CUTLERY BASKET

This varies in shape according to the model and features either a single compartment or separate compartments.

The cutlery should be arranged in an orderly manner inside the basket, with the handles pointing downwards. Take care during loading to avoid injury from the knife blades.

The basket is suitable for all types of cutlery, except those long enough to interfere with the upper spray arm.

Ladles, wooden spoons and cooking knives can be placed in the upper basket, making sure that the knife blades do not protrude from the basket.

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.

With fixed metal cup rack

To make the most of the space inside the basket, certain models are equipped with two lift-up plastic racks.
