Smeg ST8246U Instruction Manual page 27

MAKE SURE that the items being washed are dishwasher-safe.
Items which are not dishwasher-safe:
• Wooden dishes, pots or pans: these may be damaged by the high washing
temperatures.
• Handcrafted i tems: these a re r arely suitable for washing in a d ishwasher.
The relatively high water temperatures and the detergents used may damage
them.
• Lightweight objects: place lightweight objects in the upper rack where the
water pressure is lower.
• Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass: these tend to stain.
• Aluminum dishes: items made from anodized aluminum may lose their col-
or.
• Silverware: silver items may stain.
• Glass and crystal: in general, glass and crystal objects can be washed in the
dishwasher. However, certain types of glass and crystal may become dull and
lose their clearness after many washings. Therefore, for these items we recom-
mend using the least aggressive program available (see "Description of con-
trols" manual).
• Decorated items: the decorated objects available on the market are generally
able t o withstand washing in t he d ishwasher, although t he c olors may fade
after a great many washes. If in doubt as to the fastness of the colors, it is advis-
able to wash just a few items at a time for approximately one month.
