Pleje og vedligeholdelse
Cromargan Protect Material
Your WMF Virginia cutlery is made from Cromargan Protect stainless steel, a material known for its exceptional scratch resistance. This special thermochemical finishing process hardens the surface, ensuring the cutlery remains like new for many years, even with intensive daily use. It is rust-free, dimensionally stable, sanitary, and acid-resistant.

Rengøring af opvaskemaskine
The entire cutlery set is dishwasher safe. To maintain its pristine condition:
- Rinse off food residues before placing in the dishwasher.
- Load cutlery with handles facing down in the basket to ensure thorough cleaning.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to acidic foods or strong detergents.
- Remove cutlery promptly after the wash cycle and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots, especially in areas with hard water.
Knife Care
The table knives feature serrated blades made from special blade steel. While robust, proper care helps maintain their sharpness:
- Avoid cutting on hard surfaces like ceramic or glass plates.
- Do not use knives for tasks they are not designed for, such as opening cans.
- If hand washing, use a non-abrasive sponge.

Fejlfinding
Vandpletter eller striber
If water spots or streaks appear after dishwashing, this is often due to hard water or insufficient drying. To resolve:
- Ensure your dishwasher's rinse aid dispenser is filled.
- Increase the rinse aid setting if possible.
- Manually dry cutlery immediately after the wash cycle with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Dullness or Discoloration
While Cromargan Protect is highly resistant, prolonged contact with highly acidic foods (e.g., lemon juice, vinegar) or certain aggressive detergents can potentially cause minor discoloration over time. To prevent:
- Rinse cutlery promptly after use.
- Use recommended dishwasher detergents and avoid harsh chemicals.
- For minor dullness, a stainless steel polish designed for cutlery can restore shine.
