Load cutlery and dishes
The lower basket
The lower basket is designed to take sauce- pan, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery ect. Service dishes and large lids should be ar- ranged around the edge of the basket, en- suring that the spray arms can turn freely.
The rows of prongs in the lower basket can lie flat to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.
The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives.
Forks and spoons should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards and the knives with their handles facing upwards.
If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards. Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together.
To make loading of the cutlery basket easier, lower the cutlery basket handle.
