How To Prevent Stainless Steel Getting Rusty In The Dishwasher?
I have a Hotpoint SDW80 dishwasher.
It’s very good but on the normal program (the one I use the most) leaves the stainless steel like pots, cutlery and so on labelled ‘dishwasher safe’ rusty.
Is there anything that I can do to prevent that happening? Do I have to stop the program towards the end when the drying time is active, would be that OK or I have to wait till the program has completed?
Any other suggestion?

Why Does My Cutlery Come Out Of The Dishwasher With Brown Rusty Marks On It?
Maybe because your cutlery isn’t 18/10 stainless steel? I found that only 18/10 stainless doesn’t rust (from experience).
A typical composition of 18% chromium and 10% nickel, commonly known as 18/10 stainless is often used in flatware.
If you have rusty cutlery, I suggest not to leave them in the humidity of the dishwasher afterwards, as this exarcerbate the problem. Once rusty, this will only get worse. And it will impact on the the food you eat, with an acrid/metallic aftertaste, especially spoons in coffee, etc.
Go buy yourself a new set, but a good quality one!
