Rust, discoloration or surface deterioration occurs on dishes
• Salt leakage exists. >>> Salt may cause deterioration and oxidation on
metal surfaces. Pay attention not to spill salt around the salt filling hole
while adding salt. Make sure that the salt reservoir lid is tightly closed after
finishing the filling process. Run the prewash programme to remove the salt
that spilled inside the machine. Since the salt granules that will remain under
the lid will dissolve during prewash, causing the lid loosen, check the lid
once again at the end of the programme.
• Salty food remnants have remained on dishes for a long time. >>> If
silverware soiled with such foods will be kept waiting in machine, dirt must
be removed by prewash or dishes must be washed without being kept
waiting.
• Electric installation is not grounded. >>>Check if your machine is connected
to the actual grounding line. Otherwise, the static electric created in the
product causes arcs on the surfaces of metal items creating pores, removing
the protective cover on the surface and causing discoloration.
• Intensive cleansers such as bleaches are used. >>> Protective cover on
metal surfaces gets damaged and looses its efficiency in time when it gets in
contact with cleansers such as bleach. Do not wash your dishes with bleach.
• Metal items particularly such as knives are used for purposes other then
their intended uses. >>> Protective cover on the edges of knives may get
damaged when they are used for purposes such as opening cans. Do not
use metal kitchen utensils out of their intended uses.
• Silverware are made of low quality stainless steel. >>> Corrosion on such
items is inevitable; they should not be washed in dishwashers.
• Kitchen utensils that are already corroded are washed in dishwasher.
>>> Rust on a corroded item can migrate to other stainless steel surfaces
and cause corrosion on those surfaces as well. Such items should not be
washed in dishwashers.
