Loading cutlery and dishes Sponges, cleaning cloths and any other objects that can absorb water must not be washed in the dishwasher. Plastic and Teflon-coated dishes and pans tend to retain water droplets. These dishes and pans therefore do not dry as well as those made of china and stainless steel.
Loading cutlery Warning: Because of the risk of injury sharp knives and other items of cutlery with sharp edges must be laid in the cutlery rack or in the upper basket Place knives, small spoons and small forks in the cutlery tray which is in the upper basket.

Concentrated detergents Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet or powder form. Using 50°C dishwashing cycles in conjunction with these concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these dish- washing cycles are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in concentrated detergents.
