General information
Remove coarse food residues from
crockery.
There is no need to pre-rinse items
under running water.

Damage can be caused by ash,
sand, wax, lubricating grease, or
paint.
These substances will contaminate
the dishwasher and can then no
longer be removed.
Do not wash items soiled with these
substances in the dishwasher.
Dishes can be loaded anywhere in the
baskets. However, please try to observe
the following notes:
- Do not place dishes and utensils
inside other items where they will
cover one another.
- Load the crockery so that water can
access all surfaces. This ensures that
they will get properly cleaned.
- Make sure that all items are securely
positioned.
- Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
and saucepans etc. must be inverted
in the baskets.
- Tall and narrow, hollow items such as
champagne glasses should be
placed in the centre of the basket
rather than in the corners. This
ensures the hollow items are more
easily accessed by the water jets.
- Wide based items should be placed
at an angle so that water can run off
them freely.
- The spray arms must not be blocked
by items that are too tall or hang
through the baskets. Test for free
movement by manually rotating the
spray arms.
- Make sure that small items cannot
fall through the holders in the
baskets.
Small items such as lids should
therefore be placed in the cutlery tray
or cutlery basket (depending on
model).
Some foods such as carrots,
tomatoes, or tomato sauce may
contain natural dyes. These dyes can
discolour plastic items in the
dishwasher if large quantities of these
foods are in contact with the crockery
inside the machine. The stability of
plastic items is not affected by this
discolouration.
Washing silverware can also cause
plastic items to discolour.
