These may damage the material.

washer-safe.
Glass care
– Clouding may occur on glasses after
fr
equent washing. If delicate glass‐
ware is washed in the dishwasher,
ensure that only very low tempera‐
tures are used (see program chart), or
a special glass-care program is used
(depending on model). This will re‐
duce the risk of clouding.
– Purchase glassware which is dish‐
washer
-safe (e.g., Riedel glassware).
– Use detergents with glass protective
additives (e.g., Miele CareCollection
tabs).
