If your dishes are wet after washing them in your new Miele dishwasher, there could be a few reasons for this:
Improper loading: Make sure you are loading the dishwasher correctly, allowing enough space between dishes for proper water circulation and drying. Overloading the dishwasher or placing dishes too close together can prevent proper airflow and lead to moisture retention.
Rinse aid: Check if your dishwasher has a rinse aid dispenser and ensure it is filled with rinse aid. Rinse aid helps to reduce water droplets and promote better drying by preventing water from forming droplets on the dishes and glassware. If the rinse aid reservoir is empty, the dishes may not dry properly.
Wash cycle selection: Different dishwasher cycles have varying drying capabilities. Ensure that you are selecting an appropriate wash cycle with a drying option. Some cycles include a heated drying phase that helps to evaporate moisture from the dishes. Consult your dishwasher's user manual for information on the different cycles and their drying capabilities.
Water temperature: Check the temperature of the water used in your dishwasher. If the water temperature is too low, it may not effectively dissolve detergent and activate drying mechanisms. Ensure that your dishwasher is connected to a hot water source, and the water temperature is set appropriately.
Malfunction or settings: If you've checked all the above factors and your dishes still remain wet consistently, there may be an issue with your dishwasher. It's possible that there is a malfunction with the dishwasher's heating element or drying mechanism. In such cases, contacting Miele's customer support or a professional technician to diagnose and address the issue would be recommended.
Remember to consult your Miele dishwasher's user manual for specific instructions and recommendations related to loading, settings, and troubleshooting for optimal drying performance.
