Dishwasher racks are rusting or the plastic coating is peeling, leaving rust marks on dishes.

Safety first: No electrical work is required.

• Inspect racks: Remove upper and lower racks and check for rust spots or missing plastic coating.
• Use rack repair kit: For minor damage, apply rack repair paint or caps to exposed tines to prevent further rusting.
• Replace racks: If corrosion is extensive, replace the rack with a CDA-compatible upper or lower basket.
• Loading care: Avoid dropping heavy items onto racks to reduce chipping of the coating.
