Possible cause and solution
Detergent deposits.


The glassware is not dishwasher-proof. The surfaces are
affected.
In the future make sure you purchase dishwasher-proof
glassware.
The wash temperature of the selected program was too
low.
Select a program with a higher wash temperature.

The bleaching effect of the detergent is too low.
Switch to another detergent.

Natural dyes e.g. from carrots, tomatoes or ketchup may be
the cause. The amount of detergent used or its bleaching
effect was not sufficient to deal with natural dyes.
Use more detergent (see "Operation, Adding detergent").

Discolored plastic items will not regain their original color.
The "Cold" program was not run after dishwasher salt was
