Loading the dishwasher
CAUTION!
Risk of injury!
Knives and other pointed or sharp-
edged objects can cause injuries.
■
Knives and other sharp utensils must
be placed in the basket with the tip
pointing downwards or in a horizon-
tal position.
■
Ensure that children do not load such
objects which may cause injury into
the appliance.
■
Load the appliance in such a way
that no objects which may cause in-
jury fall out of the dish racks when
the appliance is next opened and the
dish racks are removed.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
Long objects which protrude from the
dish racks may block the spraying arms
or damage the seals. The dishes are not
suffi ciently cleaned.
■
Ensure that long objects are posi-
tioned only horizontally in the dish
racks.
■
Place dishes in the dish racks in such a
way that none of the objects can slip
out of the dishwasher when it is next
opened or slip out of the dish racks
during operation.
■
Use the height adjustment function
for the upper dish rack.
• Remove large and stuck-on scraps of
food from the dishes so that the sieve and
filter do not become blocked.
• Soak dishes with dried-on or burnt-on
foods in water before placing them in the
dishwasher.
• Position the dishes with the opening to
the bottom so that the water can run off
(e.g. for glasses).
