dishwasher not draining

spindizzy

I just installed a slim dishwasher, thor th20. I ran a cycle and dishes are clean but there is a about 2 inches of water in the bottom after the cycle is finished. I don't think its completely clean water. Is this normal, I think it will smell if left there. The drain pipe runs up to about 80cm and then down into a 35mm pipe, the instructions said to have the pipe no higher than 1000mm and no lower than 400mm. It is level on the ground.

Any ideas appreciated

Thanks

Don't think so, its new out of the box today and it is draining during the cycle but at the end the water is left

There should be a small bit of water left under the drain tray to prevent the seals from cracking due to dryness.

run a new cycle and it should completely drain before adding new clean water.

If not there is a problem.

Check the outlet height in the manual as well, some cant pump too high
