Preparing to Wash Dishes:
For the best results, practice the following before you put dishware in the
dishwasher:
→ Discard big chunks of food from the plate before loading.
→ Remove sticky foods and loosen burned-on foods before loading.
→ Empty out liquids, juice, soup, soda, coffee or tea from glasses and cups before
loading.
→ Rinse off acid based liquids, vinegar or lemon juice right away. Failure to do so
may cause discoloration to plates, food containers or internal cabinet.
Always check manufacturer's recommendations before you start washing items.
Tips to avoid stains and films:
The following suggestions are recommended to prevent stains and films on dishware
and utensils items:
→ You must rinse all dishware, silverware, glassware and food containers
immediately after use. Some citric based food products, coffee, tea and iron deposits
in water can cause yellow or brown film to form on the inside surface if left on for a
long time or if not rinsed immediately.
→ You must check your water hardness to see whether you need to use more or less
detergent to wash. If water is extremely hard, then it may cause stains on items.
You may need to use a water softener.
→ Do not overload the dishwasher.
→ Avoid improper loading.
→ Be sure to use the recommended water temperature to wash dishware.
→ Do not use too little detergent.
→ Do not use old or damp powder detergent.
→ Do not load aluminum utensils improperly. Aluminum utensils can cause gray or
black marks to appear on porcelain utensils if they touch during wash cycle.
