If washing-up liquid has been used in the rinse aid dispenser, the dispenser will need to be removed and flushed. A suitably qualified technician should only undertake this action. Please contact us to arrange a technician to visit.
If the foam is coming out of the appliance during operation and you suspect that washing-up liquid has been used, please switch the appliance off and contact our team for advice.
If using “All-in-One”multi-tablets, use the Multi-tab function, available on most dishwashers. This will turn off the separate rinse aid. Please see your user manual for instructions

Check you are using the correct detergent. Washing up liquid must not be used in a dishwasher
Ensure you don't mix washing up liquid and rinse aid in the rinse aid chamber
Multi-tab detergent already contains rinse aid therefore additional rinse aid can result in overdosing
Washing up by hand is not required prior to using the dishwasher, washing up liquid on your crockery can result in excess foam
Don't pre-rinse, only scrape your plates as dishwasher detergent is designed to handle certain levels of grease and soil. Pre-rinsing unbalances this and can lead to excess foam
Take care when refilling the rinse aid container and wipe away any spillage. Spilt rinse aid will foam when the program starts
