Loading the Dishwasher
First of all.
Before placing the dishes in the racks, remove the largest
scraps of food left over on your plates; you will thus avoid
blocking the filter, which would reduce the efficacy of the
wash.
If the saucepans and frying pans are very dirty, allow them to
soak before being washed. To make it easier to load your
dishes, pull the racks out.
What goes into the lower rack?
We recommend you place the most difficult dishes to wash
into the lower rack: saucepans, lids, soup dishes and plates,
but also: mugs, cups and glasses. (see photos for load
examples).
• Serving dishes and large lids: place them on the sides
of the rack.
• Saucepans, salad bowls: must always be placed upside
down.
•Very deep dishes: place them obliquely, thus allowing water
to run down them and cleaning them better.
•Glasses and cups: position them as indicated in the figu-
re.
The cutlery basket may be split into two parts by pulling out
the handle (see figures A and B). When you only have little
cutlery to wash, you can use just half the basket.
This basket is equipped with two removable grids: insert the
cutlery one by one into the slots, with the handles at the
bottom. Knives and utensils with sharp blades or tips should
be positioned with the sharp parts at the bottom.
Position them so that they don't touch.
In this specific model, the cutlery basket is fitted with two
detachable side compartments, as shown in figure A1 , which
can be hooked on either to the upper or lower rack, as
required.
What goes into the upper rack?
Place delicate and lightweight dishes in the upper rack:
glasses, tea cups and coffee cups, saucers - but plates too -
shallow salad bowls, slightly dirty frying pans and shallow
pans (the photo illustrates a few examples).
Position lightweight dishes in such a way as to avoid their
being moved by the spray of water.
The appliance can also be equipped with one or two tip-up
compartments onto which you can place mugs and cups, as
well as long sharp knives and serving cutlery.
After loading the dishes, remember to check that the blades
on the sprayer arms can turn freely without knocking against
any dishes.
How to adjust the Upper rack
The top rack can be adjusted using the two rack heights (top
and bottom).
