Glasses are cloudy/spotted • Select Hi Temp Wash option.
• Check water temperature. Incoming water should be 120° F (49° C)
• Always use a rinse aid.
• Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for
approximately 5 minutes. If removed, the problem is due to hard water. Adjust
detergent amount being used to match water hardness (pg. 6). Be sure detergent is
fresh, stored properly and is a high quality brand.
• If cloudiness is not removable, it is etching. This is an erosion of the surface of the
glassware and can be caused by water that is too hot, from using too much detergent
or by prewashing. Detergent needs food soil to act upon. If etching has occurred, the
glassware is permanently damaged. To prevent further etching, adjust the detergent
amount to match the water hardness, stop prewashing, and use water heating options
only when incoming water temperature is below 120° F (49° C).
