Load cutlery.
For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it).
Load upper basket. Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.
Place knives and other items of cutlery with sharp points or edges with their handles facing upwards.
Risk of injury!
For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards.
Load the lower basket.
Arrange serving dishes and large lids around the edge of the basket.
If plates are to be loaded in the upper basket: load them starting from the rear positions; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.
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 |
