Adjusting the height of the upper rack
In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper rack
may be moved to a higher or lower position.
The height of the upper rack should be adjusted WHEN THE
RACK IS EMPTY.
NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only.
If the rack is equipped with a
Lift-Up
device
*
(see figure)
, 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.
Unsuitable crockery
• Wooden crockery and cutlery.
• Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique
crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high
temperatures.
• Copper and tin crockery.
• Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of
glass (e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number
of wash cycles too.
Damage to glass and crockery
Caused by:
• Type of glass and glass production process.
• Chemical composition of detergent.
• Water temperature of rinse cycle.
Tips:
• Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the
manufacturer as dishwasher safe.
• Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery.
• Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as
the wash cycle is over.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height based on requirements:
high position to place bulky crockery in the lower rack and low
position to make the most of the tip-up compartments/sectors
by creating more space upwards.
Tip-up compartments with adjustable position
The side tip-up compartments can be positioned at three
different heights to optimize the arrangement of crockery inside
the rack.
Wine glasses can be placed safely in the tip-up compartments
by inserting the stem of each glass into the corresponding slots.
Cutlery tray
*
Some dishwasher models are fitted with a sliding tray which
can be used to hold serving utensils or small cups. For optimum
washing performance avoid positioning bulky crockery directly
below the tray. The cutlery tray can be removed
(see Figure).
Before loading the tray, make sure the supports are properly
coupled to the upper rack
(see Figure).
