Baumatic
Corrosion / Rust Contamination
Rust spots appearing on cutlery or inside the dishwasher tub.

Possible Causes
Non-stainless or damaged cutlery, Chipped rack coating exposing metal, High salt concentration from leaks
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No electrical work required; standard handling precautions only.
- Check cutlery: Remove any non-dishwasher-safe or low-grade steel items that may rust.
- Inspect racks: Look for chips in the plastic coating of the Baumatic baskets. Rusting metal underneath can stain items.
- Repair racks: Use rack repair paint or caps to cover exposed metal tines, or replace the dishwasher basket(s) if heavily corroded.
- Check salt cap: Ensure the salt cap seals properly and is not leaking brine into the tub.
- Clean stains: Use a stainless steel cleaner or dishwasher cleaner to remove existing rust stains.
