The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard.
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives.
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards. If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards.
Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together.
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.

With upper basket raised | 20 cm | 31 cm |

With upper basket lowered | 25 cm | 27 cm |

To move to the higher position proceed as follows:
For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grids provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it).
The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts, slide them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them apart. To reassemble, reverse the procedure.

After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard.
The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 25 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses.
Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces.
Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the cup racks.
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

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.
