How to prevent cloudy glassware after dishwashing?

How to prevent cloudy glassware after dishwashing?

 

 

There are several reasons for your glasses to get cloudy. Please see if one of the following will solve the problem.

 

 

 

Make sure rinse aid is not running low or depleted 

 

Rinse aid prevents water droplets from drying on your glassware and leaving water marks. When the rinse aid light on your dishwasher is on, it’s time to refill.

 

The rinse aid reservoir is located on the inside of your dishwasher’s door, next to the detergent compartment. Open the cover of the reservoir, pour in the rinse aid until the reservoir is full and close the cover. 

 

 

 

Make sure the rinse aid setting is appropriate

 

Your dishwasher has a rinse aid setting which determines the amount of rinse aid the appliance uses. If you see water marks on your dishes despite using rinse aid, you may want to increase your dishwasher’s rinse aid dosage. If there’s a bluish/rainbow-like colouration on glassware even after wiping, try lowering your dishwasher’s rinse aid dosage. 

 

 

 

Check the water hardness level and use dishwasher salt accordingly

 

Dishwasher salt helps your appliance’s internal softener unit reduce the hardness of tap water. If your water supply is soft (<5dH), don’t use salt as it may scratch or corrode glassware.

 

Follow the instructions in your user manual to measure your tap water’s hardness level. If you’re having trouble finding your manual, download it here using your product’s model number.

 

 

 

Avoid spilling dishwasher salt inside the appliance

 

Dishwasher salt reservoirs contain water, and this water may overflow when you fill the reservoir with salt. Salt may also spill inside the appliance while refilling the salt reservoir. Salt inside the dishwasher tub may scratch glassware.

 

To minimize salt spills, use the funnel provided with your Beko dishwasher when pouring salt into the reservoir, and be sure to wipe away any overflowing water or salt granules. Close the reservoir lid tightly after refilling it.

 

Run a prewash programme or the shortest programme to wash away any salt that may have been spilled inside the appliance. Salt granules under the lid will dissolve during prewash and may cause the lid to loosen. Check the lid at the end of the programme and close it firmly.

 

 

 

Make sure the water hardness setting is appropriate

 

Hard water also contributes to marks forming on your glassware. Your dishwasher has a water hardness setting which you need to adjust according to the hardness of your tap water.

 

Follow the instructions in your user manual to determine the correct setting. If you’re having trouble finding your manual, download it here using your product’s model number.

 

 

 

Avoid washing glass items together with aluminium or aluminium-blend kitchenware 

 

Kitchen utensils that contain or are made of aluminium may be corroded in the dishwasher. Particles that break away from these may scratch glassware. Avoid washing glass and aluminium items together. 

 

 

 

Take advantage of the Auto GlassShield® , SteamGloss® and GlassCare 40 °C Programme

 

Many Beko dishwashers feature specific technologies and programmes to protect your glassware.

 

Auto GlassShield® Technology protects your glassware from corrosion by detecting water hardness and adjusting the water hardness setting accordingly.

 

SteamGloss® Technology provides an extra 10 minutes of intense heating to minimize water stains.

 

The GlassCare 40 °C Programme washes your glassware gently at 40 °C to protect your delicate glassware.
