Placing cutlery and crockery in the dishwasher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, you must:
• Remove any large bits of leftover food.
• Leave caked and burnt on leftover food to soak for a while.
When inserting the dishes, take care to ensure that:
• The spray arm is not obstructed by the dishes.
• Hollow objects are placed with the opening facing downwards,
to ensure that that cannot hold the water.
Plates and cutlery must not cover each other
• Glassware items must not touch, otherwise damage can occur.
• Place large objects that are difficult to clean in the lower basket.
• The upper basket is specially designed for lighter objects, such as
glasses and coffee and tea cups.
Warning!
• Long knives standing upright in the cutlery basket can cause injury!
• Long and/or sharp items of cutlery, such as carving knives, should
be laid (placed horizontally) in the upper basket.
Damage to glassware and other crockery
Potential causes:
• Type of glass or manufacturing process. Chemical composition
of the dishwasher detergent.
• Water temperature and duration of the wash cycle.
Proposed solution:
• Use glassware and porcelain crockery produced by manufacturers
that state that it is suitable for dishwashers.
• Use a milder/less corrosive dishwasher detergent. If needed, ask
detergent manufacturers for more information.
• Select a wash cycle with a lower temperature.
• Remove glassware and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as
possible after the cycle has finished, to prevent damage.
