of more serious problems associated with the breakdown of the structural elements. The brand, expensive apparatuses such as Bosch, Electrolux or Hans, they arise from the long-term and intensive use, are the result of natural wear of individual components and mechanisms. Among the reasons for reducing the quality of cleaning experts usually mention:

  • breakage of the heater;
  • failure of the circulation pump;
  • problems with the sprinkler yoke;
  • failure of the temperature sensor;
  • failure of a software module.

Faulty heater

One of the key elements of the design that provides heating water to desired temperature. More than any other element susceptible to scale build-up, can burn in continuous operation. This causes lack of heating and failure of the normal operation of the device.

Fault circulation pump

In case of failure of this mechanism for the water supply can not sink. The latest models of the heater and the pump is installed in the same block. At failure of the repair is impractical, breakage is eliminated by replacing the whole unit.

Problems with rocker sprinkler

This problem occurs if the fan malfunctions, which rotates the rocker. In the absence of rotation no water is distributed inside the compartment. The dishes are not washed with the desired quality.

Failure of the temperature sensor

This element monitors the temperature of the liquid, it provides an increase or decrease to normal. Its failure means failure to comply with the desired temperature, and hence the problem with the sink. Eliminates replacement with a new item with similar characteristics.

Failure in a software module

Replacement solve the problem better with the software module. Responsible for transmitting commands to the mechanisms and structure nodes. His refusal will not allow the car to enter the desired mode of operation and to provide the appropriate level of treatment.

All technical plan listed faults better addressed through an invited expert. When repairs on their own without proper experience and qualifications of a high probability of new breakdowns.
