How To Load The Dishwasher - Zanussi CDW 200 Use & Care Manual

How to load the dishwasher

The illustration shows the machine loaded with five stan-
dard place settings. Your own dishes are not likely to be
identical to this load, but if you follow the advice below
we are sure you will be pleased with the results.
Always place glasses, cups and bowls upside down.
Incline deep dishes (soup plates etc.) so that the
water can run off when drying.
Make sure that the dishes do not rest against each
other. This is particularly important in regard to the
cutlery basket - nested spoons, etc. simply cannot
be properly washed. Make sure that the water can
get at all the soiled surfaces.
Make sure that cutlery with slender handles and
other items do not protrude through the openings
in the basket and prevent the spray arm from
rotating.
Never put silver and stainless steel objects together.
When these metals come into contact with each other
a chemical reaction occurs which stains the silver.
China with a pattern applied on top of the glaze
may not be suitable for machine washing as the
colours may fade and lose their lustre. The same
applies to cutlery with wooden or plastic handles.
Always buy articles that are machine washable in
future.
Not all plastic articles are machine washable. If you
are in doubt as to whether your plasticware can be
washed in the machine, we suggest you check by
washing a single item or else wash them by hand.
Aluminium becomes dull and tarnished when
machine washed. The machine gets it clean, but
at the expense of its appearance.
When washing delicate items, select the lower wash
temperature.
Substances such as ketchup containing strong
colouring agents can cause temporary discoloration
in the machine.
