Loading the dishwasher
Release the catch and open the door. Before
loading the dishwasher scrape and wipe crockery
to remove larger particles of food, which can cause
the filter to become clogged. Also wipe away heavy
grease or fat deposits.
Hard dried or baked on food may require soaking
before machine washing. This will eliminate the
need for extra wash cycles.
Make sure that the filter is properly located
inside the bottom of the dishwasher before
loading the basket – see Figure 7 on page 9.
Pull out the wire washer basket to load the
dishwasher.
Using the rack
The dishwasher is designed to hold four complete
place settings. If you choose to use it for other
difficult to clean items (e.g. saucepans and serving
dishes) place them face down on the bottom of the
rack where they are directly exposed to spray from
the rotating arm.
If you are in any doubt about machine washing
your crockery and utensils do not wash them in
the dishwasher.
Cutlery rack
When loading the cutlery rack keep knives and
other sharp utensils away from the door seals. It is
also wise to load carving knives etc with their
handles uppermost.
After loading the dishwasher check that the spray
arm turns freely.
Detergent
Use any standard dishwasher detergent in powder
or tablet form.
Rinse aid
Use any standard rinse aid. Unscrew the cap and
fill the container periodically using the measuring
cup provided. You can check the level of the rinse
aid using the sight glass (Figure 5). Do not overfill
the container.

Energy saving tips
• Run the dishwasher when it is fully loaded in order to save energy.
• Choose the right wash cycle. The choice of cycle depends on the type of dishware, cookware and
utensils being washed and how dirty they are.
