Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for several reasons. Some materials cannot
withstand high heat, others can be damaged by dishwasher detergent.
Exercise caution with, for example, handmade items, fragile decoration, crystal/glassware, silver,
copper, tin, aluminium, wood and plastic. Look for the "Dishwasher safe" marking.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the items feel rough) should not be washed in a
dishwasher.
Crystal/Glass
Wash fragile items made of crystal/glass using the gentle dishwashing program Crystal glass.
Remember to use a small amount of detergent and to place items so that they do not touch each
other during the wash.
Drying is faster and a better result is achieved if you use rinse aid. You will also achieve a better
dishwashing result with clear and spotless dishes.
Hand-painted glassware, as well as antique and very fragile items, should not be washed in a
dishwasher.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into contact, as the silver can become discoloured.
In order to avoid marks and tarnishing, separate dishes made from different metals, such as silver,
stainless steel and aluminium.
Aluminium
Aluminium can lose its shine if washed in a dishwasher. However, good quality aluminium pans can
be washed in a dishwasher, even if some of the shine will be lost.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In such cases, the handles may loosen.
Loading affects the results
Load the dishes carefully to ensure the best washing and drying results with the lowest possible
energy and water consumption. Give your dishwasher the best chance to reach and clean all surfaces,
as well as to dry the dishes as thoroughly as possible.
•
All dirty surfaces should face inwards and downwards!
•
Dishes should not be placed in or on each other.
•
Angle dishes with hollows, such as cups, so that the rinse water will run off. This is also important
for plastic items.
•
Make sure small items cannot fall through the dishwasher basket; place them in the cutlery
basket.
NOTE!
Check that the spray arms can rotate freely.
