Using cutlery with a low-
quality coating
Do not empty your dishwasher immediately after
washing. Open the door slightly so that the steam can
escape. Begin unloading the dishwasher only once the
dishes are barely warm to the touch. Empty the low
basket first. This prevents water form dropping off
dishes in the upper basket.
In short programmes the washing temperature is lower.
This also lowers cleaning performance. Choose a
programme with a long washing time.
Water drainage is more difficult with these items.
Cutlery or dishes of this type are not suitable for
washing in the dishwasher.
