CARING FOR YOUR DINNERWARE

The combination of high temperatures and dishwasher detergent may cause damage to some items if they are washed in the DishDrawer®. Remember, if in any doubt about any aspect concerning items washed in the DishDrawer®, follow the instructions from the manufacturer of the items, or wash the item by hand.

Cutlery & Silverware

All cutlery and silverware should be rinsed immediately after use to prevent tarnishing caused by some foods. The Rinse wash program is useful for this. Silver items should not come into contact with stainless steel, for example other cutlery. Mixing these items can cause staining. Remove silver cutlery from the DishDrawer® and hand dry

it immediately after the program has finished.

Aluminum

Aluminium can be dulled by dishwasher detergent. The degree of change depends on the quality of the product.

Other Metals

Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items. Copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.

Woodware

Wooden items are generally sensitive to heat and water. Regular use in the dishwasher may cause deterioration over time. If in doubt, wash by hand.

Glassware

Most everyday glassware is dishwasher safe. Crystal, very fine and antique glassware may etch i.e. become opaque. You may prefer to wash these items by hand.

Plastic

Some plastic may change shape or color with hot water. Check manufacturer’s instructions about washing plastic items. Washable plastic items should be weighed down so they do not flip over and fill with water or fall through the basket during the wash.

Decorated Items

Most modern china patterns are Dishwasher safe. Antique items, those with a pattern painted over the glaze, gold rims or hand painted china may be more sensitive to machine washing. If in doubt wash these items by hand.

Glued Items

Certain adhesives are softened or dissolved in machine washing. If in doubt, wash glued items by hand.

VACATION TIME

If the DishDrawer® is not going to be used for some time, we recommend you ensure the baskets are empty. Leave the inside of the DishDrawer® clean. Leave the drawers ajar to allow air to circulate. Turn off both the power and water supply to the DishDrawer®.

DD124, DD224 specifications

DCS DD224 and DCS DD124 are advanced destroyers designed to meet modern naval warfare requirements. These vessels are built for high-performance operations and are equipped with a myriad of cutting-edge technologies to enhance their combat capabilities.

One of the standout features of the DCS DD224 and DD124 is their stealth technology. These destroyers are designed with a low radar cross-section, making them harder to detect by enemy radar systems. This stealth capability is crucial for conducting surprise attacks and naval maneuvering in contested waters.

Both destroyers are equipped with state-of-the-art weapon systems, including vertical launch systems capable of firing a range of missiles, such as anti-ship, air defense, and land-attack missiles. The multi-role capability of these vessels makes them suitable for various mission profiles, from anti-surface warfare to anti-air operations and even humanitarian assistance.

The sensor suite of DCS DD224 and DD124 includes advanced radar systems, such as phased-array radars that provide 360-degree coverage. These radar systems offer tracking and targeting capabilities for aerial threats, surface vessels, and submarines. Additionally, the ships are equipped with an integrated combat management system, which enables efficient decision-making and coordination among various onboard systems.

To enhance their operational efficiency, both destroyers are powered by combined diesel and gas (CODAG) propulsion systems. This configuration provides a good balance between speed and fuel efficiency, allowing them to reach high speeds of up to 30 knots. The propulsion system is designed for endurance, enabling long-distance missions without frequent refueling.

Furthermore, the DCS DD224 and DD124 feature advanced communication systems that ensure seamless connectivity with other naval assets. This capability is critical for modern naval operations, allowing for real-time information sharing and coordination during joint exercises or combat scenarios.

The onboard living conditions for the crew are also designed with comfort in mind, featuring modern amenities that help reduce fatigue during extended deployments. Overall, the DCS DD224 and DD124 represent a significant advancement in naval destroyer design, integrating technology, versatility, and operational effectiveness to meet the challenges of contemporary maritime warfare.
