UPPER BASKET

It is recommended to load the upper basket with small- or medium-sized items such as glasses, small plates, tea or coffee cups, shallow bowls and light objects made from heat resistant plastic. If the upper basket is used in the lowermost position, it can also be loaded with serving dishes, provided they are only slightly soiled.

The top basket is fitted (on the left) with two plastic racks which can be raised to make room for tall glasses, such as stem glasses.

On the right there are two cutlery racks designed to take knives and teaspoons; when not in use, they can be left vertical, attached to the basket.

To use the space designed for teaspoons, remove the insert as shown in the illustrations.

LOADING THE UPPER BASKET

Load plates facing forward; cups, bowls etc. must always be facing downwards. The left-hand side of the basket can be loaded with two layers of cups and glasses. The centre can be filled with plates and side- plates, fitted upright into the supports provided.
