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.

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.

Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets.

Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.

Arrange items on and underneath the cup rack so that water can reach all surfaces.

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

Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged

so they do not move.

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.

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.

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.Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket outward and slide the basket out.

2.Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops

(A)in their original position.

RC01

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 cup rack.

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