Possible causes

activated.
Too high temperature and/or too much
detergent can cause etching on crystal.
Unfortunately, this cannot be repaired, only
prevented.
Rinse aid dosage setting too high.
Some foodstuffs, such as mustard,
mayonnaise, lemon, vinegar, salt and
dressings, can mark stainless steel if left for
too long.
All stainless steel can cause spots on silver
if they come into contact during dishwashing.
Aluminium can also cause spots on dishes.
Lipstick and tea can be difficult to wash off.
The dishes are not correctly placed or the
