PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE
Spotting can be caused by all these things:
• Extremely hard water. (See How to Choose and Use Detergent section.)
• Low inlet water temperature. (See How to Test Water Temperature section.)
• Overloading the dishwasher.
• Improper loading. (See Loading section.)
• Old or damp powder detergent.
• Phosphate level in detergent too low. (See How to Choose and Use Detergent section.)
• Rinse agent dispenser empty. (See How to Use Rinse Agent section.)
• Too little detergent. (See How to Choose and Use Detergent section.)
Local water conditions and personal preferences vary. Try several brands of detergent
to find one that gives the best results for you. A liquid dishwasher detergent may help
reduce filming.
YELLOW OR Tea or coffee can stain cups. Remove the stain by hand, using a solution of 1/2 cup
BROWN FILM bleach and 3 cups warm water.
An overall yellow or brown film on dishes or glassware can be caused by iron deposits
in water. A special filter in the water supply line is the only way to correct this
problem. Your water softener company can tell you about the filter.
Yellow film on sterling silver results when you wash copper utensils in the same load.
Silver polish will usually remove this stain.
