Important information on loading the dishwasher
Make sure that when the glasses are placed in the dishwasher, there is a sufficient distance between the glasses so that they do not touch each other or with other objects. If possible, place the glasses in the upper compartment of the dishwasher and use a glass holder if it is available. Dieser schützt die Gläser vor Verrutschen während des Spülvorgangs. Avoid any Contact Between the glasses and metal objects or other utensils to prevent damage.
Für besonders hohe Gläser, die nicht in das obere Fach passen, können diese vorsichtig in das untere Fach eingeräumt werden, wenn Ihr Gerät über ein spezielles Gläserprogramm verfügt. Otherwise they should be washed better by hand.
dosage

Water fermentation
The glass can attack too soft. Therefore, the water hardening system should be tailored to the water hardness in your household, ideally to a value of 3-4 ° dH (degree German hardness). Make sure that there is enough dishwasher salt.

steam
After the rinsing process, open the door of the dishwasher to dissipate the escaping steam. This prevents the moisture from damaging the glass surface and favors glass corrosion.
Leftover food and fruit juices
If the glasses are dirty with remains of food or fruit acid (e.g. by juice), it is advisable to clean them first before they come into the dishwasher. Particularly Red Wine leaves residues that can attack the glass if you stay on it for too long.
Avoiding aluminumContact
Never rinse glasses and aluminum objects (e.g. garlic presses or pots with aluminum handles), as this can lead to chemical reactions and rapid corrosion of the glass.
Microfiber cloths
For polishing, please use microfiber cloths to clean the surface gently and strip-free. Wash them at 60 ° C to kill germs. Use odor -neutral soap and do without fabric softener because it can leave a film on the glass surface. Microfiber towels should not be dried in the dryer.
