Items not suitable for dishwashers
– cutlery with wooden or horn handles,
– wooden or plastic chopping boards,
– glued items, e.g. old knives with
handles which have been glued on,
– hand-made craft items,
– copper or tin items,
– plastic items which are not heat resis-
tant.
Please note
– Silver- and aluminium items can suf-
fer some discolouration.
– Aluminium components (e.g. grease
filter) must not be cleaned with caus-
tic alkaline commercial or industrial
detergents. This may damage ma-
terial or, in extreme cases, cause
severe chemical reaction.
– Silver, treated with a silver polish
may still be damp or spotted at the
end of a programme, where water
has not run off smoothly. It may need
rubbing dry with a soft cloth. Silver,
treated in a silver immersion dip is
usually dry at the end of a pro-
gramme but may discolour.
– Colours painted over a glaze may
fade after many washes.
– Clouding may occur on glasses after
frequent washing.
We recommend:
Washing delicate glassware in the
ECONOMY 55 ° - programme, (or for
models where the programme is
available, GENTLE 45°C) might
reduce the risk of clouding.
There are no standard guidelines for
washing glassware. When in doubt
wash by hand.
When purchasing new crockery, cut-
lery and glassware make sure they
are dishwasher safe.
