Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be
for several reasons. Some materials cannot withstand
high temperatures, others can be damaged by
dishwasher detergent.
Fragile decoration
Porcelain with decoration on top of the glazing (the
items feel rough) should not be washed in a
dishwasher.
Crystal / Glass
Position items so that they do not touch each other
during the wash. Use the lowest possible wash
temperature and the shortest possible program.
Select Short dry. Antique and very fragile items should
not be washed in a dishwasher.
Glass washed in a dishwasher at high temperatures
can gradually develop a gray film that cannot be
removed. Wash fragile glasses at a low temperature
and with a small amount of detergent.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come into
contact, as the silver can become discolored.
Cutlery with glued handles
Some types of glue are not dishwasher safe. In such
cases, the handles may loosen.
Wood
Wooden items should only be washed in a dishwasher
if marked dishwasher safe.
Aluminum
Aluminum can lose its shine if washed in a
dishwasher. However, good quality aluminum pans
can be washed in a dishwasher, even if some of the
shine will be lost.
Plastic items
Avoid washing plastic items that cannot withstand
high temperatures.
