Loading the racks

Tips

Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and containers. No preventive rinsing is needed under running water.

Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely. Make sure that the lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the sprayer arms from rotating. Place any small items in the cutlery rack.

Since plastic dishes and non-stick frying pans usually retain more water drops, their drying will be not so good as that of ceramic or stainless-steel dishes.

Lightweight items such as plastic containers should be placed in the upper rack and arranged so that they cannot move.

After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can rotate freely.

Several dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sectors*.

or in a horizontal position (lower) to load pans and salad bowls easily.

Cutlery basket

The modular basket can slide to optimise the space inside the lower rack. It is equipped with top grilles for improved cutlery arrangement.

Lower rack

The lower rack can hold pans, lids, dishes, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Large plates and lids should be placed at the sides of the rack.

Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing downwards or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-up compartments on the upper rack

Upper rack

Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery such as glasses, cups, saucers and shallow salad bowls.

Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower rack because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher washing performance.
