Loading the Dishwasher
Starting the Appliance
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the large food particle to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have
Pull out the rack to facilitate loading the dishwasher.
How to Use the Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height. (See fig.B)
Starting a wash cycle

Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.
How to Use the Lower Rack
We recommend that you place the items which are the most diffi- cult to clean items on the lower rack: pots, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
-Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.
-Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
-The silverware basket can be doubled (see fig.A) so that only one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This also makes space for additional pots and pans on the lower rack.
-Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Espe- cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.
