Adjusting the height of the upper rack
The height of the upper rack can be adjusted: high position
to place bulky crockery in the lower rack and low position to
make the most of the tip-up compartments by creating more
space upwards.
It is strongly recommended to never adjust height position
when the rack is loaded.
NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only.
If the rack is equipped with a Lift-Up
device
(seefigure)
, lift it
up by holding its sides. To restore the lower position, press the
levers(A) at the sides of the rack and follow the rack down.
Sliding third rack
The upper rack is fitted with a sliding third rack which can be
used to hold small crockery and cutlery.
For optimum washing performance, avoid positioning bulky
crockery directly below the rack. The sliding third rack can
be removed.
