Loading the Dishwasher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the large food
particle to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results
in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to
remove, we recommend that they be allowed to soak before they
are washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycle.
Pull out the rack to facilitate loading the dishwasher.
How to Use the Lower Rack
We recommend that you place the items which are the most diffi-
cult to clean items on the lower rack: pots, lids, serving dishes and
bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the
racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
- The silverware basket can be doubled (see fig.A) so that only
one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This
also makes space for additional pots and pans on the lower
rack.
- Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the
handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons
should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Espe-
cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at
the front of the upper rack.
How to Use the Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter
dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as
well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are
not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved
by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height. (See fig.B)
Shelf
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf-not
against other items to be washed(see fig.C).

Starting the Appliance
Starting a wash cycle
- Make sure that the plug for the appliance is inserted into the wall
socket.
- Make sure that the water supply is turned on to full pressure.
- Load the dishwasher (see the section entitled, "Loading the
Dishwasher").
- Pour in the detergent (see the section entitled, "Salt, Detergent
and Rinse Aid").
- Turn the knob located on the right of the control panel in the
clockwise direction until the number or symbol for the cycle sec-
tion entitled, "Wash Cycle Table").
- Press the ON-OFF button, and the ON-OFF light will turn on. At
this point, the wash cycle will begin.
Cancelling or modifying a wash cycle setting
Press the ON-OFF button and the ON Light will turn off. Rotate
the knob in the clockwise direction to the desired cycle setting
(see the section entitled, "Starting a wash cycle..."). Then, turn
the dishwasher back on using the ON-OFF button.
At the end of the wash cycle
When the knob stops turning and is aligned with a STOP mark
(see figure), the cycle has finished. Turn off the appliance using
the ON-OFF button, turn off the water supply and open the door
of the dishwasher.
Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid
handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more
susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.
