Loading the dishwasher Items not recommended for dishwashing - Cutlery with wooden handles - Wooden cutting boards - Glued items such as old knives with handles glued together around the shank of the blade - Handmade craft items, antique, metal trimmed or decorative glassware - Plastic items that are not heat resistant - Copper, brass, tin or aluminum - Dishes with color painted over the glaze. These dishes may fade over time - Fine glassware and crystal items should only be washed using the "China & Crystal" program*. Otherwise clouding or etching may occur after frequent washing. - Cast iron pots and pans * depending on model If unsure whether your china and crystal are dishwasher safe, please check with the manufacturer. The China & Crystal program*, although extremely gentle and thorough can cause the china and crystal to "wear" if they are not dishwasher safe. Glassware: - There are no standard guidelines for washing glassware, when in doubt wash by hand. - When purchasing new dishes, glasses and cutlery, make sure they are dishwasher safe. Only wash items marked "dishwasher safe" in the dishwasher. - If fine glassware is washed in the dishwasher select the "China & Crystal" program*. This will reduce the risk of clouding. Silver and aluminum: - Silver or aluminum items may tarnish. - Silverware previously cleaned with a silver polish may be damp or spotted at the end of a program where water has adhered to the polish. This can be rubbed off with a soft, dry cloth. Silver that has been cleaned in an immersion dip is usually dry at the end of a program, but may tarnish. - If left to dry, foods containing sulfur can discolor silver. These include egg yolk, onions, mayonnaise, mustard, fish and marinades. - Silverware may tarnish or pit if washed next to stainless steel. Leave space between these metals. - Clean aluminum items, e.g. grease filters, with domestic dishwasher detergent only. 21
