Possible Causes

Empty salt reservoir, Incorrect water hardness setting, Low rinse aid, Poor quality detergent

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow dishes to cool before handling.

  • Check salt: Open the salt reservoir and refill with dishwasher salt if low. Wipe away any spilled salt from the tub.
  • Adjust hardness: Set the water softener level in the control menu according to your local water hardness (see Gorenje manual).
  • Refill rinse aid: Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled and adjust the dosage to a higher setting if spotting persists.
  • Use quality detergent: Try a reputable brand of tablets or powder designed for dishwashers.
  • Run a cleaning cycle: Use a dishwasher cleaner to remove existing limescale from the interior and spray arms.

Persistent white film that does not dissolve in vinegar may be etching; reduce detergent dosage and use a gentler program.
