Miele recommends: ­ Wash delicate glassware using the "Economy" program or the "China & Crystal" program to reduce the risk of clouding. ­ There are no standard guidelines for washing glassware but, when in doubt wash by hand. ­ When purchasing new dishes and cutlery, make sure they are dishwasher safe. ­ If crystal or delicate glasses will be washed frequently, connect the dishwasher to cold, rather than hot water. 29 Operating the dishwasher Operating the dishwasher Adding detergent Use only powdered detergents or tablets formulated for residential dishwashers.
