Loading your appliance
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps
of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently
reducing the performance.
Do not load very small items which
can fall through the baskets.
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the
dishes.
The lower basket
The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids,
plates (up to 27 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cutlery
etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around
the edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm
can turn freely.
The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be
easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and
bowls.
To lower the prongs:
Slightly pull them upward and let them drop
down (see picture).
To bring them back to the standing position, just
pull them up again.
The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an
upright position are a potential
hazard.
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery
such as carvings 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.
Teaspoons may be loaded into the special slots provided
in the cutlery basket handle.
Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from
sticking together.
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel
cutlery. Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the
others.
