A600B fails to clean dishes in fast and intensive programs despite five service visits
Owner complaint on Şikayetvar (Turkish consumer complaint platform) dated April 2026, reporting the A600B fails to clean in fast/intensive programs, with 5 service visits over 2 months without resolution.
What to check. If buying this model, be aware that multiple owners report poor cleaning performance in fast/intensive programs that service visits did not fix. Consider testing intensive-cycle cleaning performance before purchase, or budget for potential replacement/refund disputes.
A600B fails to wash clean on fast/intense programmes, detergent residue on glasses, unresolved after 5 service visits
Owner complaint (Alper, İzmir) on Şikayetvar, from the search 'Arçelik A 600 B Star arıza forum'. A new A600B left food residue on dishes on fast and intense programmes and detergent residue on glasses; 5 service visits in ~2 months did not resolve it, and the owner was pushed toward a replacement/refund claim.
What to check. A buyer should treat wash performance as the main risk on this model: verify on a fast/intense cycle early in the warranty period, and keep service visit records, because owners report the fault persisting through multiple visits.
A600B leaves plates spotted and foamy, does not rinse properly, unresolved after 4 service visits
Owner complaint (Esra/Salih, Samsun) on Şikayetvar, from the search 'Arçelik A 600 B Star bulaşık makinesi sorun'. A new A600B left plates spotted and foamy and did not rinse properly from the day of installation; switching detergents at the service's request changed nothing, and the replacement request was refused after 4 service visits.
What to check. This is a second independent owner reporting the same new-unit wash/rinse failure, so it is a recurring pattern rather than a one-off. A buyer should test rinse quality early and expect the manufacturer to attribute it to detergent before any part-level fix.
A600B requires five service visits in two months without resolution
The same owner reports five service visits in two months with no resolution, and a service technician's replacement request was denied by Arçelik, leaving the owner unable to use the machine.
What to check. Even when service is called, the manufacturer may not approve replacement. This means a defective unit could leave you without a working dishwasher for months while disputes continue. Factor in this risk when buying.
A600B shows E02 (no water) error within first month of use
Owner complaint on Şikayetvar dated June 2026 reports the A600B displayed E02 (no water) error within the first month, despite the machine washing fine after installation and after a service visit, ruling out weak mains pressure.
What to check. E02 (no water) error appearing within the first month suggests a defective water inlet component, not a plumbing issue. This is a high-severity early failure that may require warranty service or replacement.
A600B leaves detergent residue and causes glass spotting/matting
Same owner complaint reports persistent detergent residue and glass spotting/matting, with the owner trying multiple detergent brands (Asperox, Finish, Bingo, Fairy) without improvement.
What to check. Detergent residue and glass matting persisted across multiple detergent brands, suggesting a machine-side rinse issue rather than user error. If you buy this model, expect possible ongoing spotting issues that may not be resolved by service.
These reports come from the pages linked under each item: owner forums, repair guides and workshops. They are not a diagnosis of any one unit, and a careful check of the one you are buying still applies.
