Possible cause
The glassware is not
dishwasher-proof. The
surfaces are affected.
The wash temperature of the
programme selected was too
low.
The bleaching effect of the
detergent used is too low.
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.
The salt reservoir cap has not
been screwed on correctly.
The affected items are not
corrosion resistant.
The I COLD programme
was not run after adding
dishwasher salt. Traces of salt
have got into the wash cycle.
Remedy
There is no remedy.
Purchase glassware
which is dishwasher-proof.
Select a programme with a
higher wash temperature.
Use a different type of
detergent.
Use more detergent, see

ble.

screws back on correctly.

dishwasher-proof.
