White film or cloudy residue on dishes and glassware.

Safety First: This is a water quality issue, not a safety hazard.

• Check rinse aid: Ensure the dispenser is full and increase the dosage setting.
• Adjust detergent: Use less detergent if you have soft water; use a detergent formulated for hard water if needed.
• Run a cleaning cycle: Use a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of white vinegar on the top rack to remove mineral buildup.
• Verify water temperature: Ensure hot water at the sink reaches at least 120°F (49°C) before starting the dishwasher.
