Improper loading
Stains will not affect dishwasher
perfor-
mance and can gradually fade over time.
Regular use of Rinse-Wash Later reduces
the chance of staining. If air in the dish-
washer is heated during the "dry" portion of
the cycle, stains may fade slower than if the
Air Dry option is selected.
Run a Rinse-Wash Later cycle at least once
or twice a day until a full load is accumulated.
Load dishes and glasses so they are stable
and do not strike together from washing
action. Moving racks in and out slowly will
also minimize chipping.
NOTE: Some types of china and glassware
are too delicate for automatic dishwashing
and should be hand washed; for example:
antiques, feather-edged
crystal, and similar
items.
