What should I do if there is spotting and filming on my dishes?

Spotting and filming is typically caused by hard water, insufficient detergent, or detergent with low phosphorus content. To remove existing spots and film, you can do a vinegar rinse: wash and rinse the load as usual using AIR DRY, remove all metal items, place 2 cups (500 ml) of white vinegar in a container on the bottom rack, and run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle. Using detergent with the highest available phosphorus content and filling dispensers to capacity can help prevent future spotting.
