Note
Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers. Spilt rinse
aid may result in excessive foam formation in the next
rinse cycle. Therefore, remove any spilt rinse aid with a
cloth.
Not suitable for the dishwasher
The following should not be cleaned
in the dishwasher:
Wooden cutlery and utensils – these will leach out
and become unsightly; even the utilised stickers are
not suitable for the temperatures which occur.
Sensitive ornamental glasses, craft utensil and
vases, special antique or irretrievable utensils.
These ornaments are not dishwasher-proof.
Plastic parts sensitive to hot water.
Copper and tin utensils.
Utensils which are soiled with ash, wax, lubricating
grease or ink.
Absorbent materials such as sponges and cloths.
Aluminium and silver parts have a tendency to
discolour and fade during the wash cycle. Even some
types of glass (e.g. crystal glass objects) may turn
cloudy after many wash cycles.
Recommendation:
In future buy utensils which are identified as
dishwasher-proof.
Damage to glassware and other
dishes
Possible causes:
type of glass or manufacturing process
chemical composition of detergent
water temperature and duration of dishwasher
programme.
Suggested remedy:
Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been
marked ’dishwasher–proof’ by the manufacturer.
Use a mild detergent that is described as ’kind to
dishes’. If necessary, seek further information from
detergent manufacturers.
Select a programme with as low a temperature and
as short a duration as possible.
To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the
dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme
has ended.
