items not suitable for use in the dishwasher
When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, please make sure they are dishwasher-proof. Some
items are not suitable for dishwashers.
• Wooden cutlery and crockery or items with wooden parts may discolour and fade. The glue used
in these items is not dishwasher-proof and wooden handles may come loose after being washed
in a dishwasher.
• Craft items, antiques, valuable vases and decorative glassware are also not suitable for
dishwashers.
• Plastic items (e.g. tupperware) which are not heat-resistant may melt or loose shape due to the
high temperature in the dishwasher.
• Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items may discolour or become matt.
• Clouding may occur on glasses and delicate glassware after frequent washing. Do not wash
delicate glassware, or glassware containing lead crystal in a dishwasher. Wash delicate
glassware by hand instead.
• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing. Residues like egg
white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore, please
clean the residues from silver immediately after use.
