Spots or stains on dishes (cont.)

PROBLEM ...

White spots on cookware with non-stick finish

Brown stains on dishes and dish- washer Interior

Black or gray marks on dishes

Orange stains on

plastic dishes or dishwasher interior

CAUSE ...

Seasoning removed by dishwasher detergents

High iron content in water supply

Aluminum items

Large amounts of tomato-

based foods in dishes placed in the dishwasher

SOLUTION ...

Reseason cookware after dishwasher washing.

Remove by washing dishes (after food soil has been

removed) with 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon of citric acid crystals added to covered section of detergent dispenser. Do not use detergent. Follow with a Normal Wash cycle with detergent. If treatment is needed more often than every other month, the installation of an iron removal unit is recommended.

Aluminum items should be loaded so that they will not rub against dishes during washing. Throwaway aluminum items should not be washed in the dishwasher because

they may break down and cause marking. Aluminum markings can be removed by using a mild abrasive cleanser.

Stains may gradually fade over time. Regular use of heated drying may cause stains to fade slower. Stains will not affect dishwasher performance. Regular use of Quick Rinse cycle or No Heat Dry option will reduce the likelihood of staining.

Dishes do not dry completely

Dishes are not dry Dishes do not drain properly

Plastics

Rinse agent dispenser is empty

No Heat Dry option was used

Dishes are damaged during cycle

Chipping of dishes

Improper loading

Dishes must have proper water drainage. Do not over- load. Refer to the "Loading Your Dishwasher" section, pages 7-10. Use a liquid rinse agent to speed drying.

Some plastics, due to material, may need to be towel dried.

Refer to the "Using the rinse agent dispenser" section, page 12.

Do not use the No Heat Dry option.

Load dishes and glasses so that they are stable and do not strike together from washing action. Moving rack in and out slowly will also minimize chipping.

NOTE: Some types of china and glassware are too delicate for automatic dishwashing and should be hand washed; for example: antiques, feather-edged crystal, and similar types.
