Using your appliance
Loading your appliance
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing the performance.
Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets.
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
The lower basket
The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can turn freely.
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 to use the cutlery grids
provided (if the size and the dimensions of the 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.

cup racks.
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.
The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard.
These items should only be placed in the removable knife basket.
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives.
Removable knife basket
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be placed horizontally in the removable knife basket, which is positioned at the rear of the upper basket.

Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards.
In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket:
load them starting from the rear positions of the basket, tilting them forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.
