Items not suitable for dishwashers
– Wooden cutlery and dishes or items
with wooden parts, as these may
discolour or fade. The glue used in
these items is not dishwasher-proof.
As a result, wooden handles could be
loosened after being washed in the
dishwasher.
– Craft items, antiques, valuable vases
and decorative glassware are also
not suitable for dishwashers.
– Plastic items which are not heat
resistant may become deformed.
– Copper, brass, tin and aluminum
items may discolour or become dull.
– Colours painted over a glaze may
fade after a number of washes.
– Delicate glassware and glassware
containing lead crystal may become
cloudy over time.
Please note
Silverware
previously cleaned with a
silver polish
may still be damp or
spotted at the end of a program where
water has not run off smoothly. It may
need to be rubbed dry with a soft cloth.
Silver which has been in contact with
foods containing sulphur can discolour.
These include egg yolk, onions,
mayonnaise, mustard, pulses, fish, and
marinades.
Aluminum components (e.g.
ventilation hood grease filters) must
not be cleaned in the dishwasher
with caustic alkaline commercial or
industrial cleaning agents.
These may damage the material. In
extreme cases, they can cause a
severe explosive chemical reaction
(such as an explosive oxyhydrogen
gas reaction).
Useful tip:
When purchasing dishes
and cutlery, make sure they are
dishwasher-safe.
Glass care
– Clouding may occur on glasses after
frequent washing. When washing
delicate glassware in the dishwasher,
ensure that only a special glass-care
program with very low temperatures
is selected (see Program overview).
This will reduce the risk of clouding.
– Purchase glassware which is
dishwasher safe (e.g. Riedel
glassware).
– Use detergents with glass protective
additives.
