The upper basket

The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 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. For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards.

Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.

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.

To move to the higher position proceed as follows:

1.Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket outwards and slide the basket out.

2.Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops

(A) in their original position.

When the basket is in the higher position you will not be able to use the cup rack(s).

After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard.

Use of detergent

Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers.

We recommend the use of Finish detergents.

Using no more than the correct amount of detergent contributes to reducing pollution.

Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.

Fill with detergent

1.If the lid is closed: press release button (1). The lid springs open.

2.Fill the detergent dispenser (2) with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels:

20 = approximately 20 g of detergent

30 = approximately 30 g of detergent

3.All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent dose (5/10 g) that must be placed in the prewash detergent chamber (3). This detergent will take effect during the prewash phase.

4.Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
