Why does my Pelgrim GVW250L leave spots on stainless steel or silver?
If spots appear on stainless steel or silver items washed in your Pelgrim Dishwasher, it could be due to certain foods like mustard or lemon being left on items for too long; rinse these off before washing. Also, different metals in contact during washing can cause spots, so separate silver, stainless steel, and aluminum items. Check and adjust the rinse aid dosage. If using all-in-one detergent, consider switching or adding separate rinse aid and salt. Ensure the salt compartment is full and the water softener setting is correct. Also, make sure the salt compartment lid is properly tightened.
