What you can leave on dishes.

And what you shouldn’t.

If this is your first dishwasher, or if you’re replacing a much older model, you may wonder how much preparation your dishes need. Actually very little. Pre-rinsing of normal food soils is not necessary. With common sense and a little practice you’ll soon know what foods to remove. Here are some guidelines:

1.Scrape off bones, seeds, stins, toothpicks and other hard solids. It is also best to remove hard shelled vegetables, meat trimmings, leafy vegetables and crusts. Remove excessive quantities of oil or grease.

2.Remove large quantities of any

food. Your dishwasher has a built-in soft food disposer that pulverizes soft food bits and flushes them away. It can handle small amounts of soft foods, but large amounts will be difficult to handle.

3.Try to remove food scraps and place dishes in dishwasher before soil has a chance to dry and become hard. Dishes with dried-on soil are more difficult to wash and may not come clean in the NORMAL WASH cycle. Remember to use your RINSE HOLD cycle for small “holding” loads.

Note: The foods mentioned above are for examples only. Other foods not mentioned may also need to be removed from your dishes. You may also want to consider removing foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice and other fds that can cause discoloration of stainless steel if allowed to remain on dishes for a long period of time.

When using the Pm& PANS cycle, less preparation is required before loading. The P~S & PANS cycle can wash heavily-soiled dishes. Items with burned-on and baked-on soils may not come clean. And the dishwasher cannot remove burn marks or restore fading caused by overheating during cooking.
