Fragile dishes

A number of household goods are not suit-

able for machine washing. This can be due to

a variety of reasons. Certain materials cannot

withstand intense heat; others can be damaged

by the dishwasher detergent.

Fragile decoration

China with decoration on top of the glaze (the

goods have a rough feel) should not be machine

washed.

Crystal/ glass

Place the goods so that they do not knock to-

gether during the wash. Use the lowest possible

wash temperature and the shortest possible pro-

gram. Do not heat dry! Antique and very fragile

items should not be machine washed.

Glass which is machine washed at high tem-

peratures can in time develop a grey film which

cannot be removed. Wash fine glass at the low-

est temperature and with a low dosage of dish-

washer detergent.

Silver

Silver and stainless steel items should not come

into contact with each other as the silver can

discolor.

Cutlery with glued handles

Certain types of adhesive cannot withstand ma-

chine washing. In such cases the handles can

come loose.

Wood

Wooden items should only be machine washed

if they are labeled as dishwasher safe.

�luminum

Aluminum can be dulled by machine washing.

However, good quality aluminum saucepans

can be machine washed, although a reduction in

luster should be expected.

Plastic

Certain types of plastic cannot withstand the

high temperature generated in machine dish-

washing.

Protect plastic goods

Select a program with a low temperature.
