12Loading cutlery and dishes

•Plastic items and pans with non stick coatings have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items.

•Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery and dishes

are not suitable:

•Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother- of-pearls handles.

•Plastic items that are not heat resistant.

•Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant.

•Bonded cutlery items or dishes.

•Pewter or copper items.

•Lead crystal glass.

•Steel items prone to rusting.

•Wooden platters.

•Items made from synthetics fibres.

are of limited suitability:

•Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specially marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.

•Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently.

•Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing: Residues, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore always clean left-overs from silver immedi- ately, if it is not to be washed straight after use.
