• Salt leakage exists. >>> Pay attention not to spill salt around the salt filling hole while
adding salt. Spilled salt can cause scratches. Make sure that the salt reservoir lid is
tightly closed after finishing the filling process. Run the prewash programme to remove
the salt that spilled inside the machine. Since the salt granules that will remain under the
lid will dissolve during prewash, causing the lid loosen, check the lid once again at the
end of the programme.
• Water hardness setting is low or salt level is insufficient >>> Measure the hardness of the
supply water appropriately and check the water hardness setting.
• Dishes are not placed orderly in the machine. >>> When placing the glasses and other
glassware into the basket lean them not against other dishes but the edges or racks of
the basket or the glass support tines. Striking of the glasses to each other or to other
dishes due to the impact of water during washing can cause breaks, or scratches on
their surfaces.
A smear remains on glasses that resembles milk stain which can not be
removed when wiped by hand. A bluish / rainbow appearance occurs
when the glass is pointed to light.
• Excessive rinse aid is used. >>>Lower rinse aid setting. Clean the spilled rinse aid when
adding rinse aid.
• Corrosion has occurred on glass due to soft water. >>> Measure the hardness of the
supply water appropriately and check the water hardness setting. If your supply water
is soft (<5 dH), do not use salt. Choose programmes that wash in higher temperatures
(e.g. 60-65°C). You can also use glass protective detergents that are commercially
available.
