WHAT TO DO
•Use a rinse agent to remove spots
and prevent new film build-up.
•To remove stubborn spots from glassware:
1 Remove all metal utensils from the
dishwasher.
2 Do not add detergent.
3 Select the NORMAL WASH cycle
and HEATED DRY option.
4 Start the dishwasher and allow to run
until the main wash.
5 Open the door and pour 2 cups
(500 ml)of white vinegar into the
bottom of the dishwasher.
6 Close the door and allow to complete
the cycle. If vinegar rinse doesn't
work: Repeat as above, except use
1/4 cup (60 ml) of citric acid crystals
instead of vinegar.
•This is called etching and is permanent.
To prevent this from happening, use less
detergent if you have soft water. Wash
glassware in the shortest cycle that will get
them clean.
•Lower the water heater temperature.
•Remove marks with a mild, abrasive
cleaner.
•Make sure inlet water temperature is
correct.
•Depending on your model select BOOST
& HEATED DRY or WATER TEMP and
HEATED DRY options.
•Check the rinse agent dispenser.
•Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker.
Remove any other appliances from
the circuit.
•Try resetting.
