Caring for your dinnerware

The combination of high temperatures and dishwasher detergent may cause damage to some

items if they are washed in the DishDraweP_ Remember, if in any doubt about any aspect
concerning items washed in the DishDrawer _'_,follow the instructions from the manufacturer of
the items, or wash the item by hang

Cutlery & silverware

All cutlery and silverware should be rinsed immediately after use to prevent tarnishing caused

by some foods. The Rinse wash programme is useful for this_ Silver items should not come into
contact with stainless steel, eg other cut[ery_ Mixing these items can cause staining_ Remove

silver cutlery from the DishDrawer _'_and hand dry it immediately after the programme has
finisheG

Aluminium

Aiuminium can be dulled by dishwasher detergent. The degree of change depends on the
quality of the product

Other metals

Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items. Copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.
Woodware

Wooden items are generally sensitive to heat and water. Regular use in the @shwasher may
cause deterioration over time. If in doubt, wash by hang

Glassware

Most everyday gBssware is dishwasher safe. Crystal, very fine and antique gBsware may etch
that is, become opaque. You may prefer to wash these items by hand.

Plastic

Some pBtic may change shape or co[our with hot water. Check manufacturer's instructions
about washing plastic items. Washable plastic items should be weighed down so they do not

flip over and fill with water or fall through the base rack during the wash. Use the multi-purpose
dip to hold pBtic items in place.

Decorated items

Most modem china patterns are dishwasher safe. Antique items, those with a pattern painted
over the glaze, gold rims or hand painted china may be more sensitive to machine washing. If in
doubt, wash by hand.

Glued items
Certain adhesives are softened or dissolved in machine washing. If in doubt, wash by hand.

If the DishDraweP _is not going to be used for some time, we recommend you leave the

DishDraweP _dean and empty. Leave the drawers ajar to allow air to circulate. Turn off both the

power and water supply to the DishDrawer_'L

Backing and accessories

Cudery basket

To reduce the risk of injury, we recommend loading knives and sharp utensils with handles
facing up,

Mix spoons, knives and forks within each section to stop cutlery nesting together and to ensure
the water circulates freely,

Keep stainless steel from touching silver cutlery to avoid staining,

RemovaNe small items container

Small, light items like baby bottle teats are best placed into the small items container to prevent
them from being displaced dudng the wash.

Backing and accessories

Removable small items container
To optim[se the cutlery space within the basket, the small items container can be placed
elsewhere on the base rack. If laid flat, make sure the solid plastic side is facing up.

If you place a fully laden small items container under the adjustable racks, it is best to leave the

rack space directly above the container empty: there may not be enough water reaching items
that are placed there.

RemovabJe tabJet tray

If you are using dishwasher tablets, place them on the removable tablet tray, as shown.

See also 'Using tablets' for more information.
We do not recommend using tablets in USA and Canada models. The pre-wash cycle in these

models would dissolve the tablet, reducing the cleaning power left for the main wash.
