Loading the dishwasher
38
Cutlery tray / cutlery basket
(depending on model)
See “Loading examples” under
“Loading the dishwasher” for
examples of how to load dishware and
cutlery.
Load the cutlery into the 3D MultiFlex
Tray or into the cutlery basket
(depending on the model).
Loading the 3D MultiFlex Tray
To make unloading easier, cutlery
should be grouped in zones, one for
knives, one for forks, one for spoons,
etc.
Spoon heads should be placed in
contact with at least one of the serrated
retainers on the base of the cutlery tray
to ensure that water runs off them
freely.
If spoon handles do not fit between
the holders, then lay them the other
way round.
You can push the left insert to the
middle in order to accommodate tall
items and long stemmed glasses in the
upper basket.
You can put large and long cutlery in
the recessed middle part of the tray.
Arrange tall items (such as cake
server) so that they do not block the
upper spray arm.
You can adjust the height of the right-
hand insert to create more space in the
right-hand part of the tray for larger
cutlery items or smaller dishware.
Pull the insert inward by the yellow
handle and click it into place in one of
the two positions.
