mendit.Theplatescanonlybeplacedinadishwasher
wherethetemperatureisnogreaterthan131°F/55ºC.
Ifthetemperatureisanyhotterthanthis,theplateswill

Reasonsforlowhumiditylevel:
• aircirculationisveryhigh(airisfullyexchangedse

workfromscratch)
• insulationofhome(seeaircirculation)
• openspacewithhighceilings(notonlythefootageof
