Hotpoint LTF 11S112 manual Third rack, Adjusting the height of the upper rack, Unsuitable crockery

	Third rack
GB
	The third rack was designed to house the cutlery. Arrange the
	cutlery as shown in the figure.

“Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be positioned with the blades facing downwards.”

A separate arrangement of the cutlery makes collection easier after washing and improves washing and drying performance. The geometry of the rack makes it possible to place such small items as coffee cups in the area in the middle.

The third basket is equipped with two sliding side trays to make the most of the height of the space below.

*Only available in selected models.

The upper rack can be adjusted for height based on requirements: high position to place bulky crockery in the lower rack and low position to make the most of the tip-up dispensers/ sectors by creating more space upwards.

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 position.

The height of the upper rack should be adjusted WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.

NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only.

If the rack is equipped with a Lift-Up device* (see figure), lift it up by holding its sides. To restore the lower position, press the levers (A) at the sides of the rack and follow the rack down.

The upper rack cannot be used in the high position and with the tip-up compartments closed in a vertical position.

•Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.
