Loading the dishwasher

Upper basket
For safety reasons, do not oper‐
ate the dishwasher without the upper
and lower baskets in place (except
when running the
Tall items
program,
if available).
Use the upper basket for small, light‐
weight and delicate items such as
cups, saucers, glasses, dessert
bowls, etc.
Shallow pans or casserole dishes can
also be placed in the upper basket.
Long items such as soup ladles, mix‐
ing spoons, and long knives should
be placed lying down across the front
of the upper basket.
Adjustable cup rack (depending on
model)
Raise the rack to make room for tall
items.
Glasses can be arranged along the po‐
sitioning rail of the cup rack to give
them some support during the pro‐
gram.
Lower the cup rack and lean the
glasses against it, or double stack
smaller pieces.
Hinged spikes
The rows of spikes can be lowered to
make more room for larger items such
as casserole dishes.
Press the yellow lever downwards
and then lower the spikes
.
