COMMENTS AND / OR SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
Items joined by adhesives, whether plastic, wood, bone,
steel, copper or tin, etc. may be loosened.
Colored anodized aluminum may fade over time. Minerals in the
water may cause spotting or darkening of aluminum.
Handles may separate.
It is highly recommended however that "on-glaze" (china with decora-
tion on top of glaze), hand painted and gold or platinum trimmed, or
antique china or stoneware be hand washed. If there is any doubt,
please check with the manufacturer of your set or test by washing one
piece with each load for a month and comparing this piece with the
rest of the set to determine if there has been any fading or discolora-
tion.
Decorated crystal, those hand painted, "on-glaze" or metal trimmed,
may discolor, fade, or spot. It is recommended that these be hand
washed. Also, fragile glassware is highly breakable. BE SURE to set the
pieces so that they do not topple during washing or shift position or
knock against other pieces.
Milk glass may yellow. Some glass may appear hazy. This is referred to as
etching when it is permanent. See Page 9, Water Hardness.
After the dry cycle, the nonstick coating should be covered with a light
coating of vegetable oil.
Iron will rust. Wash by hand and dry immediately.
Pewter will tarnish. Wash by hand and dry immediately.
Only wash "dishwasher safe" plastic items.
Do not let stainless steel items contact copper or sterling silver or
silver plate items.
Do not allow to come in contact with stainless steel or copper items.
Tin will rust. Wash by hand and dry immediately.
Wooden bowls, wooden utensils and wood handled utensils can warp,
crack or lose their finish.
