this section. Some items are not dishwasher safe and should be hand washed;
others require special loading.

your water may cause the aluminum to darken or spot. This can usually be
removed with a soap-filled steel wool pad.

fade or spot. Hand wash these utensils. Position fragile glassware so that

wash cycle.

Non-stick Coatings: Apply a light coating of vegetable oil to non-stick sur-
faces after drying.

Loading the Dishwasher

Do not pre-wash items with loosely attached soiling. Remove all food parti-
cles, bones, toothpicks and excessive grease. Items having burned-on, baked-
on or starchy soils may require some pretreatment. Refer to the Dishware
Materials section for more information about dishware suitability.
Load only dishwasher safe items. Load dishes in the dishwasher racks so the
insides of bowls, pots and pans are facing the spray arms. Avoid nesting and
contact points between dishes. Separate items of dissimilar metals.
