The upper basket

The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses.

If dishes are loaded in the upper basket, tilt them forwards.

Arrange items on and underneath the fold-down cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces.

Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the raised cup racks.

For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards.

Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.

Adjusting the height of the upper basket

If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.

To move to the higher position proceed as follows:

1.Pull out the basket until it stops.

2.Carefully lift both sides upwards until the mechanism is engaged and the basket is stable.

When the top basket is in the higher position it will only take plates up to 20 cm in diameter and you will not be able to use the raised cup racks.

To lower the basket to the original position proceed as follows:

1.Pull out the basket until it stops.

2.Carefully lift both sides upwards and the allow the mechanism to drop back slowly, keeping hold of it.

Never lift or lower the basket on one side only.

After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard.
