Loading The Dishwasher; Notes - Miele G 6994 Operating Instructions Manual

Notes

Remove coarse food residues from
crockery.
There is no need to rinse items under
running water.

Do not wash items soiled with
ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease or
paint in the dishwasher. Ash does
not dissolve and is distributed in the
wash cabinet. Wax, sand, lubricating
grease and paint cause damage to
the dishwasher.
Crockery can be loaded anywhere in
the baskets, but the following notes
should be observed:
– Do not place crockery and cutlery
inside other pieces where they may
be concealed.
– Load the crockery so that water can
access all surfaces. This ensures that
they get properly cleaned.
– Make sure that all items are securely
positioned.
– Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pans, etc. must be inverted in the
basket.
– Tall, narrow, hollow items, e.g.
champagne glasses, should be
placed in the centre of the basket to
ensure better water coverage.
– Wide based items should be placed
at an angle so that water can run off
them freely.

Loading the dishwasher

– The spray arms must not be blocked
by items which are too tall or hang
through the baskets. If in doubt, test
for free movement by manually
rotating the spray arms.
– Make sure that small items cannot
fall through the holders in the
baskets.
Small items, e.g. lids, should
therefore be placed in the cutlery tray
or cutlery basket (depending on
model).
Some foodstuffs may contain natural
dyes, e.g. carrots, tomatoes or
tomato sauce. Plastic items in the
dishwasher may discolour if large
quantities of these foodstuffs find
their way into the dishwasher on the
crockery. The stability of plastic
items is not affected by this
discolouration.
Cleaning silver cutlery in the
dishwasher may also cause plastic
items to discolour.
