WARNING! 
  Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot 
tip over or obstruct the rotation of the spray arms during the washing 
cycle. 
  Do not place very small objects in the baskets as these could fall and 
obstruct the spray arms or the wash pump. 
  Containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots should always be 
loaded with the opening facing downwards and with any cavities at 
an angle, to allow the water to drain out. 
  Do not stack dishes or place them in such a way that they cover one 
other. 
  Do  not place  glasses  too close together because they  may knock 
against each other and break, or there might be staining at the point 
where they touch. 
MAKE SURE that the items being washed are dishwasher-safe. 
Items which are not dishwasher-safe: 
  Wooden dishes, pots or pans: these may be damaged by the high 
washing temperatures. 
  Handcrafted  items:  these  are  rarely  suitable  for  washing  in  a 
dishwasher.  The  relatively  high  water  temperatures  and  the 
detergents used may damage them. 
  Plastic dishes: heat resistant plastic dishes must be washed in the 
upper basket. 
  Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass: these tend to 
stain. 
  Aluminium  dishes: items  made  of  anodised aluminium  may  lose 
their colour. 
  Silverware: silver items may stain. 
  Glass  and  crystal:  in  general,  glass  and  crystal  objects  can  be 
washed  in  the  dishwasher.  However,  certain  types  of  glass  and 
crystal  may  become  dull  and  lose  their  clearness  after  many 
washings. Therefore, for these items we recommend using the least 
aggressive program available. 
  Decorated items: the decorated objects available on the market are 
generally able to withstand washing in the dishwasher, although the 
colours may fade after many washes. If in doubt as to the fastness 
of the colours, it is advisable to wash just a few items at a time for 
approximately one month.
