SPOTS AND STAINS ON DISHES
•
Spotting and lming on dishes
Is your water hard or is there a high mineral content in your water? Conditioning
the nal rinse water with a liquid rinse aid helps eliminate spotting and lming.
Keep the rinse aid dispenser lled. Always use a high-temp option. If your water
hardness is 13 grains or above, it is strongly recommended that you install
a home water softener. If you do not wish to drink softened water, have the
softener installed onto your hot water supply.
Is the water temperature too low? For best dishwashing results, water should be
120ºF (49ºC) as it enters the dishwasher.
Did you use the correct amount of eective detergent? Use recommended
dishwasher detergents only. Refer to the “Detergent Dispenser” section. Never
Use less than 1 tb (15 g) per load. Detergent must be fresh to be eective. Store
detergent in a cool, dry area. Heavy soil and/or hard water generally require extra
detergent.
Is the home water pressure high enough for proper dishwasher lling? Home
water pressure should be 20 to 120 psi ( 138 to 828 kpa) for proper dishwasher
ll. A booster pump on the water supply can be added if pressure is too low.

cup on the bottom rack.
2. Run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle. Do not use
detergent. Vinegar will mix with the wash water.
