26 SAFETY
Attention:
You will get longer-lasting pleasure from your
cutlery and dishwasher if you follow these tips:
■ After using the cutlery – especially
knives – rinse it under the tap. You hereby
prevent it being damaged by food remains
containing salt and acid.
■ Always place knives, forks and spoons in
the dishwasher with the handle
downwards.
■ Do not put chromium nickel steel cutlery
and chromium steel cutlery together in the
dishwasher. Otherwise, you run the risk of
rust contamination.
■ Take the cutlery out of the dishwasher
immediately after the rinsing programme
and dry it with a cloth. Never leave damp
cutlery in the dishwasher.
■ Never put silver and stainless steel cutlery
in one basket together.
■ Silver cutlery should never be allowed to
come into contact with aluminium, since
this can damage the silver.
■ Plastic pan handles can become dull.
Furthermore…
■ Plastic objects must be heat-resistant.
■ Aluminium pans, kitchenware and various
types of glassware may become
discoloured after being washed several
times in the dishwasher. Certain sorts of
decoration may lose their colour.
■ Watch out for the indication "Suitable for
the dishwasher" in the case of glazed
pottery.
■ When you buy new tableware, look for
forms which are suitable for the
dishwasher: such as straight, smooth
sides, large openings, cavities which are
not too deep, dishwasher-proof decoration,
cutlery and earthenware.
