7. Troubleshooting
Refer to this section for solutions to common issues.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Bottles are not completely dry after a cycle. | Overloading the unit; items overlapping; insufficient drying time. | Ensure items are loaded with adequate space for airflow. Try a longer drying cycle or the 'keep sterile' mode. |
| Unpleasant odor during or after operation. | Residue buildup; filter needs replacement; bottles not rinsed. | Perform a descaling cycle. Replace the water filter if due. Ensure bottles are rinsed of milk residue before placing in the washer. |
| Filter indicator light remains on after replacement. | Filter reset button not pressed. | Press and hold the filter reset button for 3-5 seconds. |
| Small particles visible on a new filter. | Natural filter materials. | This is normal. Simply rinse the new filter before its first use. |
| Condensation inside the filter. | Filter is pre-rinsed during manufacturing. | This is normal and does not affect performance. |
