Frequently Asked Questions by Customers

Q. Do I need to pre-rinse my dishes?
A. No. Modern Smeg dishwashers are designed to handle heavily soiled dishes. Just scrape off large food particles and greasy residue to help prevent the filter from clogging.

Q. How does the drying system work?
A. The DW8210X uses a natural condenser drying system combined with an automatic door-opening feature (Dry Assist +) at the end of the cycle to improve drying performance.

Q. What should I do if my dishwasher won’t start?
A. First, check that the power supply is connected and the water shut-off valves are open. A lack of electricity or water may prevent the unit from starting.

Q. Why should I use a rinse aid?
A. Rinse aid helps water slide off dishes more effectively, improving drying results while reducing streaks, spots, and cloudy film.

Q. What does the E1 error code mean?
A. This code indicates a water leak detected by the flood switch at the base of the dishwasher. To reset, carefully pull the unit out and tilt it backward to allow any collected water to drain.
