Things To Watch Out For - Pelgrim GVW835E Notice D'utilisation

Things to watch out for

Before you place kitchenware in the machine
First remove food remains. You thereby
avoid blockages.
First soak any pots/pans that are very dirty.
Environmental tips
Save your dirty dishes up and only wash them
when both baskets are completely full.
Always select the most suitable
programme, depending on how dirty your
dishes are.
Make no use, or as little use as possible, of
the pre-rinse programme.
If possible, connect the machine to a hot-
water plant with a maximum temperature of
60 °C.
China ware
Not suitable:
All sorts of china ware with an onglaze
decoration or edge which you can see and
feel. Also consider the shape of the china
ware. Bell-shaped cups break more easily
than straight-sided cups. Under no
circumstances should you put porous
earthenware in your dishwasher.
Suitable:
China ware fired at a temperature of 700/800 °C.
Do not use too much rinse-aid in this case, to
avoid any damage. Only white or single-colour
china ware which is fired at a temperature of
1200/1300 °C is completely dishwasher proof.
Glass
Not suitable:
Crystal or hand-blown glassware; glass on
which the decoration has been burnt in;
glassware with a gold edging.
Suitable:
All other glass.
Cutlery
Not suitable:
Cutlery with a wooden, earthenware or china-
ware handle. There is a big risk of cracks. In
fact, there is a big risk of cracks for all wooden
objects washed in a dishwasher. Cutlery made
of chromium steel is not very suitable for
washing in the dishwasher. In the case of this
cutlery, there is a risk of corrosion (rust).
Suitable:
Cutlery made of chromium nickel steel 18/10.
This high-quality cutlery is rustproof and acid-
resistant. However, the blade of a knife may
be made of a different material. Watch out for
this. Silver or silver-plated cutlery is also
dishwasher proof. But in this case the rinse-
aid used must not contain any citric acid,
since this damages the silver. Moreover,
regular washing in the dishwasher may result
in the silver becoming scratched.
