Asko D3350 manual Loading the Baskets, Loading the Upper Basket, Loading the Lower Basket

LOADING THE BASKETS

Your new dishwasher features ASKO’s Super Cleaning System™. This means that after prewash, mainwash and intermediate rinse the water is drained out and the cycle contiues with clean water.

If you plan to start your dishwasher right away, it’s not necessary to rinse the dishes. You do, however, need to scrape off the large particles of food before loading.

LOADING THE UPPER BASKET

After you have scraped off the large food particles, place glasses, cups, saucers, bowls and small plates in the upper basket, as illustrated.

Load stemware with the stem fitted inside one of the grooved tines on the stemware rack.

The fold-down cup shelf on the right side of the basket gives you an additional place to stack cups and small bowls. You can also stack cups and small bowls on the stemware rack.

This model has a knife stop on the front of the upper basket. This gives you a safe place to load long utensils and knives that won’t fit in the silverware basket. The knife stop prevents knives or utensils from damaging the door when you open and close it.

NOTE: When loading sharp items, always be careful not to cut the rack coating.

LOADING THE LOWER BASKET

Load larger items in the lower basket, such as, dinner plates, pots and pans, serving dishes, and casseroles. Be sure to load dishware facing downward or toward the center of the dishwasher.

LOADING THE SILVERWARE BASKET

The silverware basket is designed with eight compartments to help keep the silverware separated. Load silverware with the handles downwards and spread it out as much as possible to avoid nesting. For safety, load sharp knives with the handles up.

Avoid placing silverware made of different materials (e.g., silver and stainless) in the same compartment because of the risk of discoloration. (See page 14.)

Small Items Containment Lid

The silverware basket has a lid in the middle that snaps down over the compartments to its left or right to contain small, lightweight items that might slip through the rack tines or get washed out of the basket. The small items lid is slotted, so you also could use it to keep silverware separated, such as teaspoons.

When loading silverware, try to avoid nesting the spoons and forks.
