D ISHWASHER

Loading your Dishwasher

Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the larger food particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results in reduced perfor- mance.

If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they be allowed to soak before they are washed. This will elimi- nate the need for extra wash cycles.

Pull out the racks to facili- tate 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.

How to Use the Lower Rack

We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, pans, 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 top down.

-Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.

How to adjust the Upper

rack ...

The top rack can be adjusted using the two rack heights (top and bottom). To adjust the rack, open up the tabs that lock the guides and pull out the rack. Arrange the rack with the back wheels in either the top or bottom position and then insert it along the guides until the front wheels are on A as well. Close the tabs to lock the rack in place (see Fig. F).
