Glassware
Most glassware is dishwasher safe. We do not
recommend washing crystal items in the
dishwasher, as crystal is not dishwasher safe.
Pots and Saucepans
í Pots and saucepans can be washed in the
dishwasher. Scrape off food scraps and put
items in the baskets upside-down.
í Stainless steel can be washed in the
dishwasher.
í As when hand washed, aluminium is dulled
by being washed in the dishwasher.
Silverware
í All silverware should be rinsed immediately
after use to prevent discolouration caused by
some foods.
The “Prewash” programme is useful for this
situation.
í Old silverware and hollow handle knives with
adhesives securing the handles should be
washed by hand.
GLASSWARE, POTS AND SILVERWARE
Cutlery
í Stainless steel and silver should not be
allowed to come into contact with each
other, as this can stain the silver.
í Remove sterling and silver plated cutlery
from the dishwasher and hand dry it
immediately after the programme has
finished.
í Wooden, bone and plastic handles can be
sensitive to higher water temperatures. The
appearance of these items may change over
time if washed in the dishwasher.
Decorated China and Tableware
í Most current china patterns are dishwasher
safe. However, we advise checking with their
manufacturer.
í Older items with the design over the glaze,
ie. gold rims and hand-painted China may be
more sensitive to machine washing. If in
doubt, wash these items by hand.
Woodware
Generally wooden items are sensitive to heat
and water.
Regular use in the diswasher may alter their
appearence. We suggest you wash wooden
items by hand.
Remember, if in doubt about any aspect
concerning materials washed in the dishwasher,
follow manufacturer's instructions or wash the
item by hand.
