Loading the Dishwasher, How to Use the Lower Rack

Loading the Dishwasher

Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the larger food particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results in reduced performance.

If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they be allowed to soak before they are washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.

Pull out the racks to facilitate loading the dishwasher.

How to Use the Lower Rack

We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

-Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed top down.

-Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.

If the basket is the one with side inserts, then insert the tea spoons one by one into the slots (see figure A). Knives and utensils with sharp blades or tips should be positioned with the sharp parts at the bottom.

Position all cutlery items so that they don't touch.

- Especially long utensils should be placed in the horizon- tal position at the front of the upper rack.

How to Use the Upper Rack

The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).

-Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.

How to adjust the Upper rack ...

The top rack can be adjusted using the two rack heights (top and bottom). To adjust the rack, open up the tabs that lock the guides and pull out the rack. Arrange the rack with the back wheels in either the top or bottom position and then insert it along the guides until the front wheels are on as well. Close the tabs to lock the rack in place (see Fig. F).
