Cutlery tray*

Some dishwasher models are fitted with a sliding tray which can be used to hold serving utensils or small cups. For optimum washing performance avoid positioning bulky crockery directly below the tray. The cutlery tray can be removed (see Figure).

Before loading the tray, make sure the supports are properly coupled to the upper rack (see Figure).

The upper rack can be adjusted for height based on requirements: high position to place bulky crockery in the lower rack and low position to make the most of the tip-up compartments/sectors by creating more space upwards.

Adjusting the height of the upper rack

In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper rack may be moved to a higher or lower position.

The height of the upper rack should be adjusted WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.

NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only.

If the rack is equipped with a Lift-Updevice* (see figure), lift it up by holding its sides. To restore the lower position, press the levers (A) at the sides of the rack and follow the rack down.

Unsuitable crockery

Wooden crockery and cutlery.

Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.

Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high temperatures.

Copper and tin crockery.

Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink. The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass (e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of wash cycles too.

Damage to glass and crockery

Caused by:

Type of glass and glass production process.

Chemical composition of detergent.

Water temperature of rinse cycle.

Tips:

Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufacturer as dishwasher safe.

Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery.

Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the wash cycle is over.
