User instructions

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.

To make full use of the space available, the top basket has two plastic grids that can be lifted to make room for tall glasses such as stem glasses.

LOADING THE UPPER BASKET

Load the dishes with the top side facing forwards; cups and concave containers should always be loaded with the opening facing down. The left side of the basket can be loaded with cups and glasses on two levels. In the centre section, plates and saucers can be loaded vertically into the supports provided.
