GLASSWARE / FLATWARE
SPOTTED OR CLOUDY
• Check water hardness. For extremely hard
water, it may be necessary to install a water
softener. (See Detergent Usage Guide, page
13.)
• Water temperature may be low. Avoid
extremely low or high temperatures. (See
Factors Affecting Performance, page 15.)
• Avoid overloading and improper loading. (See
Preparing and Loading Dishes, pages 9-11.)
• Use fresh detergent. Old detergent is
ineffective.
• Make sure rinse aid dispenser is filled.
• Check to see that proper amount of detergent
is being used for cycle selected. (See
Detergent Dispenser, pages 12-14.)
• Home water pressure may be too low—it
should be 20 to 90 pounds per square inch
(psi).

ETCHING

• Using too much detergent in soft or softened
water causes this film that cannot be
removed.
• Adjust the amount of detergent based on the
water hardness. (Check Detergent Usage
Guide, page 13.)
• Lower the water temperature.
Solutions to Common Problems
DISHWARE STAINED OR
DISCOLORED
DETERGENT LEFT IN
DISPENSER CUP
• Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the
stains by hand washing in a solution of 1/2
cup (120 ml) bleach and one quart (1 L) of
warm water. Rinse thoroughly.
• Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or
brown film. A water filter installed in-line with
your water supply will correct this problem.
• Aluminum utensils can leave gray/black
marks when they rub against other items.
Load properly.
• Certain high acid foods can cause
discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if
allowed to sit for a long period. Use the Rinse
cycle or rinse by hand if not operating
dishwasher at once.
• Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in
silverware basket can cause pitting on the
stainless steel utensils. Avoid mixing
stainless steel and silver.
• Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh
detergent.
• Be sure water action can reach the dispenser.
• Check to see if cycle has been completed.
• Make sure items do not prevent the detergent
dispenser from opening.
• Make sure the upper rack is firmly engaged
to the nozzle on the back of the tub before
closing the door.
