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.
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards.
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.
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery. Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.
For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grids provided (if the size and dimensions of cutlery allow it).
The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts, slide them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them apart.
To reassemble, reverse the procedure.

The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 25 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses.
Arrange items on and underneath the
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.
In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket:
load them starting from the rear posiitons of the basket; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.
