Caring for your dinnerware

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

Cutlery and silverware

All cutlery and silverware should be rinsed immediately after use to prevent tarnishing caused by some foods. The Rinse wash programme 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 dishwasher and hand dry it immediately after the programme has finished.

Aluminium

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

Other metals

Iron and cast iron items 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 (become opaque). You may prefer to wash these items by hand.

Plastic

Some plastic may change shape or colour with hot water. Check the 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 or 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 by machine washing. If in doubt, wash glued items by hand.

Never put highly absorbent materials, such as sponges and towels in your dishwasher.

Do not put dishes or cutlery that have been soiled by tobacco ash, wax, lubricating grease or paint in your dishwasher.
