Loading the racks, Lower rack and cutlery basket

Loading the racks

Before loading the racks, remove all food residue from crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.

After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can rotate freely.

Lower rack and cutlery basket

The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery, etc. Large plates and lids should ideally be placed at the sides of the rack.

Several dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sections*, which can be used in a vertical position when arranging plates or in a horizontal position when arranging saucepans, salad bowls and frying pans.

The type of cutlery basket may vary (modular or non-modular) according to the dishwasher model. The non-modular basket must only be positioned at the front of the lower rack.

Both are fitted with grilles over the top, for improved cut- lery arrangement.

Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing downwards, or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-up compartments on the upper rack.

*Only available in selected models. The number and position may vary.

Upper rack

Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery: glasses,	EN
cups, saucers and shallow salad bowls.

Adjustable position tip-up compartments

The tip-up compartments can be positioned at different heights, to optimise the arrangement of crockery throughout the rack. Wine glasses can be

placed safely in the tip-up

compartments, by inserting

the stem of each glass into the

corresponding slots.

Adjusting the height of the upper rack

In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper rack may be moved to a higher or lower level.

The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted

WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.

NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only.

Open the left and right guide rail stops and pull out the rack; position it higher or lower as required, slide it along the guide rails until the front wheels are in place and close the stops (see figure).

If the rack is fitted with Dual Space handles* (see figure), pull out the upper rack until it reaches its stop point, grip the handles at the sides of the rack and move it upwards or downwards, then slowly let it fall back into place.

Items that should not be washed in the dishwasher

•Wooden items, objects with wooden or horn handles or glued- on parts.

•Items made from aluminium, copper, brass, pewter or tin.

•Items made from plastic material which is not heat-resistant.

•Antique or hand-painted porcelain.

•Antique silver. Silver that is not antique may, however, be washed in the dishwasher using a delicate wash cycle, provided that it does not come into contact with other metals.

We recommend the use of crockery which is dishwasher safe.
