PREPARING DISHES FOR

necessary.

toothpicks and other hard soils.
• Remove hard shelled vegetables,
meat trimmings, leafy vegetables, and
excessive amounts of oil or grease.
• Remove foods with high acid content—
they can discolor stainless steel.
• Remove large quantities of any food.
• When using the POTS PANS cycle, less
preparation is required. This cycle can
wash heavily-soiled dishes and remove
dried-on and baked-on soils from pots,
pans and casseroles. However, items
with burned-on soils may not come
clean.
