loading your dishwasher
Properly placing your dishes into the dishwasher has a positive effect on the energy consumption and the washing and drying
performance.
The lower basket can be loaded with large items such as pots with long handles, pans, lids, plates, salad bowls and the cutlery basket.
The upper basket is for cups and saucers, mugs, small bowls and glasses. Wine glasses and long-stem glasses must be placed against
the edge of the basket, rack or glass supporter wire and not against other items. Long, small cooking
utensils, such as wooden spoons, should be placed lying down in the middle of the upper basket.
The cutlery basket is designed for cutlery. Sharp items of cutlery, such as knives and forks should be placed with their sharp points
facing down. Place the cutlery piece by piece in a compartent to ensure the spray arms can reach every part.
WARNING: place your dishes into your dishwasher in a way that they will not prevent the upper and
lower spray arms from spinning.
The upper basket has height adjustable racks. They are designed to increase the capacity of the
upper basket. You can place your glasses and cups on the racks. Thanks to this feature, you can
place different sizes of glasses under the racks. In addition, you can place long forks, knives and
spoons on these racks laterally, so that they do not block the
spinning of the spray arm.
Different ways of loading the baskets are shown on the next pages.
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE UPPER BASKET
The upper basket is in the upper position. When it is in this position, you can place large items, such as pots and large plates, on the
lower basket. When the upper basket is in the lower position, you can place large plates in the upper basket.Adjust the height of the
upper basket only when it is empty.
Use the runners to adjust the height of the basket. Open the basket track latch by turning them sideways. Take the basket out of the
guiding rails. Place the other runners in the guiding rails and push the basket back in the rails. Close the track latches. You have now
placed the upper basket in the lower position.
THE LOWER BASKET
The lower basket has folding racks. This makes it easier for you to place more large items if you don't have many plates to clean. If
needed, each part can be folded separately , or all of them can be folded and larger spaces can be obtained. You can uses the folding
racks by raising them upwards, or by folding them.
