John Lewis JLBIDW 1200 instruction manual Upper basket, Adjusting the height of the upper basket

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.

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

For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards.

Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

For glasses with long stems (according to the size and dimensions), upset the glass holder to the left-hand or right-hand position.

In case you need to load dishes in the upper basket, the glass holder must be in the right-hand position.

In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket:

load them starting from the rear positions of the basket; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.

Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.

Adjusting the height of the upper basket

If washing very large plates you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.

	Maximum height of the dishes in
	upper basket	lower basket
With upper basket raised	20 cm	31 cm
With upper basket lowered	24 cm	27 cm

To move to the higher position proceed as follows:

1.Pull out the basket until it stops.

2.Carefully lift both sides upwards until the mechanism is engaged and the basket is stable.

Important!

Never lift or lower the basket on one side only

When the basket is in the higher position you will not be able to use the cup rack(s).

To lower the basket to the original position proceed as follows:

1.Pull out the basket until it stops.

2.Carefully lift both sides upwards and then allow the mechanism to drop back down slowly, keeping hold of it.

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